Overview
You will be met at the port of Livorno by your representative.
The Italian Riviera is the narrow coastal strip that lies between the Ligurian Sea, and mountain chain formed by the Maritime Alps and the Apennines.
Famous for its particularly mild climate and the beauty of its landscape, the Italian Riviera has long been a popular tourist destination.
Along its coast lie many old fishing villages, whose charms have attracted many to the region.
One group of such villages is particularly popular, the Cinque Terre, the Five Lands, a portion of coast, which over the centuries has had terraces built on the rugged, steep landscape that even extend up to the cliffs that overlook the sea.
The Cinque Terre has a notable lack of ‘modern’ development, which has resulted in a truly spectacular landscape, the fishing villages blending in perfectly with the luscious vegetation and stunning blue sea.
Your driver/guide will be glad to suggest suitable places for lunch.
Seafood is plentiful in the local cuisine, given its location on the Mediterranean, and the Anchovies of Monterosso, a local specialty, are even designated with a Protection Designation of Origin status from the European Union.
Your driver will also be more than happy to show the beauty of these villages, taking you by local train from one to the other.
You’ll even be able to enjoy a walk along the ‘Via dell Amore’, The Love-Walk, a wheel-chair friendly trail that connects the villages of Riomaggiore and Manarola.
The 5 towns of Cinque Terre are: Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso.
The time you spend at the towns is dependent on your group’s choice.
Your assistant on the day will be able to advise how much time is recommended to spend at each town - only 3 towns can be visited in one day.
You will be collected from the port of Livorno and taken to the first of the villages, Riomaggiore where the driver will park the vehicle and accompany you to the discovery of the 5 villages.
The Cinque Terre is highly recommended to visit, however, there are a lot of steps, inclines and walking involved, comfortable walking shoes are a must and this tour is not recommended for guests who have walking difficulties.
Your tour does not included boat/trains between the different towns.
The all-day train ticket for Cinque Terre are available to purchase on the day for around €4 Euros per guest and it takes around 3-5 minutes to reach each village by train. Whatever towns your choose to visit, you will return to your ship at the end of your tour with unforgettable memories!
