What To Expect
Florence
Sit back and relax as we take a 2.5 hour ride via comfortable, air-conditioned coach. Your guide will entertain you with tales of the area as you cross two regions: Tuscany and Liguria. Both are rich with history, cultures and traditions that deserve to be told. Upon arrival, you’ll be escorted to a quaint and comfortable local train. Enjoy the journey along the coast line, breathing in the fresh sea air and admiring a view like no other.
Manarola
Then it is “all aboard!” as you are taken by train to the charming town of Manarola, characterized by its narrow streets and small square looking out over the sea. It is so picturesque it will seem like you’ve stepped into a Renaissance painting. But it is entirely authentic, we assure you. If you want to make the most out of this Cinque Terre experience, we also offer an optional walk, for those who want to see the stunning mainland and coastline scenery from a different perspective. Let your tour leader guide you through the terraced vineyards, the ancient olive groves and the spectacular panoramic views that will stay in your memories forever.

5.00Elisabeth was a nice, helpful and very clear in all information to us travelers. Also a lot of extra tips, pictures and links to entertainment, restaurants, markets etc, Mattia was very professional behind the wheel on narrow streets! Highly recommended! However, I would rather visit Maniola instead of Monteresso…
It was a great day,...

5.00It was a great day, despite dampening weather that is due to how Nathan guided us from the start to the end. Nathan was very clear with instructionss, timing and best way to maximise the experience. He even provided recommendations for great restaurants.

5.00We had 3 days in Florence and wanted to experience a bit more outside of the city. We had no idea how much we would enjoy the tour of Cinque Terre and Pisa! Nathan was the best!!
Great Break from touring the City!

5.00This tour was an excellent break from our visit in Florence! The various cities that make up Cinque Terre are beautiful and getting to spend some time at the beach was divine. And on our way back we got to mark a stop at the Leaning Tower of Pisa off our bucket list. Nathan was a great guide who hooked us up with a great lunch recommendation and tips and tricks for maximizing our day outside the city!
