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.

5.00Tabata was an excellent tour guide! The day was action packed but also so smoothly run. The cities of Cinque Terre were breathtaking. Loved that we were able to include Pisa in the trip as well. Only an hour and 20 min there but it was enough time. Also so grateful to Roberto, our bus driver, who got us everywhere safely. Grazie Tabata and Roberto!

5.00Be to the bus at least 10 minutes early. We were on the run and there were 5 busses parked all going on different tours. We of course showed up on the dot for departure and it was a mad stressful scramble to find the right bus. (That was all on us). Once on the bus however, the rest of it was awesome! Plenty of time allowed for each of the stops. Tabitha, our tour host was great and so was our bus driver, Robert. Great day and great time! Very organized. We highly recommend this tour!
This was a great day long...

5.00This was a great day long excursion from Florence with my family of 5 including teenage and college age kids. It was well organized and we really appreciated being able to hand off all of the logistics so we could just enjoy the scenery. Since it was a hot day, we took advantage of swimming in the ocean for a few hours to cool off. Ornalla was our guide and she was fantastic. She was kind and knowledgeable, giving us a little history of everything we drove past on the drive from Florence to Cinque Terre. Overall we really enjoyed it.
Hot but worth it!

5.00The tour guide and driver Dani and Estefano were great. Dani was an amazing tour guide. Her knowledge and explanation was fantastic. It was very hot! The sites and views were breathtakingly unbelievable. The water was perfect. I wish we had more time but it was a long day and hot. Pisa was great a life long dream fulfilled.
There is some walking...

5.00There is some walking involved as the train does not go all the way into Cinque Terre or the bus into Pisa but it’s not a difficult walk. Just something to be aware of. The views and overall experience were amazing. Elizabetta was such a wealth of knowledge. She shared so many interesting facts about the area both in the bus ride over and once we were there.
