Car Rental with Driver Milan: Discovering Genoa Aquarium

Luxury cars for carefree travel

At Vip Limousine, car rental with driver Milan, we not only take care of airport transfers or transfers to Milan's main train station, but we are the perfect partner to entrust with the management of an excursion to discover the beauties of Italy.

We admit without too much shame that in Italy we are truly spoilt for choice: cities of art, breathtaking natural landscapes, food and wine routes that are the envy of the world and museums that tell stories that deserve to be heard and passed on.

Not everyone likes to drive, however, and if in some cases one tries to resort to public transport such as trains and planes, in other cases the car is certainly more convenient: you are not bound to a departure time nor to a maximum number of suitcases that you can take on your trip.

In Italy, however, there is also the problem of parking. In many cities it is not only difficult to find parking space for your car, but more often than not you are also forced to leave your vehicle far away from the centre or the place you intend to visit, thus being obliged to use public transport.

By opting for a car rental with driver Milan as we do at Vip Limousine, you will not have to face any of these problems, but only enjoy the journey and the programme you have drawn up.

A city that perfectly sums up the problems just mentioned is Genoa, a popular port city that is especially famous for its beautiful aquarium.

Visit Italy's largest aquarium

Not everyone has the chance to dive to the bottom of the ocean and see for themselves how beautiful the underwater world is, but everyone can go and visit the famous Aquarium of Genoa, observing ocean life up close and enjoying its astonishing beauty.

At VIP Limousine Milan we recommend visiting this beautiful aquarium to everyone, whether with family, friends, or on an organised trip. That is why in our fleet we have not only sporty and elegant cars, but also minibuses and coaches that can transport even a large group. Just because the size of the cars is significantly larger does not mean that they are less comfortable inside, like school buses. All our coaches are comfortable, stylish and equipped with all the amenities that will make the journey to the Aquarium's gates as comfortable as possible.

But back to the Aquarium of Genoa. It is the largest aquarium in Italy and the second largest in Europe, so it is no surprise that tourists from all over Europe arrive every year to visit this beauty.

The sea creatures are housed in 70 enormous tanks with a total capacity of over 6 million tonnes of water taken directly from the sea and appropriately filtered. The aquarium was built in 1992 for the Genoa Expo celebrating the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America. In 1998 the aquarium was expanded to provide a better experience for the many visitors. Over the years, many improvements have been made to the Genoa Aquarium, necessary to keep up with the times and to attract an ever-growing public: today the "tactile tanks", special tanks in which you can dip your hand to touch the fish, are very popular.

Here live in peace the most exotic inhabitants of the seas and oceans, carefully cared for by the aquarium staff: sea dragons, moray eels, parrot fish, stingrays, unusual jellyfish and much more. The tank that receives the largest number of visitors is the one housing the cetaceans: these majestic animals swim in front of the public like huge submarines and cause great excitement every time. Equally exciting are the penguin and seal tanks.

Discovering La Superba

Genoa, however, is not just an aquarium, it is a land where culture and cuisine meet to form something unique. You only have to leave the aquarium to realise the many places where you can savour the famous Ligurian focaccia or delicious fish dishes, perhaps accompanied by pasta al pesto, the famous Ligurian dressing made with basil.

In this city with an ancient past, many civilisations met and between the 12th and 15th centuries it played a major role in trade throughout Europe. In the years of the economic boom, Genoa was part of the famous industrial triangle together with two other major cities such as Milan and Turin, thus representing a landmark in the Italian economy and beyond.

Among the architectural beauties we recommend you visit are the monumental cemetery, the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, the Basilica of Santissima Annunziata del Vastato and the Lanterna, the eternal symbol of the city and one of the oldest lighthouses in the world.

We would like to make special mention of the port. For centuries, the bustling Genoese harbour was used as a port of call by ships laden with spices and other goods from distant lands. Over time, the harbour fell into disrepair, but local enthusiasts found a use for it. Based on a design by the famous architect Renzo Piano, the old harbour was reconstructed into an entertainment complex for the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America: a museum, a tropical garden, a swimming pool and a panoramic lift were added.
