Genoa Walking Tour + Strada Nuova Museums
Guided walking tour of Genoa
We will start our guided walking through the historic center of Genoa next to the tourist information office located on via Garibaldi. From here, we will head to the nearby Piazza San Lorenzo, where you will see the beautiful exterior facade of Genoa cathedral. Did you know that its two front towers are not the same height?
Just behind the temple, we will encounter another iconic landmark of Genoa, the Doge's Palace. After appreciating the details of its elegant exterior architecture we continue our walk to the Carlo Felice Theatre: the principle Opera House of Genoa. Standing in front of its magnificent neoclassical entrance, you will hear all about the most successful performances staged at this prestigious venue.
The walking tour ends on Via Garibaldi, the street where you will find the fabulous Strada Nuova museums.
Tickets for the Strada Nuova museums
At the end of the walking tour of Genoa, we will give you the tickets for the Strada Nuova Museums which you can explore at your own pace in the way you want.
