TUTTO BELLISSIMO

A Taste of Italian Language & Culture

A brief immersion in the Italian language and culture in its colors, flavors and smells, in the company of passionate experts and graduates. A deep and rich experience, capable of capturing even the less touristy aspects of the beautiful village of Camogli you have chosen for your vacation.
TUTTO BELLISSIMO - A Taste of Italian Language & Culture is a unique and exclusive opportunity to experience Camogli in an original way, to experience Italian society not only as mere tourists and observers, because language is above all a tool for communicating, understanding and expressing oneself in daily life.
The proposals take place partly in a dedicated space inside the Hotel Cenobio dei Dogi, and partly outside in and around Camogli. Groups consist of two up to a maximum of eight people for an unforgettable experience of Italian language and culture with excursions, walks, wine tastings and local cooking classes.
We hope to welcome you to Camogli soon and give you the opportunity to discover (or rediscover) our wonderful language!

OUR COURSES

BELL'ITALIA
A short dive into the Italian language to learn the most useful phrases for a tourist and immediately test yourself in typical situations of traveling in Italy (at the bar, restaurant, in a store, at the station, for example). And the results will speak for themselves!

ITALIAN? YES, THANK YOU!
To learn how to order in a bar, restaurant, ask for information, or shop for groceries, that is, how to "survive" with the Italian language by interacting with Camogli residents in basic everyday situations. Designed for those who want to spend a few hours chatting in Italian with a language expert over a cappuccino and a focaccia, like a real camoglino, but also for those who, starting from an elementary knowledge, want to "practice" with the spoken language and gain more confidence.

ITALIAN BETWEEN FESTIVALS AND TRADITIONS
We know it well, a language is not just about grammar, far from it! Knowing culture is essential to understanding a language. And culture is not only that of literature and art. Culture is also knowing local traditions. On this journey of discovery you will be accompanied by our Italian language experts who, after a brief introduction, will take you on a pleasant walk along the main streets of Camogli, with a visit to the Gio Bono Ferrari Maritime Museum.

ITALIAN BETWEEN A BOOK AND A COFFEE
To share the pleasure of reading a book by a well-known Italian author and the thoughts and emotions it stirs in us with a language expert and other reading lovers over coffee or a hot cappuccino in the heart of Camogli, a romantic seaside village with pastel-colored houses overlooking the beach.A way to learn about and deepen language through the pages of contemporary literature, to understand the historical moment in which the novel is set, experiencing joys and sorrows of the main characters. And to improve comprehension, expression and pronunciation skills.
