Best tour guide! - Thommaso gave our private tour to Cinque Terra. He was the best tour guide of our trip. He made the long drive so much fun, and we learned so much about the region! I will definitely rebook with him next time we come to Italy. Thank you Thommaso!

Perfect Day ⛱️🌊☀️⛴️ - What a day in Cinque Terre! Our driver/tour guide, Nunzio, was very kind and informative. Our day was filled with breath taking views, ferry rides, cliff jumping, swimming, shopping, and a fabulous cliff side lunch. My family called it the perfect day!

A Perfect Day in Cinque Terre and Pisa – Nunzio Made It Unforgettable! - We recently took a private day tour of Cinque Terre and the Leaning Tower of Pisa from Florence with Nunzio, and I cannot say enough good things about the experience. Traveling with my family—including my 80-year-old mother—I was a bit concerned about the pace and logistics of the trip. But from the moment we met Nunzio, all worries disappeared. Nunzio was incredibly meticulous and thoughtful in every aspect of the day. He helped my mother in and out of the spotless Mercedes van at every stop, always making sure she was comfortable and well-cared for. The van itself was immaculate, air-conditioned to the perfect temperature, and stocked with cold bottled water for all of us—just one of many small but appreciated touches. Throughout the journey, Nunzio shared fascinating stories and historical details about every region we passed. His knowledge of the area—and passion for sharing it—elevated the entire experience. In Cinque Terre, he accompanied us from village to village, ensuring we saw the most beautiful spots, avoided crowds when possible, and had time to really enjoy each location. He even arranged lunch at a fantastic restaurant in Vernazza with stunning views overlooking the sea—hands down one of the best meals of our trip. Nunzio also took us to the best viewpoints for photos and encouraged us to slow down, take it all in, and enjoy the magic of the coastline. From start to finish, Nunzio went above and beyond. His professionalism, warmth, deep knowledge of the region, and genuine care for our comfort made this tour one of the highlights of our Italy trip. If you’re looking for a private tour with someone who truly loves what he does and takes pride in delivering an exceptional experience, look no further than Nunzio. Highly, highly recommended!

Amazing tour and tour guide - Amazing experience and tour. Nunzio was an incredible tour guide. He went at the pace we wanted, was patient and tailored the tour to our desires. We saw beautiful scenery, learned a lot and had fun. He arranged the most amazing lunch and table overlooking the ocean. Highly recommend !

Cinque Terre in June - Nunzio was a wonderfully attentive and knowledgeable guide. It was so nice to learn about the various towns and industries as we made our way to the lovely Cinque Terre area. This was a great way to spend our first full day in Italy

Charlotteans in Cinque Terre - I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nunzio personally and this tour professionally! He was so friendly, so knowledgeable, and steered us so perfectly to this AMAZINGLY beautiful destination. We spent a day trip to 3 towns in Cinque Terre and had the most delirious lunch imaginable (we all agreed it was the top meal of our trip….which is really saying something!!!). We just wish we could have spent more time by the beach, but it was wonderful to have a short trip to where we will come back the next time we visit Italy! We loved this journey and wish there were more hours given to certain days😃!!! THANK YOU🥰🥰🥰

Some spectacular moments—including our favorite experience in our entire trip to Italy - Luca was lovely. We got to see three of the five Cinque Terre villages, which felt a bit hectic—there was a lot of driving—but had some picture-perfect moments along the way. And I would have gladly made the trip just for the memorable, once-in-a-lifetime lunch experience Luca arranged for us, which was the highlight of our entire trip to Italy. This extraordinary restaurant spot includes a private table tucked into a nook carved into a cliff with a spectacular view overlooking the sea. As a bonus, the local food was great and the waiter was a blast, too .

Cinque Terra is a very beautiful protected area. It is a scenic coastal gem. I’ve never seen anything like it. - Our tour guide was Nunzio. He was friendly, experienced, and informative. He expertly navigated through the congested traffic and safely brought us to Cinque Terra. He helped us obtain ferry tickets and arranged a lovely lunch at a local seaside restaurant. Nunzio is a great guide. We highly recommend him.
