Genoa

Two-day Genoa city break from Switzerland via Frecciarossa train

Illustration of Genoa

Railtour Suisse operates this 2-day package to Genoa, Italy's principal port city and capital of the Liguria region, departing from Switzerland. The trip combines a Frecciarossa train journey in standard class with one night in a 4-star hotel in the city itself. Genoa straddles the Gulf of Genoa on the Mediterranean coast, with a population of nearly 600,000 and a harbour that has shaped its character for centuries. The package highlights include the Palazzi dei Rolli, Renaissance mansions built for the city's merchant families, and the Acquario di Genova, one of Europe's largest aquariums. The city's Mediterranean climate, Italian cuisine, and waterfront setting make it a straightforward escape for travellers new to rail travel or couples seeking a short city break without complex logistics.
