Nervi - Riviera in the city

Itineraries, guided tours, workshops, watersports

Different experiences to immerse yourself in the natural harmony of Nervi, while enjoying the scenery and life of the Riviera in the City, at a leisurely pace.

Discover the village of Nervi, with its stunningly beautiful landscapes, in a walking tour that from the marina will take you to the passeggiata – its picturesque promenade – historical parks and modern art museums; during olfactory walking tours, sniff your way through the fragrances of the paintings in the museum collections, as well as of plants and flowers in the parks; learn about ancient crafts and trades traditionally linked to sea-life and to the growing of local produce by attending experiential workshops encompassing both the sea and the hills; get the most picturesque views of Nervi’s amazing cliffs through outdoor sports.

Tasting the sea

Full immersion in ancient Ligurian crafts and trades traditionally linked to sea-life, listening to stories of fishermen, carpenters, woodcutters and line makers (cordanieri). The partecipants will learn firsthand how to brine anchiovies, preparing their own small jar, in the picturesque cave in the ancient Collegio Emiliani’s Darsena (dry dock).
