Dive headfirst into the Italian dream – *la dolce vita* – with this action-packed adventure to the Cinque Terre, a string of charming villages clinging to the Tuscan coast. Your journey starts in the heart of Florence, where you'll meet your expert guide. Settle in for a scenic, two-hour coach ride to La Spezia, enriched by fascinating insights into the Cinque Terre's history and charm. A quick stop for refreshments, and then it's all aboard the first train of the day! Manarola, the first jewel in the Cinque Terre crown, awaits. A delightful guided walk through sun-drenched vineyards sets the scene, followed by free time to soak up the village's unique atmosphere at your own pace. Next, hop on the train to Corniglia, a picturesque village perched high above the sea. Climb the charming steps to the village center and explore its captivating streets. Then, choose your own adventure: a guided hike to the equally stunning Vernazza, or a more relaxed train journey. In Vernazza, find a cozy café overlooking the azure waters or take a refreshing dip in the sea. From Vernazza, it's on to Monterosso, famous for its beautiful beaches and artisan shops. Weather permitting, a breathtaking boat trip along the Cinque Terre coastline awaits, offering unparalleled views of these captivating villages. Finally, arrive in Riomaggiore, the oldest of the five villages and a historic fishing haven. Explore its ancient streets before catching the train back to La Spezia and your comfortable coach journey back to Florence.
