We had an amazing day hiking in the Cinque Terre with a very kind and knowledgeable guide! The views from the trail were amazing and we enjoyed a couple of stops along the way for treats and lunch. Keep in mind this is a lot of walking and parts of the trail are very steep - the views are worth it but you should be in good physical condition and wearing good shoes! We weren’t able to get to all of the villages because we were with a larger group but the slower pace worked out for our family which included kids 11 and 18. Our guide kept everything fun and was simply amazing!

We had the most amazing time! Views were incredible and hike was hard but manageable. We were looking for a legit hike and this was great. Our group was not able to take the usual bus up to the top because the bus driver was not operating on schedule, however we were very excited to do the first part of the hike on foot. Tour guide was great and we were able to avoid crowds. Would recommend bringing water and snacks as well as a hat and sunglasses. Definitely would not recommend for small children or people who have fear of heights as some of the path has no railing and is narrow.

*The previous reviews of this tour on this page were from the old version of this tour. It has been revised and is much easier to hike.* This tour was the highlight of our entire cruise! We had such a wonderful time, we did not want the day to end. Once we disembarked our cruise ship, right at the terminal we found our tour guide, Sabrina, waiting for us. From there onwards it was complete smooth sailing as Sabrina handled everything - all we had to do was walk and take in the sights. The tour includes a small glimpse of La Spezia, very comfortable (and fancy) train rides, a beautiful and a somewhat easy hike/walk through vineyards and forest and three of the Cique Terre with relaxing time to stroll and explore. Sabrina, our guide, was most lovely and knowledgeable about the area and any questions we had. She made the whole experience so wonderful and enjoyable. She even took into account the group’s fitness level as a whole and adapted the routes for everyone’s enjoyment. 10/10!
