Description

Set out from Florence for a full-day adventure to Italy’s stunning Cinque Terre National Park. This guided journey takes you along the Ligurian coast, where you’ll explore a string of UNESCO-listed fishing villages, each famous for their vibrant houses, dramatic cliffs, and breathtaking sea views.

Meet your tour leader at Piazzale Montelungo Bus Terminal in Florence and relax on a comfortable, air-conditioned coach with free WiFi as you head toward the coast. After arriving in La Spezia, you’ll travel between the villages by train and, weather permitting, by boat, enjoying commentary and tips from your expert guide along the way.

Discover the charm of Manarola, stroll Monterosso’s white-sand beaches, and wander Vernazza’s picturesque harbor. Each stop offers free time to soak up the unique atmosphere, snap photos, and sample local delicacies. If you select the lunch option, savor a typical meal featuring regional recipes.

Riomaggiore welcomes you with its cliffside homes and artisan shops, perfect for last-minute souvenirs. After a day of exploration, return to Florence in the early evening, filled with memories of Italy’s most beautiful coastline. Book your Cinque Terre adventure now—spaces fill quickly, so secure your spot today!
