- Walkabout Tour Pick Up - Get ready for an extraordinary journey where rich history and stunning natural landscapes come together to create an unforgettable experience. Relax in your comfortable, fully equipped luxury coach as the tour heads towards the renowned Cinque Terre.
- La Spezia - The journey from Florence to the Cinque Terre begins by coach, allowing you to unwind as your guide shares fascinating stories about the area. Learn about the Tuscan city of Lucca and its famous resident Puccini, and catch a glimpse of the Carrara marble quarries before discovering the Cinque Terre and its five fishing villages—Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, Monterosso, and Riomaggiore—that make up the national park. Upon arrival in La Spezia, your expert tour leader will guide you through the next stage of your journey. With their helpful guidance and insights, you’ll board the train to continue your adventure.
- Manarola - Arriving by train, explore the picturesque village of Manarola, one of the most iconic towns of the Cinque Terre. With its colorful houses perched above the sea, narrow lanes, and charming piazza overlooking the water, Manarola offers a truly unforgettable setting. Take time to wander through the village, enjoy the views of the Ligurian coastline, and soak up the relaxed atmosphere of this historic fishing community.
For those interested, there is an optional walk led by your tour leader that ascends above the village to reach spectacular panoramic viewpoints. Along the way, pass through the terraced vineyards that define the Cinque Terre landscape while enjoying breathtaking views of the coastline and the sparkling sea below.
- Corniglia - The journey continues to Corniglia, the only village of the Cinque Terre perched high above the sea. Unlike the other towns, Corniglia sits on a rocky promontory surrounded by terraced vineyards, offering breathtaking views over the coastline and the sparkling Ligurian Sea. With its quiet charm, colorful houses, and narrow lanes, it feels like a peaceful retreat away from the crowds.
Take time to wander through the small streets, admire the scenic viewpoints, and experience the authentic atmosphere of this unique village. You will also have free time to enjoy lunch, giving you the opportunity to relax at a local restaurant or café and savor the flavors of Ligurian cuisine before continuing your adventure.
If you choose the tour option with Pisa, you will be visiting Vernazza, Monterosso, and Riomaggiore.
- Vernazza - After lunch, embark on a real adventure: a hike of approximately two miles along the medieval mule trails that skirt the cliffs and connect the hilltop towns of the Cinque Terre (if you choose the tour option without hiking, the train will be used instead to move between villages). Leave the trail upon reaching the village of Vernazza, one of the prettiest and most characteristic areas you will see on the Cinque Terre tour. Here, enjoy some free time to sit in one of the cheerful bars and cafés or even have a refreshing swim in the sea – it’s the perfect time to get refreshed and prepare for the next part of the tour.
- Monterosso al Mare - After departing Vernazza, the group will take a short train ride to Monterosso, a village renowned for its beautiful beach and artisan shops. Here, you will have the option to relax on the golden sands, browse the shops for souvenirs, or even sample some local wine.
- Riomaggiore - Depending on the weather conditions, the next part of the experience is an optional boat ride along the coast to Riomaggiore, which can otherwise be reached by train. Riomaggiore is the southernmost town of the Cinque Terre and one of its most picturesque. Colorful houses cascade down the steep hillside toward the small harbor, creating the iconic scene that has made this village famous around the world.
- Pisa - For guests who have chosen the Pisa option, the journey concludes with a visit to this historic Tuscan city, renowned worldwide for its remarkable architectural treasures. Upon arrival, head to the spectacular Piazza dei Miracoli, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to some of Italy’s most celebrated monuments.
Here, take time to admire the iconic Leaning Tower of Pisa, the magnificent Cathedral, and the impressive Baptistery, all set within the beautiful green lawns of the square. Capture memorable photos of the famous tower and soak in the unique atmosphere of this historic city.
This visit to Pisa marks the final stop of the tour for those who have selected the Pisa option, offering a perfect ending to a day filled with unforgettable sights and experiences.
- Florence - After a day filled with unforgettable sights, it’s time to relax and begin the comfortable journey back to Florence. Sit back aboard your coach and enjoy the scenic drive through the beautiful Tuscan and Ligurian landscapes as you reflect on the charming villages, breathtaking coastal views, and memorable moments of the day.
Arrive back in Florence in the evening, bringing your Cinque Terre adventure to a pleasant and relaxing conclusion.
