Review of the Cinque Terre day tour from Florence, with small-group transport, coastal boat and train rides, village stops, costs, and practical tips.
“Unfortunately it was a disaster due to bad weather. However Ayub tried to accommodate and took us to Lucca however it poured there too. Ayub was wonderful though. If we had good weather it would have been wonderful.”

Review of the Florence to Cinque Terre day trip, with village walks, train and boat rides, optional lunch, swimming, price, and practical tips.
“This was such a wonderful compact day trip. We had a group of pleasent tourists, a fun guide, a comfy bus with an experienced driver. I expected much more walking but we took the train between the villages and we did not have that much time to wander far. We singed up for the tour including lunch (food was excellent) which meant that we had less time to walk in the village or go to the beach after . I wish the tour was just an hour or 2 longer so we could really enjoy the place. But all in all i do recommend going on this trip.”

Cruise all five Cinque Terre villages from Monterosso at sunset with Ligurian focaccia, drinks, a small group, and a swim stop.
“The cruise started too early to really be a sunset cruise, and it ended an hour earlier than advertised as well. It took 30 minutes to ferry everyone out in a tiny boat (which ran out of gas partway through). I don't recommend wearing a dress. The host put out some drinks and snacks, and told us to serve ourselves (they did keep the wine flowing, though). They paid no attention to us for the rest of the trip, and ignored anyone trying to ask questions about the coastline. It was still a lovely boat ride, but I was expecting a little more from the experience.”

“Simone, the captain was wonderful! Since a local, well versed on the cities, and much more. Also very patient and kind. Answered any random questions we had. Perfect amount of time at each city getting spectacular water views. His mother made our homemade pesto, yummy! His boat is very comfortable too. I would highly recommend this tour, especially with Simone as your captain/tour guide!”
