Tour of historical shops and traditional flavours in Genoa

Discover the unique charm of Genoa's artisan workshops. Stroll with your tour guide in search of inimitable products made by hand and with passion.

There are about fifty historic workshops in Genoa: fry shops, sciamadde, cafeterias and pastry shops, with settings still intact from the 1800s, where you can sample all the local goodness. Taste focaccia, so unique that it is a candidate for World Heritage status, freshly baked in the city's best bakery.
Eat Farinata, the savory, thin, savory chickpea cake, and pànera, the coffee parfait typical of the capital.

And still discover clothing and textile stores, barbershops, pharmacies, and many other precious little stores where time seems to have stopped a century ago.
Walk through the narrow alleys of the historic center, the famous caruggi, among the elegant squares and ancient palaces, once the homes of noble Genoese families, where stores that preserve tradition now reside.
