What are people saying about Cinque Terre

Barbara_D, Apr 2026

Great Day Trip!

Jonathan, our guide, was great. He shared interesting information throughout the day about the Cinque Terre and Italy. The pace was very good and we felt well cared for throughout the day. We had lunch in Vernazza, which was a pretty town but also overflowing with tourists. We are not saying this a complaint about the tour, just a note to others that the Cinque Terre is indeed a popular destination.

Noel_B, Apr 2026

Beautiful Cinque Terra but strenuous walking

Wonderful day with our guide (David) Turi. He shared his knowledge and recommendations with us and constantly checked if we needed anything. Small group with one other couple made this experience very personal. Cinque Terra is beautiful and breathtaking. However a word of caution, take the ’moderate’ physical level seriously it’s all hills and not kind on tender knees, hips and backs. Be aware of uneven surfaces and lots of uneven stairs. That being said we highly recommend this tour.

Horse ride on the coast of Monterosso al Mare Cinque Terre

nbmtbsyg5n, Apr 2026

Incredible mountain-trial horse-riding

Denise and Helene were gracious and educational hosts. Denise even picked us up from Monterosso in her car. The horses were beautiful and very well trained; there were even 2 puppies at their ranch. They had a place to store any belongings as well so you wouldn’t have to carry them while on the horses. The trail was very comfortable and safe; and the views were one-of-a-kind. Amazing experience, a must-do if you are in the area. Thank you Denise and Helene.

Horrendous weather changed plans!

The day prior to the experience, the tour operator reached out to me via WhatsApp and messaging to let us know that they had to unfortunately cancel the tour due to extremely high winds and severe thunderstorms forecast for the following day. We truly appreciated the effort they made to contact me and the prompt refund that I received. Thank you!

Beautiful tour with amazing pesto!

The private boat tour was a highlight of our stay in Manarola. They were extremely accommodating to meet us in Manarola during the train strike. Our guide was so personable and friendly. He gave us so much great information and history about each town. The pesto was some of the best we’ve ever had. Highly recommend!!

Cinque Terre Sunset Cruise with Aperitif from Monterosso

Lizbeth_S, Oct 2025

Lovely Experience

The cruise and the company on board made this a delightful evening. Our guides Jessica and Israel were kind and helpful. We had perfect weather and a stunning sunset. The snacks were simple but the wine was plentiful if we wanted it. The only downside is that Viator needed to give us more details about what boat/company we were looking for at the dock. There were many and we had to ask a lot of questions. In the end, however, everything worked out.

Really great, relaxing...

Really great, relaxing ride. We were running late and texted the group via Viator. It turned out the boat was also a bit behind (only 10 minutes), but the fact they were responsive was reassuring. Matteo is great tour guide, captain and just a nice welcoming human. He has several facts for every town and really tries to engage each individual (if they're open to it). The boat is also quite spacious and well kept. Don't forget to bring a swimsuit + towel since they take you to a nice cove with super clear water (I forgot or didn't read), especially nice on a hot day as the tour gets started. They bring plenty of beverages and platters of different breads, focaccias which were delicious. After you hit each town, the sunset ride back to Monterosso is quite romantic. Our group had great camaraderie and it's totally family friendly (there was a 2 year old on board with us). There are a lot of boat tours you can sign up for, I would come back to this one.

Our Time in Cinque-Terre

We had great weather conditions which allowed us to hit all planned swimming and snorkeling stops. Andrea was great! Very knowledgeable, he gave us great insight about the area and it's history. He served us a local pesto and local bread that were to die for! I highly recommend this tour.
