Full description
Cinque Terre (5 Villages) is one of Italy's most enchanting destinations. Each of these unforgettable little cities will take your breath away with their gravity-defying dance above the azure waters. Our day trip to these villages suspended on craggy cliffs will give you an unforgettable and fun introduction to the coastal gem!
We begin our tour of these UNESCO sites at daybreak with arrival in La Spezia. We then board a train to Riomaggiore, a quaint medieval town dating to the 13th century. The small winding streets of this village known for its wine greet you as we begin our tour, charming houses leaning one against the other as we continue our trek through the cobblestone streets.
Next, we'll head over to Manarola, walking the famous "Via dell'Amore" (Path of Love), which you will soon discover is one of the most beautiful routes in all of Italy! Here you are, high above the sea, with lovely mountains and wilderness all around you!
We continue on to Monterosso, an ancient fishing village considered the "pearl of the Cinque Terre." Here, we can relax on its lovely beaches and jump into the refreshing crystal sea.
Finally, we'll take a boat across to Vernazza, whose natural port has kept it safe from invaders for centuries. The scenery and lifestyle of these five little villages will stand out in your memory, and our tour shows you the best they have to offer!
