Review of Cinque Terre with Martha

5.00Martha our guide and driver arrived promptly for pickup. We were the only two people on the tour and Martha was so friendly and warm, it made conversation during our drive so easy. She was a fabulous guide, taking us to 3 of the 5 villages. We had a great day visiting Cinque Terre.
Good Tour

4.00My wife and I did this tour today. It was enjoyable although the heat made it tough. There were 12 of us in a van for the 1.5 hr trip each way. The van was full. In general the tour was ok. The guide did a decent job and our driver was good also. Based on the cost (they all seem to be about the same cost), I would take the train and pay for the ferry myself (had I of known). I think you could cut the cost in at least 1/2 and not be in that "herding" mode. All in not horrible but not exceptional either.

5.00This was a good way to see an area that would be difficult to see on your own with parking, mountainous roads, etc. The itinerary allowed free time in each stop, which was appreciated. The area was very touristy, filled with cruise ship large groups, which made it challenging to get around but our tour worked around that. There was not as much steep walking as we thought, which was good
Very interesting,...

5.00Very interesting, cultural and beautiful colorful villages built on the cliffs overlooking the ocean.
Underwhelmed … did not meet our expectations based on the tour description.

3.00Our expections of what the tour involved were not what we got. From the details of the tour we expected to visit the villages (at least 3) by water by private charter after the bus trip from lucca. Instead the bus dropped us off at the 1st village & then we caught a public ferry to the next village & then the train to the 3rd village where we were picked up by the bus…. No real guided tour as such as each location our guide advised where to meet him & at what time then you were left for “free” time. There was no history or insight into the villages culture etc. very underwhelmed.
Great day trip exploring the towns on Cinque Terre

5.00Really great day out exploring the towns on Cinque Terre, our guide Martha was great and gave some good recommendations for lunch in Monterosso. If you’re after some beautiful ceramics that are made locally, I would highly recommend the store in Maranola, the first town we stopped at along the trip. The other towns’ offerings were not as good and I wish I could go back and buy more.

5.00Excellent day trip with Marta as our guide. We had a full vehicle with 12, however she used a microphone so it was easy to hear her speak in very clear English. Marta gave us lots of local information. At each location, she would take us in to the town, explain what to see and where to go. We could do a little bit of each walk. At Monterosso, we were given several eating options with Marta describing each place. There was ample time to explore our three destinations. It was beautiful seeing the towns from the ferry as well as the land. We really valued her taking us into the towns and guiding us around before our free time.
Great tour and tour guide

5.00We enjoyed a wonderful day with our tour guide Marie (Mare). We learned so much from her about the area and she took us to the most beautiful places in Cinque Terre. We would definitely recommend and do again.
Great day on Cinque Terra

5.00This was a lovely tour from start to finish. The small group experience was very nice… just 7 of us. Our guide, Marta, was excellent and gave a lot of information on the ride and from town to town. The weather was good so we were able to use the ferry. Highly recommend.
Maximized the experience!

5.00Our Cinque Terre day trip with Marta was excellent! She was knowledgeable, fun and interesting. We never would have been able to plan and execute this trip on our own. We got to see so much for a single day journey and the time spent at each location was perfect with about 45 min at the first two villages and 2 hours or so at the last one. The ride was beautiful and we got helpful information on the way there with time to relax and rest on the way home. I would absolutely recommend this for first time travelers to Cinque Terre
