Top Cinque Terre Art & Culture

Discover the Cinque Terre's breathtaking beauty with our self-guided audio tour app, allowing you to explore the five legendary villages of the Italian Riviera at your own pace. Begin in Riomaggiore where pastel houses tumble down cliffs to a tiny harbor where fishermen have launched their boats for centuries. Hike the ancient footpaths that connect the villages through terraced vineyards and Mediterranean scrubland, pausing at viewpoints where the turquoise sea sparkles beneath vertiginous cliffs. Wander through Manarola's waterfront, perhaps the most photographed scene in all of Italy, then climb to the hilltop cemetery whose setting rivals any sunset lookout. Discover Corniglia perched high on its promontory, the only village without direct sea access, where 382 brick steps reward climbers with the quietest of the five communities. Explore Vernazza's harbor, medieval tower, and the church of Santa Margherita d'Antiochia whose striped facade anchors the most dramatic village setting.
