Traveller Advice
The Portofino Walk, Castello Brown
Dramatic tree-lined cliffs, ocean views, warm weather and delicious food sum up Portofino.
Missing the ‘Portofino walk’ whilst there, is nearly as blasphemous as visiting London, and giving the London Eye or Buckingham Palace a miss!
You could breeze through the trail of the Portofino walk, or enjoy and soak in the beauty of this Italian retreat at leisure. The quay leads you to splendour that will leave you gawking spell bound.
I have to admit the next stop on the ‘Portofino walk’ was truly breathtaking. The pulchritude of what was once an Italian fortress, Castello Brown, can be enjoyed for a nominal fee, which I can assure you, is worth every dime.
