In the past many young people came to our country to complete their education. The "Italian Tour" gave them the opportunity of discovering, getting to know and appreciate the beauties of the different Italian regions.
Liguria, famous throughout the world for its climate and splendid landscapes, was one of the favourite tourist destinations, well known for the richness and variety of its panoramic views and scenic glimpses, small villages, romantic and picturesque corners, wild and unspoiled nature.

Even nowadays travelling throughout Liguria is a continuous search for hidden corners in a salt and sun smelling blooming nature.
Liguria is also rich in monuments which suddenly appear to your site and fascinate you for their amazing beauty, ancient defence towers stretching out towards the sky-blue immensity, small churches surrounded by cluster pine trees, oaks or chestnut woods, sanctuaries clinging to mountain peaks, miles of walks with stupendous panoramic views on sea and inland.
Then there are also trattorias and little restaurants where you can enjoy tasty dishes of traditional Ligurian cooking, colourful festivals, fairs, touristic, cultural and sports events, even international ones.

Each new day you discover a Liguria becoming always more beautiful, more rich, more appealing… a wealthy half moon of land between sky and sea, where there is always something new to discover and to love.
For some time now, the Liguria Region is following a strategy of preserving the natural beauty and the traditions of Liguria by carefully exploiting and revaluating the territory and adequately protecting the environment.

Liguria is not mainly based on tourism anymore, but has become a territory always more open to the world of culture and new horizons: every day new ideas and projects are coming up, shows and international exhibitions are starting up, new museums and art galleries are opening, performances and events of any kind are taking place, also on international level.

Liguria, not only sea but land to love "Liguria Terradamare" (Land to love) is a slogan that leads to the discovery of a land that, apart from bathing tourism, offers a lot more! It is, in fact, land and sea. Villages where time has stopped for centuries, woods filled with chestnuts, rich flavours and tastes of dishes that have created great recipes with typical products from its own territory. During the summer Liguria transforms itself in a natural stage that holds shows, festivals and concerts under the stars. But also autumn proposes different kinds of occasions for a different kind of vacation. Elements to be discovered. Liguria is a land that knows how to give strong feelings and emotions, a land to love!
