Which Biosphere combo to book
The Biosphere is the glass sphere Renzo Piano designed for the old port, with a small tropical forest inside. It's warm and humid inside, so leave your jacket in the bag. It's also a short visit, which is why most people add it to a bigger sight rather than making a trip just for it.
Most visitors. Aquarium of Genoa + Biosphere is the obvious choice. The two are neighbours on the Porto Antico waterfront, so you walk straight from one to the other. Biosphere + Aquarium of Genoa: Entry Ticket + Lunch or Breakfast is the same pair with a meal at the Aquarium included.
Harbour views. Biosphere + Bigo Panoramic Lift keeps you on the old port: the glass sphere of tropical plants, then the panoramic lift for a look over the city. Both are short visits, so this works for an afternoon.
Families. Biosphere + The City of Children and Youth adds the hands-on children's museum at Porto Antico and has strong reviews. The Genoa Family Pass goes further, with the Aquarium (with a meal), the Biosphere, the City of Children and Youth and the hop-on hop-off bus.

Is a combo cheaper than separate tickets?
The two-part Biosphere bundles are a little cheaper than their parts. The Family Pass is priced as one product, so compare it with what you'd pay for the parts you'll use.
How the tickets work
You book once and get a separate ticket for each part on your phone. The Biosphere part is a fast-track ticket. Pick a date for each attraction, and a time slot where asked, especially for the Aquarium. Cancellation rules can differ per part, so read the conditions on the booking page.
