Traveler reviews

I wouldn’t recommend the Genoa City Sightseeing Bus as a shore excursion. It was overcrowded and didn’t provide much value, making it a poor use of the limited time in port.
Top-notch experience
Great experience today on board the Citysightseeing Genoa! In particular, the assistant Marta was very kind and super helpful to us; highly recommended for getting around the city comfortably and not having to worry about parking :)

I would advise taking an excursion rather than staying in the port city. I found Genoa to be dirty with a lot of traffic. The only part of the route that I enjoyed is when it took me to the resort area of town.
Wonderful experience
Francesca was excellent, very welcoming. She stands out for her friendliness and availability.
If it looks like a busy day, don’t risk it!!
The buses are very crowd dependent and the tour company does not stop selling tickets when they reach their max. To be fair, my husband took this very bus tour 2 years ago in July. He had a good experience and recommended it highly. However, today we arrived by cruise ship. There was at least one other ship in port. We paid 50 euros for 2 tickets and COULD NEVER USE THEM. The line to get on at the port was so huge it would have filled probably 4 empty busses. And, with mostly full busses arriving every 20-30 minutes we finally gave up and took a taxi into a central area where there was another bus stop. Here again, busses were mostly full with 40 people waiting and 2-4 allowed on at a stop. Some people had a wristband for priority boarding (didn’t know you could do that or we would have) and most of them were also left in the dust. After waiting through 3 busses with no hope of boarding, we gave up and took a taxi back to the ship. Honestly, I’m wondering if I should do a charge back on my card for this service we could not use.
