WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Borgo Storico di Manarola
Explore Manarola by foot or relax in a cafe or bar. From Manarola enjoy a shared boat ride to Monterosso. The harbor area is filled with colorful rowing boats and becomes the main sunbathing and swimming spot of the village from morning until dusk. In fact, this is the perfect place to spend a lazy day sunbathing and watching people jumping off the cliffs. Although there is no real beach here, it has some of the best deep-water swimming around. Along the main road the boats are pulled onto dry land every time the sea is rough. The village is all ups and downs, with steep narrow alleys carrugi, leading to the sea.
2. Vernazza
Nestled along the rugged Ligurian coast, Vernazza is a picturesque Cinque Terre village known for its vibrant houses, breathtaking beauty, and UNESCO World Heritage status. With car-free winding streets, a lively harbor, and charming shops, Vernazza offers a delightful experience for visitors. At its heart lies the lively Piazza Marconi and the stunning 14th-century Church of Santa Margherita d'Antiochia. The village boasts scenic hiking trails, such as the famous Sentiero Azzurro, connecting it to neighboring Monterosso al Mare. Vernazza's gastronomic allure lies in its exquisite Ligurian cuisine and locally-produced Cinque Terre white wine.
3. Monterosso
Monterosso is the largest of the five coastal villages known as the Cinque Terre. The village is located on hills cultivated with lemons, vines and olives. Its amazing beaches, its beautiful reefs and the sea’s crystal clear waters make this small village one of the most popular of the Italian Riviera.Monterosso is divided in two parts marked by the medieval tower of Aurora. The old town of Monterosso is dominated by the ruins of the castle and characterized by typical narrow medieval streets, carruggi, with multi-coloured terraced houses, shops and restaurants.

A little chaotic - our driver was late due to personal sickness for which he over-shared. Then lot of traffic. The whole day felt rushed. Not relaxing. I would not take this trip again

Awesome way to get to see some of Italy’s coast! Our tour guide, Jonathan, was very knowledgeable and friendly. We stopped at two very beautiful towns of Cinque Terre - one that he showed us and one that we explored ourselves and had lunch. We also did the stop in Pisa to see the leaning tower. We would definitely recommend this for anyone looking to do a day trip from Florence! Worth the few hours spent driving.

A small group tour option was definitely worth it. A personal experience, direct contact with host, no waiting for others who don’t arrive on time or follow instructions.

A hot but magnificent day in one of the most interesting places I have ever been at. I just regret not taking a bathing suit. Other than that I won’t change a thing.

Our favorite part of the tour was taking the ferry to see all five villages. We got some amazing photos! Our driver, Jonathon, was very organized and well informed.

Giacomo was an amazing escort. He showed us the best of Cinque Terre while making us feel special and appreciated. He made reservations for us, secured us on the train between towns and recommended all the best locations in Cinque Terre. I highly recommend.

Yarris was incredibly knowledgeable on our tour. He was also a Botany expert which was so interesting especially to my 70 year old mother. He described and pointed out every plant and tree we passed! such a fun extra! He also seamlessly guided us through the train system and made sure we understood where to meet him in each town. We couldn't have asked for a better guide.
