Anniversary sunset boat tour in cinque terre

We had an amazing time on the sunset boat tour through Cinque Terre! We cruised past all of the beautiful villages as the sun was setting, making for an absolutely gorgeous ride. Our captain and tour guide were both knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience even better. We enjoyed some beer and wine, took in the incredible views, and had a great time with the group. Highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting Cinque Terre!

Rachel_S, Oct 2026

Breathtaking views, wine, snacks, and friendly hosts

Wonderful tour! Matteo and William are excellent hosts. Plenty of tasty snacks (ours were even vegetarian) and free flowing wine and Prosecco. Beautiful views with a chance to swim in warm weather. Don't be alarmed if the boat arrives a few mins after the meet time, they're coming from Levanto. Sea Breeze has multiple boats as well. Thanks for a really memorable experience, we really enjoyed it!!

Cinque Terre and Pisa Tower Small-Group Day Trip from Florence

Houssam_O, Sep 2026

An unforgettable day in Cinque Terre, thanks to Deanna!

Our tour of Cinque Terre was wonderful from start to finish. The ride was comfortable and the scenery was simply breathtaking, but what truly made our trip special was our guide, Deanna. Deanna was incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating. She shared so much history and insight about the areas we drove through and the villages we visited. What stood out most was that her knowledge went beyond the textbook. She shared stories and details she'd picked up from locals over the years, which gave us a real feel for the region and its people. Honestly, the trip would have been nice on its own, but Deanna turned it into a truly great experience. If you have the chance to book a tour with her, don't hesitate. Highly recommended!

From Florence: Cinque Terre & Pisa Day Trip

beth_l, Sep 2026

Cinque Terre Delight

Our guide Lizabetta was amazing! Despite the group being 50ish people, she had us feeling connected and communicated in a manner that many other tour guides could benefit from observing. We were well informed throughout the entire day regarding toilettes, expected arrival, departure, location to meet etc. The bus was comfortable, air conditioned, and safe. The day is a long timeline. Suggest to bring water and essentials for comfort. You can leave items on the bus which would have been nice to know ahead of time. The only improvement to offer is that pulling into Pisa late in the day, did not allow us to see the basilica because it is a timed ticket. Viator/City Wonders should consider coordinating tickets (if permitted). The Pisa museums require entrance fee other than the basilica, so not being able to access the site was disappointing. Great experience and change of pace from city art and exploring to see the coastline and take in different scenery.

Cinque Terre Hybrid Boat Tour from Monterosso

Kerri_D, Sep 2026

Premium Experience

This has been my favorite tour in Italy so far. The boat is beautiful and very comfortable. The captain was great and the guide/hostess was absolutely lovely. We were never empty handed…always a beverage and/or food provided. We had two opportunities to swim, and of course the best views of the five villages. Lots of opportunities for stunning pictures. It was a perfect day and I think it is well worth the price for a premium experience.

Private Tour: Cinque Terre from La Spezia

Sean_H, Sep 2026

Superb Visit to Cinque Terre with awesome tour guide!

Superb tour of this lovely slice of Italy visiting Manarola, Riomaggiore, and Monterosso by boat having been collected at La Spezia. Very well organized and orchestrated tour using public transportation to inclue the train from La Spezia to then be shown and described the unique characteristics of each town. Unhurried and able to enjoy at a well timed pace. Inclement weather near the end and tour guide remained engaged, helpful and responsive to ensure we made it back to La Spezia! A must do and great experience.

Classic Cinque Terre

Cheryl_T, Aug 2026

Cinque Terre

Visiting Cinque Terre was truly a wonderful experience. Besides all the lovely towns we got to visit we had the nicest and caring tour guide with Veronica. It became a private tour for the 4 of us since the other people canceled. She gave us options on what our preferences were on train versus ferry or both? My husband had some issues in walking a lot and it was hot. She always made sure we could find comfortable places in the shade to rest up. Veronica was also very knowledgeable on all the places we visited. I highly recommend Viator as a tour company and especially recommend Veronica to add to thexperience.

The perfect low stress getaway

We had a fantastic time, cruising with Mateo and Frederica. The communication was excellent, which really helped calm our nerves. The tour was great. We enjoyed the beverages, the nice snack they provided and a good commentary about the area. Taking two swims in the sea on a really hot day was the icing on the cake. I would highly highly highly recommend this excursion.

Best Way to Spend the Evening in 5terre!

Incredible views you can only see from the water. It was a long tour, but no surprises and it was worth the money. The boat wasn’t overcrowded, there was a nice selection of beverages, and pro tip: when you get the option to go swimming in the gorgeous turquoise water… say yes!
