A wonderful sea side excursion!
This was a great experience that was made even more special by our driver/tour guide, Ricardo! His professionalism knowledge, and humor were greatly appreciated. When I asked about a great Florence restaurant recommendation he readily suggested the restaurant he would take his own family to. This was a highly rated Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant that would have been impossible to get a prime time reservation slot. But he helped to make that happen.
On the Cinque Terre side he helped us strategize to get our best experience possible. And the Five Lands did not disappoint. From the fresh sea food and service, to the wonderful views. A great experience!
Thank you Ricardo!

Our tour was amazing!...
Our tour was amazing! David did a beautiful job at navigating between each stop and making sure we were all informed and taken care of. He gave us little tidbits about each location, but also allowed us time to explore on our own, and even gave us a special experience by calling ahead for a lunch reservation and had cold prosecco waiting in the car after a difficult hike up a massive hill! There were 6 people in our tour. There is a bit of walking needed in this tour, and lots of stairs, so just be informed about that if you have mobility concerns. Overall an absolutely lovely day!

Great to see Cinque Terre from the sea
A great way to see the 5 towns from the water, and get a different perspective from being on land. Sea was a little choppy but the captain navigated it well so it was a comfortable trip. Extremely friendly guide and captain, generous snacks and beverages.

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!

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.

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.

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 trips showcase the best of Italy’s Ligurian coast by touring the five colorful villages tucked between cliffs and the sea. Many excursions center around the Mediterranean and include time on the water, whether by private boat, paddleboard, or kayak. On land, you can hike the scenic trails that connect the villages, enjoy local food and wine tastings, or join a small-group walking tour to learn about the region’s history. With round-trip transfers from nearby cities, along with expert guides, day trips ensure that exploring the beauty of Cinque Terre in a day is both easy and memorable.
