Full description

Meet your private guide at the port of La Spezia and make your way to the train station for a short ride to Riomaggiore. Discover this tiny ancient village, where you can take amazing photos of the colorful homes facing the sea.

Stop in Vernazza and admire the 14th-century church and the quaint port, then enjoy free time to purchase lunch. Continue to the charming town of Monterosso and feel free to take a refreshing swim at the picturesque beach.

Follow your guide to the most scenic spots in Cinque Terre and listen to insightful commentary as you explore at your own pace. Embark on a boat ride with your guide and take in the dramatic views of the coast from the water.

If the cruise itinerary goes according to plan, seize the chance to discover the town of Manarola as well. Finally, take the train back to La Spezia station and from there to the port.

Our guide Jovanna was excellent! She knew so much history of the area and was happy and proud to share it with us. She also made sure we were taken care of, whether it was a cold drink, a WC stop, or a great restaurant for lunch.
