Our driver and Guide, Alberto was wonderful. He spoke perfect English and described the countryside during the drive but was not too talkative. Each town he pointed out areas and landmarks then let us wander at our pace. Perfect day!

The towns of Cinque Terre are more beautiful than you can really describe and are definitely worth a visit. If your schedule allows I would definitely recommend this tour. My wife and I wanted to visit the area while staying in Florence and did not want to hassle with actually staying in one of the towns with luggage and everything. This tour was a perfect alternative. We had time for lunch, a few snacks, some shopping and plenty of time to just take in the beauty of the area. Be advised you start and end in Riomaggiore, necessitating a steep lengthy walk downhill upon arrival and the reverse on the departure. Those with any mobility issues should plan accordingly, it was definitely a strenuous walk back up the hill, but also worth it if you can manage. Our tour guide provided a great overview of the day as we were heading out and was very informative along the way. The what to expect description of this tour is very accurate and closely followed our day. Our driver stayed with us through much of the day, riding all forms of transportation and ensuring everyone arrived at the next place.

We had a great experience from the start to the end, our host Alberto, a very acknowledge person of all the city’s we passed by gave us an outstanding experience on the history of Cinque Terre and the city’s as we passed them by.. He also gave us a very good tour of Cinque Terre as we jump from city to city. He recommended a restaurant that was very delicious for a taste of Cinque Terre food. First time for the family to have a private guide and are first time in Firenze My family and I are very happy that we choose the right company with the right guide! He’s expertise was priceless !! 5 stars and plus. Best trip ever!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🥰🥰🥰 what a beautiful country side we experienced!!!!

Gabriele met us promptly at the door of The Grand Hotel Cavour. We enjoyed a nice ride to and from Cinque Terra and Pisa. Gabriele was a great driver who knew the routes, a good stop for Water Closets and cappuccinos, along the way, narrating the sites along the route: the location of the largest Chinatown in Europe, marble mining sites, the navy base near Cinque Terra. There were no surprises! This was the first day of low season and all of the seasonal changes didn’t give us one pause. Gabriele was prepared! He knows his business. I especially enjoyed his insights about the amazing natural scenery approaching Cinque Terra. He took us on a sea cliff walk where I observed the sea and crashing surf, gilds, cormorants, and robins. We enjoyed a nice meal and continued our tour seeing Riomaggiore, Manarola, and Vernazza. Then we drove to Pisa where we bought tickets to tour the leaning tower. What a great day. Thank you Gabriele

We absolutely loved our day trip to Cinque Terre and Pisa! The scenery was breathtaking, and everything was perfectly organized. Our guide was very considerate and knowledgeable — he explained everything clearly and made sure everyone in the group felt comfortable throughout the day. It was truly a wonderful experience and one of the highlights of our one-week stay in Florence. Highly recommended!

Sara picked us up at our accommodations bright and early. She was on time even with the very rainy weather. During the two hour drive from Florence to Cinque Terre, she told us stories, educated our group of seven on her country, and pointed out sights along the way. There was the perfect balance of conversation among ourselves, and conversations with Sara. The weather was terrible on the roads. Torrential downpours at various times. Sara was calm and in control at all times, and made us feel very safe on the road. Once we got to Cinque Terre, the sun came out, just as Sara had predicted:) We visited three of the five villages: Riomaggiore, Manarola and Vernazza. At each stop, Sara explained a brief overview of the community and set our group free for an hour or two, depending on which village we were in. She was always so kind and personable. I honestly feel like we made a friend for life. We opted to pay $17 Euro to walk Via dell’ Amore from Riomaggiore to Manorola, opposed to taking the train. The newly developed walkway was stunning and a flat and easy 15-20 minute walk, depending on your pace. Each village was more beautiful than the previous one. Sara assisted us with the train from Manarola to Vernazza. She guided us thru the crowds to a comfortable train car where we all sat together. We spent the longest time in Vernazza. Our group dined and shopped and took loads of photos. Sara chose a meeting spot for us, and always waited patiently for our whole group to arrive. We headed back to Manarola by train and then drove to Pisa. As soon as we crossed the mountains from Cinque Terre, the rain started again. We couldn’t have asked for better weather during our visit to Cinque Terre. It was raining when we arrived to Pisa, but Sara knew an entrance on the back side of the tower that would require a shorter walk to reach the tower for photo opts. It was perfect! Sara picked us up at 6:50am, and dropped us off at 6:30pm. It was a very long day with a personable, sweet, kind, intelligent, informative, knowledgeable guide! Do yourself a favor and book a tour with this company. I’m not sure if you can make request for a specific guide, but Sara will definitely make the whole experience the trip of a lifetime! She was such a delight! Thank you Sara!! We had the most amazingly memorable day!
