Wander the harbor town's morning market and backstreets with someone who actually lives there, tasting focaccia and local wine along the way.
What to expect
You'll start at the covered market where your guide points out Ligurian specialties like farinata and fresh pesto ingredients, then wander past Villa Durazzo's gardens and down to the seafront. Stops include a family-run focaccia bakery and a small enoteca for a glass of local Vermentino. It ends at the harbor, an easy ferry ride back toward Rapallo.
Good to know
Go mid-morning when the market is liveliest; Santa Margherita is a short train or ferry ride from Rapallo, both running frequently through the day.
