Top Cinque Terre Private Sightseeing Tours

My partner and I were exploring Italy on our honeymoon and decided to take a day trip to Cinque Terre to view the picturesque seaside community. The agency expertly handled booking our train tickets from Milan to Monterosso (and back), and Laura, our guide, was truly fantastic. She was fluent in English, Italian, Spanish, and French (very easy to understand), and most importantly, she knew every detail of the towns we were visiting, from which stairways and trails to take, to the best shops for local food and art, to the best places for photographs. She was able to speak of the history and culture of the towns expertly, and to give us an appreciation for how the land has influenced agriculture, architecture, infrastructure, and tourism over the centuries. We were able to visit 4 of the 5 towns (via the train and the ferry), all except Corniglia (which would have required quite a climb and extra time). Laura truly helped us to maximize the value of our limited time in Cinque Terre (the weather was also perfect) and left us wanting to come back to experience more. Three cheers for our wonderful guide--this experience was worth the cost.

The boat was very nice and older which I loved. Unique would be the correct word. Guide Thomas was fantastic and told is a lot about the history of area. He played great music and poured lots of prosecco. Amore Pictures galore. Loved the tour. Highly recommend

This was a great 3 hour boat tour of Cinque Terre. Our captain, Simone, was awesome as he described history of each of the 5 villages while catering to our every need. Simone had the boat stocked with water, beer, and wine and even some focaccia and pesto made by his mom! The boat was perfect for our group of 4 and we had a fantastic trip.
