What is the best way to get from a cruise ship (with luggage) to the Columbo airport and what is the average cost?

Hi All,

I have just moved to Genoa and have not yet figured out how to move myself in the local area from point A to point B. To date I have been walking miles in the hot August sun!. Does anyone know where I can get a bus itinerary that details all bus numbers and where they go? is there perhaps a website? Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi all,
We are going to Bolzano and Moena town for a festival at the first week of August. After the festival we want to go to Genova for some official meetings if we can arrange. But we dont know how to get Genova from Bolzano. Any train or bus going there? And how can we buy tickets in advance online? We also wonder how can we go to Milan from Genova?
Thanks!

can we get a bus from Genoa to the Cinque terre? If we can, how much does it cost and can we get on and off in the different villages?
Thank you very much for any information that you can give us. We appreciate it.

Are there any ferries that travel regularly from Cinque Terre to Genoa in Summer.

WE have a VERY eary flight out of Genoa and are looking for a clean, inexpensive hotel close to the airport. A nearby smaller town would be OK - we just need to be able to get a bus, train or taxi at 5:45am.

Hi everyone,

I'm thinking of visiting Genoa (and the surrounding area) many times this summer. I'm wondering if there are any nice beaches in the vicinity of Genoa. What about nice coastal towns near by? All suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Cheers

Hi. My daughter,who is 15, will be arriving in Genoa from Australia on 1st June, and starting an intensive 3 month Italian course on 5th June. We have joined easystanza, but most of the rooms are older students sharing together. Does anyone know how we might locate a room with a family (single or two parents with at least 1 child), as this would be more suitable for a young girl on her own, and would be better for learning the language faster.I phoned one from easystanza, but room had already gone. We will be joining her at the end of the course and travelling around Italy and Europe.

I am looking for cheap accommodation - meaning lower than 80 eur / double room - around Genoa, meaning I really want not to enter with my car in Genoa, but leave it at this b&b and take the train some 20-30 minutes, or maybe more to Genoa. I've seen guides recomending Santa Margherita Ligure, but the prices are high, or maybe Camogli, Recco, Bogliasco, anything that is nice and near the railway (well not exactly right near the trains). Can you tell me where to look for this? Tx!!

Hi,

I will be moving to Genoa the middle of May and I was wondering the easiest way to find a room to rent. Is it best to look in the local paper or are there any good websites I should check out? I will be staying from May 17th until September 1st. I am from a small surf town in California called Santa Cruz. I am looking to do some travel around Italy and this will be my third time in Genoa. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If I am coming from Nice, France... do I take a train to Genoa?

Travelling around Italy in May - June time, does anyone know if there will be a Sampdoria football match taking place? and if you have to book in advance?

Good Afternoon,

Let me introduce myself. My name is Neil Agnew, a 27 year old Northern Irishman. I am relocating to Savona, Italy, on the 24th April 2006, with my partner.

Therefore, I am currently looking for a position before I arrive. I am currently working as an IT support professional providing internet support to Eircom (Ireland's leading telecommunication company) customers. Does anyone know of any Native English Speaking positions or jobs within the tourism industry that may be suitable?

I am available for an interview immediately upon my arrival. Can send CV on request.

Any information you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Bye,

2) any good restaurant close by where to go?

How do I get from Genoa to Croatia? I have been looking all over and I cannot figure it out. I know you can ferry from Vienna to Dubravnik, but that is all I can find. There are non stop flights from Vienna, brussels, Frankfurt, and Amsterdam... Someone said you can drive but it looks like it is about 1500 km or am I just not finding the correct information??? Someone please help.

Thanks,
Kelly

Can anyone suggest a Hostel that gives a good rate for monthly stays?

Thanks in advance

Does anybody know where I could get a timetable for buses from Genoa to Nice?
I remember once I cought a navette to Nice just outside Stazione Principe in Genoa but it was a long time ago and I'm not sure it still exists. Many thanx!

how long does it take to get from milan, italy to genoa

what is the cheapest way to get from Bergamo airport to Genoa fast??

I need to get from Genoa to Lugano, Switzerland next Wednesday. Can you please let me know the easiest way to do it? It doesn't have to be the mostv cost effective way either, just the least hassle. How long would it take in a taxi and what is the approximate cost? How about trains? I looked at flying but it goes back into rome and then onto lugano. seems a bit daft to do it that way.
