Description:

What was once a tiny fishing village known for its charming pastel-colored houses has become one of the world's most exclusive resorts. Spend a day exploring Portofino and neighboring San Fruttuoso, with its magnificent 8th-century abbey and underwater Christ statue.

Marvel at the rolling green hills of the Tuscan landscape as you make your way north to the Tigullio Gulf. You're welcomed with a delicious local appetizer that you can eat in the village's main piazza overlooking the harbor. With your guide, explore the resort, keeping your eyes peeled for A-listers that often visit the area looking for a quiet, exclusive escape. Visit the charming San Giorgio church and the lighthouse that affords views you normally only see on postcards.

Hop aboard a small boat and make your way along the scenic coastline toward San Fruttuoso, which is completely inaccessible by car. Explore the charmingly restored abbey and enjoy some free time to fill in the sun and perhaps take a dip in the crystal-clear waters before making your way back to Florence.
