The Italian Riviera still has secrets to share… if you know where to go. One of them is seaside Chiavari, ideally placed between Genoa and the Cinque Terre. From this base, we embark on a well-balanced blend of scenic walks, cultural landmarks and exquisite regional cuisine. You’ll sip wine with world-renowned producers, master pasta and pesto with professional chefs, and hike glorious trails. A free day to visit the Cinque Terre will be a must for most, while the pleasure of staying away from the tourists allows you to enjoy the Italian Riviera in peace.
One of Our Top Recommended Trips for 2026… Here’s Why
Forbes recently said Chiavari is ‘so delightful, authentic and complete as a holiday destination you can’t help but wonder why it hasn’t yet exploded with international travellers.’ I couldn’t agree more. If you want to explore the Riviera with the benefit of staying in Chiavari, 2026 is the time to go! − Hope Johnson, destination expert
