Full description

Visit one of Italy's most enchanting destinations, Cinque Terre, on a day trip by coach, train, and boat. Each of these unforgettable little cities will take your breath away with their gravity-defying dance above the azure waters. This day trip will give you an unforgettable and fun introduction to this coastal gem. Begin your tour of these UNESCO sites at daybreak with your arrival in La Spezia. Board a train to Riomaggiore, a quaint medieval town dating to the 13th century. Marvel at the winding streets of this village and its charming houses leaning one against the other. Next, head over to Manarola to enjoy panoramic views. Continue on to Monterosso, an ancient fishing village considered the "pearl of the Cinque Terre." Finally, take a boat across to Vernazza, whose natural port has kept it safe from invaders for centuries.

Wonderful day exploring the towns. Our guides were knowledgeable and informative. We were unable to do the boat transportation as there was inclement weather. Highly recommend.

Tabitha was a great guide! She communicated all of the plans clearly and kept track of everyone. You don’t get much time in each place so we want to go back one time and pick a spot to explore for the day, but this trip was a great way to experience all of cinque fast!
