Tour description
This private e-bike experience from Portofino is a scenic journey through some of the most beautiful stretches of the Ligurian Riviera, blending gentle coastal riding, panoramic climbs, and authentic village life. The tour begins directly in Portofino, where you set off along the waterfront and follow the shoreline toward Santa Margherita Ligure. This first section is relaxed and immersive, passing noble villas, palm-lined promenades, and the scent of sea spray drifting from the bay.
The route gradually rises along a quiet road surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation, offering unforgettable views over the Gulf of Tigullio. With olive trees, terraces, and open sea framing the ride, the climb toward San Lorenzo della Costa showcases the natural beauty that defines this promontory. From here, the path leads to San Rocco di Camogli, one of the most striking viewpoints along the coast. The terrace opens over the Gulf of Paradise, revealing a sweeping panorama that extends all the way toward the western Riviera.
This is the perfect moment for a convivial break: Ligurian focaccia, sea views, and—if you wish—a sip of local white wine, following the tradition of the “second Genovese breakfast.” After the pause, the route continues with a scenic descent toward Recco and then into Camogli, the iconic fishing village known for its tall pastel houses, narrow lanes, and timeless maritime atmosphere. Here you enjoy an accompanied visit through the port, the seaside promenade, and the historic center, with additional free time depending on the day’s schedule.
The complete experience returns to the starting point, offering a balanced blend of coastal riding, hilltop panoramas, cultural stops, and quiet cycling moments surrounded by nature. With adjustable difficulty and distances, the tour is suitable for beginners and experienced cyclists alike. Guests must be at least 1.45 meters tall to ensure a safe and comfortable ride on the e-MTB.
This private e-bike adventure reveals the essence of the Portofino promontory: panoramic ridges, authentic villages, and the constant presence of the sea guiding you from one view to the next.
