- La Spezia - Departing from Florence in the early morning, the route to Manarola traverses western Tuscany, crossing the Arno valley and passing through Pistoia and Lucca. As the journey continues toward the coast near Viareggio, travelers are treated to views of the Tyrrhenian Sea before reaching the marble-rich area of Carrara, with the white Apuan Alps visible in the distance. As La Spezia approaches, the landscape transitions from flat plains to rugged hills, marking the entrance to the stunning coastline of the Cinque Terre.

At the small harbor, one can enjoy one of the most iconic panoramic views of the Cinque Terre coastline. Following this introduction, there is free time to explore at leisure, take photographs, or relax by the sea before boarding the local train together to Monterosso.
