Discover the best of Cinque Terre

The seaside villages of Cinque Terre, recognized as UNESCO World Heritage sites, have remained hidden amidst steep mountains and the azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea for centuries. The journey begins on a comfortable bus, led by an expert guide. The first stop is the enchanting village of Riomaggiore (or Manarola). Here, colorful houses, churches, and picturesque shops cling to the cliffs overlooking the sea. Moving on to Vernazza, considered one of the most enchanting villages of Cinque Terre, your guide will lead you on an exploratory stroll through narrow alleys and charming squares to the harbor. From this unique perspective, marvel at the spectacular coastline unfolding before your eyes.

The next stop is Monterosso, renowned for its lovely beach and hills gently descending towards rocky coves. Here, a typical restaurant awaits you for a delightful lunch featuring local products (if you choose this option). You'll also have ample free time for a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean or to explore the fascinating workshops of local artisans. The unforgettable adventure in the Cinque Terre comes to an end in this lively and picturesque village. Then a comfortable bus awaits us to take us back to Florence, concluding a perfect day.
