Overview

Enjoy a scenic ride through Tuscany to La Spezia, where your self-guided Cinque Terre adventure begins. Your driver will share local tips before dropping you at the train station. The local train, running every five minutes, offers breathtaking views as it connects the villages. Explore at your own pace: admire Riomaggiore’s harbor, stroll Manarola’s clifftop paths, and soak in Vernazza’s colorful charm. If time allows, visit Corniglia or Monterosso. Whether you hike, relax by the sea, or enjoy local cafés, the train offers flexibility to experience Cinque Terre your way. At day’s end, return to La Spezia by train, where your driver will be ready to take you back to Florence. *Note: Train tickets are not included; expect ~€5 per person per ride.
