During this tour, we will discover the Cinque Terre, the "Five Lands"—five picturesque fishing villages nestled between the sea and the sky, where time seems to have stood still.

Day 1: Exploring Manarola and the Path of Love

Arrival in Manarola by private bus, followed by a visit to the medieval Church of Saint Lawrence.

From the top of the village, we will descend toward the sea, passing through narrow streets, small waterfalls, and old mills.

Later, we will walk along the famous Path of Love (Via dell'Amore) to Riomaggiore.

Dinner at a typical restaurant and overnight at the hotel.

Day 2: Discovering Riomaggiore and Corniglia

Visit Riomaggiore, a charming and picturesque village with beautiful traditional shops.

In the afternoon, we will travel to Corniglia, the only one of the five villages without a true harbor on the sea.

Dinner and overnight at the hotel.

Day 3: Monterosso, Vernazza, and a Scenic Boat Tour

Visit Monterosso, the largest and most populated of the five villages.

We will visit the ancient Church of Saint John and enjoy a walk along the seafront. Free time for shopping.

In the afternoon, we will visit Vernazza.

Then, we will take a boat tour to admire all five villages from the sea.

In the evening, our tour will conclude in La Spezia.

Explore More About Manarola:

Manarola, built on a high rock 70 meters above sea level, is one of the most charming and romantic villages in the Cinque Terre.

The small harbor features a boat ramp, colorful houses overlooking the sea, and a tiny piazza lined with seafood restaurants.

Along the main street, boats are pulled onto dry land whenever the sea becomes rough.

Although Manarola does not have a traditional beach, it offers some of the best deep-water swimming in the region.

The village is full of steep, narrow alleys known as carrugi, which lead down to the sea.

If you venture to the top of Manarola, be sure to visit the church. In earlier times, its bell tower was used as a lookout for potential pirate raids.

We recommend the scenic hike from Manarola to Volastra and then to Corniglia.

The first section of the trail includes a steep climb of approximately 1,200 steps, which can be avoided by taking the bus from Manarola to Volastra. Buses usually run once every hour.

The trail passes through spectacular vineyard terraces supported by dry stone walls and offers breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Cinque Terre villages.

This hiking trail is free to access, and no hiking pass is required.
