Crossing into Italy on this tour takes you to the Riviera dei Fiori, the "Flower Riviera" — the western stretch of the Italian Riviera di Ponente running from Ventimiglia to Cervo. Sanremo is its best-known town, founded in Roman times and still called the Città dei Fiori, the "City of Flowers," for an export flower trade that has shaped the local economy for well over a century, alongside its modern fame as host of Italy's long-running Sanremo Music Festival.
Dolceacqua is the smaller, quieter stop, but it has a real claim to art history: Claude Monet spent time here in the summer of 1883 and again in early 1884, basing himself nearby in Bordighera, and painted several views of the village's medieval bridge over the Nervia River. He called the bridge — a 33-meter span rebuilt after an earlier one collapsed in the 15th century — "a jewel of lightness." One of those 1884 paintings now hangs at the Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts.
Above the bridge stand the ruins of Doria Castle, built in the 11th century and held by Genoa's powerful Doria family from 1270 for roughly 300 years. The castle was damaged by attack in the 15th century, further damaged during Austrian occupation in the 16th, and badly hit again by a major Liguria earthquake in 1887 — it's now restored and owned by the town itself. Since this tour genuinely crosses an international border, bringing a passport or ID is a real requirement, not a formality.
