About Liguria

Liguria's coastline rewards those who see it from the water: pastel villages stacked above the sea, sheltered coves reachable only by boat, and the glamour of Portofino at its most serene. A private charter turns the Riviera into your own itinerary, whether you spend the day swimming and dining aboard the Cinque Terre & Portovenere Boat Cruise with Open Bar, Food & Swim or glide along the Gulf of Tigullio on the Private Boat Tour: Portofino, Golfo Paradiso & Tigullio.

Frequently asked questions

A private tour means the boat and skipper are reserved for your group alone, so you set the pace and the swimming stops. VIP access options layer on extras such as an open bar, prepared food, or a longer route to more secluded coves. Both are premium experiences; choose private for flexibility and VIP for an all-inclusive day aboard.
