Also known as an e-bike, an electric bike functions like a regular bike, but it's equipped with an electric motor to give you an extra bit of propulsion when you need it. After meeting your experienced guide at the pier for a brief safety lesson, you'll put on your helmet and hop on your e-bike. With the guide in the lead, your group of 12 or less will take off at the cycle path that leads to Palazzo San Giorgio, a Renaissance masterpiece that was once the seat of the St. George's Bank, one of the oldest financial institutions in Medieval Europe. You'll continue along Corso Italia, Genoa's main promenade that leads to Boccadasse, a 1,000-year-old fishing village nestled between charming pastel houses. Along the way, you'll pause for a refreshing bottle of water and a slice of delicious focaccia. On the way back to the ship, you'll return along the same scenic route.
