What to expect
La Spezia
First Stop. You will take a scenic route that offers unique and unrivalled sights in the famous 'Gulf of Poets
Monterosso al Mare
First Stop. Monterosso is the biggest (about 1500 inhabitants) and the oldest of the Cinque Terre’s villages. It is divided into 2 parts: the old and the new village. The biggest beach of the entire coast is situated here : because of this, it is the most visited town, and then in evenings there are much more entertainment activities here than in the other villages.
Vernazza
Second Stop. Vernazza is the third leg of our fantastic Ligurian tour; considered by many the most charming of the Cinque Terre, its economic and social level reached in the Middle Ages is still witnessed in this quaint town by the urban layout and the presence of architectural elements of great value as lodges, churches, tower houses and porches. In Vernazza we want to enjoy a great typical Italian-based cuisine lunch, including wine of course and, after our meal, following a brief visit to the village,
Manarola
Third stop. Manarola is a real gem, rich in typical tower houses Genoese style.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
