Discover the Flavors of the Ligurian Riviera
This guided Portofino food tour combines cultural discovery with authentic tastings across some of the most charming seaside towns of the Ligurian Riviera.
During the experience, we explore:
Portofino
Santa Margherita Ligure
Camogli
Rapallo
Each village offers a different atmosphere — from refined harbors to authentic fishing traditions — and each stop reveals a different taste of Liguria.
This is not a generic tasting tour.
It is a curated culinary journey through local history and daily life.
What You Will Taste
Throughout the tour, we stop at selected artisan bakeries and traditional producers to sample:
Farinata – classic Ligurian chickpea flatbread
Focaccia Ligure – soft, olive-oil rich and lightly salted
Focaccia al Formaggio – thin layers filled with fresh creamy cheese
Biscotti Camogliesi – traditional pastries from Camogli
Tastings are carefully distributed during the walk and connected to the story of each coastal village.
How We Travel Between Villages
