A Highlight of Our Trip to Italy!
This hike of Cinque Terre was one of the highlights of our mother/daughter vacation. Pall was an exceptional guide, never rushed, and made sure we had a wonderful day. Thanks to his extensive knowledge, we were able to experience the beauty of Cinque Terre away from the crowds. He introduced us to the flora and fauna, historical facts, and a local’s perspective of this beautiful area as we hiked, visited other villages, and sampled amazing gelato! It was worth every penny, and more. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants an individualized experience of this amazing part of the world and a wonderful memory to look back on.

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.

The 1-1/2 hours of travel...
The 1-1/2 hours of travel from Florence to Cirque Terre was a smooth ride in van. We saw three of the five villages traveled by train. Had time to travel, eat, shop, walk at our own pace. Lots of hill walking but my wife and I in our 60s managed well. Tour guide Lapo great at driving and his information.Enjoyable day.

Enjoy the amazing views of the Cinque Terre coastline by land and sea.
We really enjoyed our tour of three villages located in the gorgeous Cinque Terre region of Italy. Our tour guide, Veronica was quite knowledgeable and also kind. We discovered and learned about the history highlights of Monterosso, Vernazza and Manarola.

Cinque Terre Day Trip from Florence
We had a wonderful day long tour with Yardis! He was extremely relaxed, knowledgeable, and thorough. He made sure everyone was comfortable and well taken care of during this multiple stop tour. There was a perfect balance on tour/information, and free time to explore.

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!

Wonderful day in cinque terre
Loredana was a wonderful guide and ensured the tour was optimised for my wife and I. It is a long day given 3hr train trip each way from Milan, but definitely worth it.
Having a personal guide compared to group tours is a much better way to see these beautiful towns and small streets. Insight knowledge, accommodating your interests, etc... certainly made the day extra special.
Thank you again Loredana for making this such a special day.

Great tour highly recommended
Simone was great! A wonderful and cheerful guide. He provided his mom’s (Laura) pesto which is the best we ever had!
I would highly recommend this tour. We had unfortunate weather that hindered our ability to go out of the port of poets. Communication about the conditions was timely, accurate and honest.

The Best Views
This was a fantastic experience and we enjoyed every minute of it. Mateo and William were excellent navigators and guides. The weather turned a bit early while we were out and they went above and beyond to keep us safe and to keep the boat as controlled as possible. The lunch and wine was also excellent. Would recommend this for anyone in the area.

The captain and mate were...
The captain and mate were so great. They were knowledgeable about the towns and shared the history of Cinque Terre. They were proficient in taking great photos as well. Highly recommend this trip! They had a great Focaccia board, water, soda, wine and proscecco.

This tour was just my...
This tour was just my husband and I and another couple which made it more relaxing. The veiws from the water is worth it! Our guide was pretty chill and let us do our thing, but was also very knowledgeable when we asked questions. There is an option to swim, none of us did as we all just wanted to relax and have a few drinks. Highly recommend if you want to see all 5 villages from the water and the sunset is unmatched!
