What are people saying about Cinque Terre

Cinque Terre Hybrid Boat Tour from Monterosso

Cassandra_R, Aug 2026

Amazing!

Awesome experience! Gianni and Elanora were amazing! We got to see all five towns, which is definitely the best way to see Cinque Terre. They kept us well hydrated and fed the whole time. They were so easy to talk to and a lot of fun. We even got to swim in a few places. Hands down our best experience in Cinque Terre.

From Florence: Cinque Terre & Pisa Day Trip

George_G, Aug 2026

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 and Pisa Tower Tour from Florence Semi Private

Beenish_A, Aug 2026

Fun Day trip!

Super fun day trip! We took the train and the ferry between the towns and it totally saved us from the brutal heat! Our driver David was also really sweet and knowledgeable. He even recommended a great resturant for lunch in Vernazza. The stop on the way back in pisa has nothing but a leaning tower and you can skip it if the leaning tower is not on your bucket list.

Cinque Terre Sunset Cruise with Aperitif from Monterosso

Leanne_D, Jul 2026

CT highlight

This was a highlight of our trip! The boat was clean and spacious with a full group of 10, everyone still had plenty of room to spread out. Ester was a wonderful captain. Rocco was fantastic, making sure drinks were full and graciously taking photos of each group at every town. The highlight was the two swimming stops and of course the magnificent sunset behind Monterosso. Don’t hesitate to book! This tour, boat and hospitality far exceeded the day trip with did with a different company! Bravo and grazie!

Cinque Terre Sunset Boat Tour Experience

Vanessa_B, Jul 2026

Absolutely MAGIC 💖

Our trip to Italy came with a few unexpected challenges, and if I’m honest, I left some days feeling discouraged. But this boat ride was everything I didn’t know my heart needed. From the moment we stepped aboard, Mateo and his assistant were incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. The conversation was effortless, the vibes were perfect, and they truly cared about giving everyone the best experience possible. What meant the most was how they read the moment. Instead of rushing us, they let us stay in the water longer because they could see everyone was enjoying it. It never felt like they were watching the clock. It felt like they were creating memories. Then came the ride back. The sun slowly dipped below the horizon, the sea turned to gold, and our own music played in the background. It was one of the most magical sunsets I’ve ever experienced. I literally had tears in my eyes. Thank you, Mateo, for creating a memory my kids and I will carry with us forever. I truly cannot recommend this experience enough. Some moments become part of your story, and this was one of them. 🤍🇮🇹🌅

Cinque Terre Boat Tours Experience

Katherine_S, Jul 2026

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)

Cinque Terre Small Group or Private Day Tour from Florence

Shant_A, Jun 2026

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.

Private Tour: Cinque Terre from La Spezia

KIM_H, Jun 2026

Great day exploring Cinque Terre!

we loved our guide Stefano! He is so knowledgeable about the area and we learned so much! He had great suggestions for restaurants and shopping. He guided us to all of the villages of Cinque Terrre by walking from one village to another as well as the train and the ferry. We loved experiencing all aspects and made it an adventure! Highly recommend!

Monterosso : Cinque Terre boat tour day or sunset with aperitif

Rachael_E, Jun 2026

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!

Pesto Class and Wine Tasting in Vernazza, Cinque Terre

Amanda_C, Jun 2026

Wine and Pesto - a great combination

Vernazza is such a quaint town. Cute shops. Going to the tasting/pesto making class at the end of the road is the perfect end to the visit. The wines paired well with the pesto. Learning how to make the pesto makes you truly appreciate what goes into having excellent pesto. The instructions were easy to understand and it was a fun afternoon with new friends and family.

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 Terre Private Boat Tour

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.
