Liguria is the Italian Riviera!  

Italy is bordered by France, Switzerland and Austria to the north and by the Mediterranean Sea on the West and the Adriatic Sea on East. 

Italy is comprised of 20 individual regions.  Tuscany, Umbria, Sicily - are some of the regions that most people are familiar with.  The Liguria Region  is situated in the northwestern part of Italy. Liguria is the Italian Riviera and runs as you cross over from the French Riviera down the magnificent Mediterranean coast to a town called La Spezia.  There it is bordered by Tuscany.

Once you get here you'll wonder why you didn't visit sooner or why no one ever told you about it.  Well that's because most people know of or have visited the well traveled areas of Italy: Venice, Rome, the Tuscany region, etc. - but the sweeping Ligurian coastline with it's pastel colored villas is not as highly publicized.  Probably because the Ligurians prefer it that way.

Funny people - the Ligurians.  They're very private people so when you arrive you might get a bit of a cold shoulder, but once you've befriended them you'll have a friend for life. 

The peace and quite of the calm seaside towns which dot this beautiful area will help you recover from the every day strain of a hectic way of life.  You'll find yourself saying ... "maybe there is another way." 

As you mingle along the Italian Riviera (Liguria) you'll view some of the most spectacular sites and around every curve you'll witness the beauty of nature at the state of the art.  You will wonder if this is heaven on earth.  The crystal clear skies that contrast the deep blue sea and the quaint pastel houses nested upon the hills - make for a little white pin-light display every evening.  Now that's a picture!
