Discover the villages of the Cinque Terre in one day, admiring and exploring these picturesque small towns in northern Italy. The Cinque Terre is a beautiful stretch of rugged coast and the only unspoiled part left of the lovely Italian Riviera. It takes its name from the five picturesque fishing villages of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso.
The villages have been inaccessible from the land for centuries, isolated by steep mountains and valleys on one side and by the sea on the other. Thanks to its isolation and unspoiled charm, the Cinque Terre National Park has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Led by a knowledgeable guide, you will discover this spectacular coastline.
You'll first visit Manarola, and continue with a lovely boat trip (weather permitting) to Monterosso, which is renowned for its beautiful beach and small craftsmen's shops. Then, after a short train ride, you will reach Vernazza, where you will have some free time to sit at one of the cheerful bars and cafés.
By train, you'll finally arrive in Riomaggiore where you will have some free time for a refreshing swim in the Mediterranean Sea or shopping. Here a delicious lunch will be served at a typical restaurant with a perfect view of the sea and the hills sloping down to the rocky coves. From Riomaggiore, you will travel back by train to La Spezia before returning to Florence by coach.
