A private tour of the Conero Riviera

The Conero Riviera is the high, rocky stretch of Marche coast between Ancona and Numana, around Monte Conero. This 5-day tour is built around it: you stay by the sea in Portonovo, see the cliffs and coves from a boat, spend an evening in Sirolo and add two cultural visits, Ancona and Senigallia. Read our Conero Riviera guide and our Sirolo and Portonovo beaches guide before you go.

Who this tour is for

  • Couples and honeymooners who want the sea without the crowds of the bigger Italian coasts
  • Families and small groups of friends, up to 7 guests
  • Travelers who want beach time and culture in the same days, without driving
