Feriehus i Amoa

The Gulf of the Poets, named after Lord Byron and Shelley who lived here and took inspiration from its beauty, is dominated by Portovenere and the 3 Islands (Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto), which all are part of Unesco World Heritage Sites. The 3 small inaccessible Islands are located just in front of Portovenere, the pearl of the Gulf, and are rich in vegetation and animals. Their beauty, especially at sunset, is breathtaking! With a 1 hour tour, starting from the port of La Spezia (Banchina Revel), I'll guide you through the hidden gems of the Gulf and the 3 Islands: • Torre Scola, a 16th century military fort built at the center of the Gulf and damaged during the Napoleonic wars • Portovenere, the true pearl of the Gulf, with it enchanted village and San Pietro ancient romanic church, known as the world's most beautiful one • "Azzurra" grotto in Palmaria, shining gold at sunset • The Tino old-lighthouse, one of the few remaining in Europe • "Madonna Stella Maris" statue emerging from the sea outside Tinetto • The dismissed cableway used until the II World Wars to load the marble from the local quarry • The many unique military installations from the 1st and 2nd World Wars Other things to note We'll wait for you at the boarding point (HopHop Boat - Piattaforma Galleggiante), 10 minutes before the departure time. From late September forward, I suggest who feels cold to put something warmer on.

My guests will enjoy one of the best views of the hillside in Cinque Terre, enjoy local specialties and listen to my Bach played live on the piano. The focus of this year, 2021, will be J. S. Bach's Goldberg Variations and Six Partitas. I will drive my guests up to my property, inside the National Park of Cinque Terre, where they will visit a young vineyard, learn about the building techniques of the old dry stone walls that are peculiar to this area and hear some historical background of what makes our area so unique. Afterwards, they will taste food, a selection of wines and my homemade lemon liqueurs while enjoying classical piano music played live. Then I will drive them back to the village. In light of the recent global events, I will only be able to accept a maximum of 5 guests per session and the whole event will take place outdoors, on my terrace above the vines, where individual tables will be positioned in such a way as to guarantee the prescribed social distancing. As it will be impossible to organise the event indoors, if the weather does not allow for an enjoyable outdoor setting the event will be cancelled and our guests entirely reimbursed. For updates, check out our website: bachyard.com Bring along your camera, drinking water and an umbrella/blanket according to the weather. During these strange times you are also, unfortunately, required to bring a face mask.
