F.A.Q.

Three Michelin-starred restaurants sit close to Porto Antico: Marin (at the old port, overlooking the water), The Cook, and San Giorgio. Marin is the most convenient, steps from most berths, and focuses on sustainable Ligurian seafood with a modern approach.

Trofie al pesto is the benchmark dish, and Trattoria Maria in the caruggi and Ristorante Zeffirino are longstanding addresses. Look for restaurants making it by mortar rather than blender, the difference is noticeable.

A former fishing village absorbed into Genoa’s eastern suburbs, colourful Ligurian houses, a pebble beach and fishing boats still hauled up. Fifteen minutes by taxi from Porto Antico; good for a walk and a gelato.

Yes, Genoa’s 16th-century banking families built their palaces here. Several are now museums, including Palazzo Rosso and Palazzo Bianco, which hold works by Rubens, Van Dyck and Caravaggio, easily a half-day in the old town.
