Bodyguard in Portofino
A tiny harbour, watched with care.
Portofino is the jewel of the Italian Riviera — a tiny, exclusive harbour where royalty, families and the yachting set gather each summer, and where a small footprint and great discretion matter more than anywhere.
Algoz coordinates discreet close protection, villa and yacht security and secure transfers in Portofino and along the Ligurian coast through vetted, Italy-authorised operators.

EnquireWhy protection in Italy is authorised by the Prefettura.
In Italy, private security is regulated under the consolidated public-security law (TULPS), with companies and sworn guards authorised by the Prefettura. Armed protection is tightly controlled, so most close protection is delivered unarmed, built on planning, presence and secure transport.
Algoz coordinates protection in Portofino exclusively through this licensed framework, with every operative vetted, NDA-bound and discreet. See how our close protection works, add concierge and secure transport, or extend across Porto Cervo and Milan.
What protection in Portofino costs.
As a guide, professional close protection in Italy is, in 2026, typically EUR 600–900 per day for a single principal on twelve-hour cover, with the final rate confirmed on enquiry and no obligation. Specialist profiles, armed or armoured requirements, short-notice mobilisation and peak season carry a premium.
