This tour was born from our love for the territory and the desire to make known the beauty of the Cinque Terre landscapes. Many choose to visit the villages from the water or on foot, but even a 360-degree view from above offers an unusual, exciting and difficult to reach perspective alone. Together we will ride in the National Park, guided by the words of the local Guide, along terraces, olive groves, sanctuaries and you can admire the Cinque Terre coast, from Mesco to Punta Manero, with its characteristic villages from above. The very small number of participants allowed allows the development of a more engaging experience and attentive to the needs and curiosity of each. In addition, safety will never fail, thanks to the First Aid Kit available to the Guide for any assistance on the vehicle and the maintenance column present at the farm. Bikes are not suitable for people under 165 cm in height

Exclusive E-Bike Tour to Cinque Terre from Monterosso

After pick-up from your ship at Livorno, Italy’s Cinque Terre is a bit like a beauty pageant, with one village after another competing to have the most charming backstreets, the cutest pastel buildings and the most Instagrammable views. Just when you think you’ve found the most beautiful spot, another one comes along and blows you away again. But like real-life beauty queens, each of the five villages has its own different charms. Some are showy and others are a bit more subtle – like Corniglia. It might not have Monterosso’s beach or Riomaggiore’s colourful harbour, but it has its own understated beauty – which is why I chose it as the base for your trip to the Cinque Terre. *Explore the Towns of Manarola, Vernazza and Corniglia *Enjoy lunch in a beautiful borgo like Vernazza (not included) *Enjoy the wonderful atmosfere and have a wine tasting in Corniglia

What are people saying about Cinque Terre

Tiffany_C, Aug 2026

The perfect pesto experience — a happy accident!

We actually ended up booking this pesto class at the last minute after the vineyard pesto class we had originally planned was unexpectedly cancelled, and I’m so glad we did because this turned out to be one of our favorite experiences! The class was such a nice pace — relaxed, fun, and informative without ever feeling rushed. Our instructor was wonderful and, being local to the region where pesto originated, made the experience feel especially authentic. The pesto we made was genuinely some of the best we had during our entire trip, and getting to sit down afterward and enjoy it right there with some lovely wine pairings made it even better. As an added bonus, our instructor’s name was Luca, which we thought was so fun considering we were in the Ligurian towns that inspired the setting of Luca. It was such a cute little coincidence that made the experience even more memorable. Our train was delayed, so we arrived a little later than planned, but our instructor was incredibly understanding and welcoming, and it didn’t negatively impact our experience at all. The location is also extremely easy to get to from the train station, which makes this a great activity if you’re visiting the area by train. What started as a last-minute backup plan ended up being an amazing experience that we would absolutely recommend. Great pesto, great wine, a wonderful instructor, and such a fun way to experience a piece of Ligurian culture!

A good way to get to see the area in one day. Our driver provided facts about the area during the drive and was available throughout the day for questions or recommendations. It’s nice having someone to take care of the train and ferry tickets so you can enjoy exploring the villages. Pick and drop was nice and smooth. Air conditioned van was nice given the heat.

The tour itself was a...

The tour itself was a great way to see all 5 cities from the water, a perspective you can't get from visiting each city on foot! After initially leaving the dock, we had to return to pick up some last minute passengers. I would have rather been delayed than to leave the dock and then have to return. There's also a 10 Euro gas fee (?) per person that has to be paid upfront in cash, this was in the reminder email for the tour but I would have preferred to just have that cost added to the tour price. I did this tour at the end of my trip and was running low on Euros. They do give you unlimited drinks/water and a sandwich and cookie, which hit the spot after stopping to swim.

A great intro to Cinque Terre!

This day trip is a great way to see this area in a short amount of time. Had lunch at a wonderful restaurant, took in the magnificent scenery. Wished we could stay longer. This trip gives you a great taste of what the cinque terre area is like. Highly recommend it!

Cinque Terre Sunset Boat Tour Experience

Delightful sunset boat cruise

We really enjoyed our sunset boat tour. The driver and his assistant did a great job telling us about the coastline and about Cinque Terre and the different towns. They provided delicious wine and snacks. We stopped at a pretty place for swimming for those who wanted. It was just a really nice evening and I would highly recommend it.

Cinque Terre Sunset Cruise with Aperitif from Monterosso

The highlight of our trip to Cinque Terre!

Our sunset cruise was, without question, one of the most memorable experiences of our entire Italy trip. With only our family of five and one other family on board, the experience was intimate, relaxed, and never felt crowded. Our guide, Eleonora, shared the history, legends, and unique character of each of the five villages of Cinque Terre, along with recommendations for what to see and do in each one. She also went above and beyond by taking countless family photos for us, allowing us to simply enjoy the moment. Our captain, Gianni (I hope I'm spelling his name correctly!), was incredibly skilled and made us feel completely safe on the water. We own a boat at home, so my husband was thrilled when Gianni invited him to take the helm for a few minutes and shared some of the navigation rules unique to the Ligurian coast. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected highlight. Both Eleonora and Gianni spoke excellent English, were warm, welcoming, and genuinely seemed to enjoy sharing their beautiful coastline with us. The cruise included Prosecco, white wine, limoncello, water, soda, chips, delicious pesto focaccia, and cookies. We stopped twice for swimming, and they provided pool noodles and snorkeling goggles. My husband hadn't even packed a swimsuit, but after seeing how inviting the water was, Gianni happily loaned him a pair of swim trunks so he could join us. That small gesture perfectly captures how accommodating and generous they were throughout the experience. From the breathtaking scenery and swimming in the Ligurian Sea to the incredible hospitality, this was a 10/10 experience. If you're visiting Cinque Terre, don't hesitate—book this cruise. It was worth every euro and will be one of our favorite memories for years to come.

Can’t imagine a better way to see cinque terre

Wonderful!! Perfect amount of time to see the villages from the water and take a swim with snorkels. The guides were helpful and informative and the snacks and drinks were a perfect complement to the afternoon. The only negative was that it was difficult to find the correct boat in the port- luckily we saw the sea breeze tshirts on the skipper or otherwise we would have not been able to locate the boat (no sea breeze sign)

Jacob was the best tour guide!

The second stop has the best beaches if you’re going to swim. You only have an hour though. It was a beautiful experience but very crowded. The tour was worth the money if you have a good tour guide who can explain the sites on the 2 1/2 hour drive to the first town.

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!

Classic Cinque Terre

Sonja_M, May 2026

Highly recommend

What an amazing day. Veronica was great, informative, and so helpful. This was so much better than trying to see everything on our own. She helped us navigate the trains and the ferry. We were a small group of 12 to 15 people. She kept us all together and directed us where we needed to be. Myself and one of the members of our party have food allergies. She pointed us in the right direction for a nice lunch where they accommodated our issues.

Cinque Terra private boat tour with Simone

Stunning landscapes viewed from the Sea, narrated by an excellent, informative and entertaining captain. Simone was warm and polite from the start, he provided lots of information and helped make a very memorable experience. He brought along delicious focaccia bread and fresh, and outstanding homemade pesto made by his mother - it was fabulous. We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the sea with Simone and would certainly recommend this tour. Grazie mille, Simone.

Tommy was a great tour...

Tommy was a great tour guide, boat captain, and DJ! We had a great time touring the 5 towns, learning history, swimming with fishes, and drinking champagne. I even got seasick a bit and Tommy was very helpful and gave me tips to make the trip more enjoyable. Would highly recommend!
