Itinerary

– Capoliveri
Capoliveri is a captivating town where medieval charm meets modern vibrancy. Perched on a hill, this magnificent town boasts some of the island’s most beautiful beaches at its base. Stroll through its narrow, enchanting streets where old cellars and stables have been transformed into chic bistros, piano bars, and artisanal boutiques—all while preserving the original architecture. The small main square, filled with cafés and restaurants, features a scenic overlook with stunning views of Montecristo and Pianosa.

– Porto Azzurro
Considered the “Portofino of Elba,” Porto Azzurro is widely regarded as the island’s most cherished town. In 1600, the town fell under Spanish dominion, and by 1603, King Philip III had erected a formidable fortress that still dominates the skyline. Immerse yourself in this coastal gem where history and modern vibrancy blend seamlessly. Wander through quaint alleys adorned with historic architecture, explore bustling waterfronts filled with artisan shops and delightful eateries, and savor culinary treasures amid breathtaking views. As part of our visit, we’ll also explore a unique shop offering a wide variety of minerals, gems, and jewelry, along with an extensive selection of books and magazines on geology and mineralogy. Every corner exudes timeless Mediterranean charm, inviting you to create unforgettable memories.

– Portoferraio
Portoferraio, the vibrant capital of Elba, is where economic, commercial, and political life come alive. Its charming old harbor, gracefully shaped like a horseshoe and dotted with sleek yachts, invites leisurely strolls along a lively promenade filled with boutique shops, cafés, and delightful gelaterias. Beyond its modern pulse, history beckons within the ancient city walls—featuring treasures such as Napoleon’s Theatre, Fort Falcone with its breathtaking views, the Star Fortress with its iconic lighthouse, the archaeological museum, the Foresi Art Gallery, and the historic Church of Misericordia. Founded by Cosimo I de’ Medici in 1548, Portoferraio remains the quintessential fortified Mediterranean town.
