Escorted Rail Tours to Portofino
A pastel-coloured coastal fishing village
The resort of Portofino is considered to be one of the most
beautiful Mediterranean ports. The town has a stunning,
picture-postcard harbour surrounded by pastel-painted houses. The
town is really no more than a small fishing village, but thanks to
its unique beauty, it has become a popular tourist destination. An
excellent place to view the harbour is from the Castello Brown - a
16th Century fort (now principally a museum). Portofino's tiny main
square overlooks the harbour and is an absolutely terrific spot to
sit and watch the world go by.
