Concierge & On-Demand Services for Your Holiday in Tuscany and Liguria
Viaggi di Mare is more than a boat tour operator. Behind every itinerary on the water is a team that designs and manages the complete holiday experience — on land as well as at sea. Based in Marina di Massa and operating across the Versilia coast, the Gulf of Poets and the Ligurian Riviera, Viaggi di Mare offers a full range of concierge and on-demand services for international travellers who want their time in this part of Italy handled by people who know it well.
Every service is delivered by qualified specialists in their respective fields — not generalists. The same attention to detail that defines the boat tours applies to the transfers, the guided visits, the catering and every other element of a stay. The objective is always the same: to turn a good holiday into an exceptional one, without the guest having to coordinate the pieces themselves.
Transfer Services from Airports and Stations
Private transfers are available from all major arrival points in the region, covering the full distance between the transport network and your accommodation or marina:
- Airport transfers: Pisa Galileo Galilei, Florence Peretola, Parma Giuseppe Verdi
- Station transfers: all main rail stations in Tuscany and Liguria, including La Spezia, Viareggio, Forte dei Marmi, Massa and Carrara
- Car rental with driver: available for full-day or multi-day use, ideal for groups requiring flexible private transport throughout their stay
Guided Tours and Cultural Experiences
The coastline of northwestern Tuscany and the Ligurian Riviera holds considerably more than beaches and boat trips. Viaggi di Mare organises guided cultural and gastronomic experiences that give international guests access to the territory’s most compelling inland and coastal attractions:
- Marble quarries of Carrara — private tours inside the Apuan Alps quarries that have supplied artists from Michelangelo to the present day, with tastings of local products included
- City tours with licensed guides — for La Spezia, Lerici, Portovenere, Lucca and the surrounding area, in English and other languages
- Food and wine experiences — Ligurian and Tuscan gastronomy, from pesto and focaccia to Colline Lucchesi wines, with visits to producers and local markets
Multilingual Assistance and On-Board Hospitality
For guests who require language support throughout their stay, Viaggi di Mare provides mother-tongue interpreters and assistants in English, French, German, Russian, Spanish and Portuguese. Hostess services are available both for private events and for boat charters requiring an additional layer of on-board hospitality beyond the standard crew.
Personal and Specialist Services
The full range of on-demand personal services available through Viaggi di Mare includes:
- Baby-sitter — qualified childcare for families travelling with young children
- Private chef — on-board or at your accommodation, with menus built around local seasonal produce
- Massage service — on boat or on the beach, with a range of treatments including neuromuscular, sports, decontracting, classic relaxing and Vodder method lymphatic drainage
- Photographic and video services — professional documentation of your boat day, event or holiday experience
- Language school — Italian and foreign language courses in Forte dei Marmi, delivered directly on the beach, at your holiday home, or at the Forte dei Marmi location
Events, Celebrations and Corporate Services
Viaggi di Mare also supports private events and corporate clients with a dedicated range of services tailored to group needs:
- Wedding planning — coordination of ceremonies and receptions on the Ligurian and Tuscan coast, with access to venues, catering and logistics across both regions
- Catering services — on board or at private venues, for any group size
- Team building — sea-based and land-based programmes designed to strengthen collaboration within company groups, delivered in the Gulf of Poets and along the Versilia coast
