Da Firenze: Cinque Terre con Pisa e giro in barca

Good experience overall but we were disappointed that the boat ride was cancelled due to weather (not the guide’s fault!). We picked this slightly more pricey tour from many options due to the included boat ride and the villages of Manarola and Vernazza. There was a change of the second village Vernazza once the boat was cancelled (which was agreed by the whole group including us as we didn’t know enough to say no to Monteresso) and we went to Monteresso by train instead. However, we found Monteresso overcrowded, full of tourists, and we ended up self funding a return trip to Vernazza during our free time in Monteresso which made the trip even more expensive. We are glad we did this - the village is small but beautiful. Ps. I believe the boat ride costs more than train tickets - I think it should be company policy that if the boat gets stopped then you get something else of equal value to the difference in ticket prices.

This experience was extremely underwhelming and fell far short of what had been described and promised. Although our guide was very kind, her role was essentially limited to driving us between locations. At each stop, we were left on our own for one or two hours, with little to no guidance, context, or information about the places we were visiting. The advertised boat ride was, in fact, a public ferry, and the promised drinks were not provided. Had we been made aware of the actual nature of the experience in advance, we would never have booked it. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend this tour and would not do it again.

This tour to Cinque Terra on April 24, 2026 was wonderful! The guide was very knowledgeable and accommodating. He checked in with the group many, many times making sure that everyone was comfortable and everyone’s expectations were met. He made wonderful lunch recommendations as well. YUM! Towns of Italy provided one of the few tours we went on during our two week trip that was not cancelled, rescheduled, or changed in some other way. Thank you Tours of Italy!

This was a really special trip! We were a group of seven and our tour guide,Alessandro was fantastic. He went out of his way to explain things and make sure we were comfortable. He also gave us enough time to roam around freely. Quite a beautiful experience! We were lucky to take the ferry to another town & also went to other areas as well. Please have the wine!! Thank you truly Alessandro!

The guide, Grace , was lovely, warm and fun. She was an excellent driver of our very comfortable 8 person van . She snd Kristine did a great job of keeping us together and on time with lots of free time. And they did arrange our lunch which was not included in the tour price, but was much fun and excellent. I like learning more on a tour. There was not enough information given, but loved the little hikes we took and the boat-ride. It was a full and happy day with a most congenial group of people.

Great trip and experiance! It was our pleasure to be on this tour and recomending it to all of you! Special tnx to the tour guides Antoanella and especialy Tania, who was our guide and driver. We send all our praise to her and her collegue - great driver, full of very interesting and helpfull information, smiling all the time, hospitable, real proffesional, precise in time ... Time just pass by in very pleasent and joyfull moments!

I had a wonderful day trip to Cinque Terre with my excellent guide, Francesco! We explored three of the five main villages, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. I booked the small group tour with the minivan, which was perfect, intimate, comfortable, and with plenty of time to enjoy each town. I highly recommend this day trip, especially with Francesco as your guide!
