Sunset Boat Tour to Cinque Terre with aperitif on board

Andy_A, Aug 2026

Great tour, great food, great guides

I have done a lot of travelling, and been on a lot of boat trips, but this was definitely up there as one of the best. Even though I the captain and team must have done this a thousand times it felt like he was telling the stories for the first time, really amazing team, and the food and drinks we're top notch. A sunset boat trip I'll never forget, definitely helped by the eclipse, but even without the light show I would recommend it!

Amazing Boat Tour

The Cinque Terre boat tour was one of the most amazing boat tour we have done. The boat is super nice. The crew members are very nice and knowledgeable about the area. We really enjoyed the tour. It was the highlight of our trip to Cinque Terre. Strongly recommend.

La Spezia: Pasta & Tiramisu Class in a Local Home by Cesarine

Renee_S, Jul 2026

Amazing experience!

This is the excursion you brag about to your friends. The one where you’re in the beautiful home of a local Italian family, learning their grandparents recipes, meeting their pets, sample fruit from their trees. The one where you ask yourself “why don’t we make gnocchi as a family every Sunday?” and reconnect with a calm way of life. Elisa was wonderful. Her home is exactly what you’d imagine. Her family was warm and welcoming. The conversation was diverse and rich, and the language barrier made it all the more fun and interesting. And of course, the food was incredible. If you are cruising, I recommend arranging transportation at the port. The taxi situation is a bit hectic.

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)

Florence/Pisa

Our guide Sharif was excellent , informative and very cordial. He had great local knowledge for this trip. Just be aware there is alot of walking, we did over 6 miles..as well as bus seat time, roughly 4.5 to 5 hours in the bus. Bus was comfortable but, no bathroom and whomever the bus company was arrange for a bus the didn't have enough seats ..therefore, our guide Sharif , was sitting on the floor all the time.. All in all a great trip to wonderful city..Unfortunately, not enough time in each city to truly explore..a reason to return

We had the pleasure of...

We had the pleasure of having Raphale spend the day with our family for a second time, this time showing us the beautiful coastal Cinque Terre towns. What an absolutely beautiful place made even more special by Raphale telling us about the history and giving us the highlights. After two trips in one week with Raphale, he was like part of our family. I highly recommend using him for any activities to see the beautiful country of Italy and learning about the history and culture. Thank you Raphale!!!

This was a really great...

This was a really great day! We really enjoyed the history and beauty of the tour. Veronica did a really nice job explaining everything. Only negative for some people was that the ferry ride was quite difficult for many due to the rough sea. For those of us that were ok with the waves, we were not able to see the beauty of the view from the ferry since the boat was rocking so much.

Great Tour of Cinque Terre in April

Lorenzo and William were great! We were a family of 8 and had plenty of room. They were knowledgeable and gave us the history of the area. Having a bathroom was key with our group of 8 with 2 kids. Our tour was on 4/19 so it was to chilly to jump in but the weather was great! They told us about Porto Venere so we went there the next day.
