    Working out a last minute Change

    I would like to preface my review by saying that I made a mistake by booking my tour on the wrong day for the Genoa cruise stop. I booked it for the following day at La Spezia. I panicked and called the tour company. Fabio was great and was able to make the pick up in Genoa, but had to switch to another driver. We were picked up on time by Silvio with a nice clean and comfortable car for our party of 8. The places where we stopped were beautiful. Our first stop was Santa Margherita Ligure where we enjoyed walking through the shops. Our next stop was a short ride away to the town of Portofino with many shops, beautifully colored buildings and restaurants. We did some shopping and had lunch at a lovely restaurant called Delfino. Silvio picked us up promptly at the agreed time. Our last stop was the church of Santa Lorenzo. It was beautiful, surrounded by beautiful buildings and fountains. Our tour guide was basically a driver. He did not speak much and when asked about certain places, he was vague or did not have the answer. My husband had to give him the address of the church. Silvio was very nice, but I believe he was substituted because of the last minute change. Regardless, I would recommend Autonoleggio Fabio Marco’s excursion company. I believe he switched the driver to accommodate the last minute change.

    Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Spezia.

    How much does Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,313 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in La Spezia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in La Spezia is not rushed.

    Is Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in La Spezia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in La Spezia can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in La Spezia and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central La Spezia within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in La Spezia?

    +

    On Outty we rank every La Spezia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include La Spezia: Taste Cinque Terre on a Food Tour by Do Eat Better, Cinque Terre Sunset Boat Tour : golden hour on the water, Cinque Terre Sunset Boat Tour Experience with Aperitivo and Swim. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit La Spezia?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in La Spezia?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; On-board WiFi; and Bottled water. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 29 listed pickup locations in and around La Spezia. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Full Day Private Tour: Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure if the weather is bad?

    +
