What's included

Itinerary

1. 1

   Stazione La Spezia Centrale

   22min

   It is the busiest of the four stations serving the city (the others are La Spezia Migliarina and Ca' di Boschetti for travelers and La Spezia Marittima for cargo in the port itself). Along the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea, the station may be found on the line that connects Genoa and Pisa.

2. 2

   Riomaggiore

   1h 30min

   Riomaggiore is one of the five villages that comprise the Cinque Terre, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This town is famous for its multicolored stone cottages that give the appearance of being stacked on top of one another, as well as its harbor, which is filled with traditional fishing boats. It is also considered to be one of the most popular tourist spots in all of Italy.

3. 3

   Corniglia

   1h 30min

   After the fall of Rome, very little is known about Corniglia; nonetheless, in the 13th century, it became a part of the Republic of Genoa. Corniglia is still famed for its wine, and travelers who want to experience the Cinque Terre but stay in a calm, less-trodden area seek out the village. Corniglia is located in the southernmost part of the Cinque Terre.

4. 4

   Vernazza

   1h 30min

   Vernazza is the fourth town on the route heading north, it is one of the most authentic "fishing villages" on the Italian Riviera, and it does not allow automobile traffic. It is the only natural harbor on Cinque Terre, and it is well-known for the sophisticated homes that can be found there. The name Vernazza originates from the Latin word verna, which translates to "native" in English.

5. 5

   Monterosso al Mare

   1h 30min

   The Cinque Terre are comprised of five different coastal communities, the most well-known of which is Monterosso al Mare. The village may be found on several rolling hills that are farmed with lemon trees, grapevines, and olive trees. This quaint little town on the Ligurian Riviera is known for having some of the friendliest locals thanks to the wonderful beaches, stunning reefs, and incredibly clear waters that surround it.
