So glad we went! - Beautiful sites, unbelievable history, all with a great guide! We were physically unable to traverse some of the hills and steps so our guide, Angel, modified the experience for us. He was amazing and so was the trip. So happy we went!

Beautiful day in Cinque Terre - Wonderful tour with amazing scenery. It was a full day from 7AM till 9PM. Beautiful place to visit but be prepared for lots of walking and lots of steps. We did over 5 miles and 30 flights of stairs. The lunch we had was fantastic. Would recommend this tour.

Great excursion. - We had an AMAZING guide, his name is Johnny. Fortunately for us we had him to ourselves that day. He was with us every step of the way and we couldn’t have done it without him. Everything was set up by him and went very smoothly, the trains, boat & lunch which was delicious. He took us to 4 of the Villages and explained everything, answered questions and was very interesting. Cinque Terre was absolutely beautiful more than I could have imagined. It was our most expensive tour but well worth the money.

Great Adventure at our own pace. - My wife and I took this excursion as part of our Florence visit. It was a pleasure in all respects. Our group leader, Johnnie, was friendly, informative, and did a tremendous job of coordinating our tour, we would ask for him again for future tours. Cinque Terre is very hilly, be forewarned, a lot of walking involved. We are in our 70's, Johnnie was more than accommodating in letting us walk at our own pace. Due to weather, we were not able to take the boat trip, but the four towns we were able to see more than made up for it. The train was a pleasure moving from town to town. Lunch was perfectly arranged and delicious. The small group format was absolutely worth the price, highly recommended.

An Angel of a guide - This is the way to tour! We had an amazing guide - Angel (but of course he was an angel) He was so informative and shared tons of information as we drove from our hotel and to the train for our adventure. We saw 3 of the 5 towns and had lunch. The entire experience left us very delighted and educated. We were well cared for and highly recommend Angel and his company for your own experience.

A perfect day in Cinque Terre! - Angel gave us a day we will never forget! He customized our trip to Cinque Terre to include everything we wanted and more - time in each town, a hike through the national park, incredible wine, seafood, and pasta. He navigated the train and boat schedules, restaurant reservations, and travel to and from Florence with ease! Angel was so kind, knowledge, and he made it so easy for us to enjoy this special part of Italy!

Take this tour and hope you get Fred as your guide! You will get such an incredible day in Cinque Terre! - One of the very best things we did in Italy! This tour was amazing. We happened to be the only couple who signed up for the tour this day, so ended up with a private tour. Our guide, Fred, made the whole thing so incredible. He was interesting, funny, a blast to hang out with and had such great insights! And he brilliant timed navigating the four villages we visited in an unconventional order to avoid the crowds and tour buses—it was genius! I fully expected mobs of tourists everywhere (especially later in the day), but they never materialized thanks to his knowledge of when to be where to give us the best experience possible. Not to mention his killer walking tours of all the villages to get us the best views while teaching us about the history, culture, geology, flora and more. And don’t let the cost deter you. It is absolutely worth it. We did a lot of curated tours and guided day trips from Florence on our visit — this one was on the more expensive side but we totally felt like we got our money’s worth and then some. It’s a full day but it never feels either rushed or dull (even the 2-hour drives to and from La Spezia were fun thanks to Fred’s engaging conversation and knowledge). And the whole tour was really just chocked full of so much more substance and way better experiences than you’d get trying to make the trek yourself or with a larger group tour. Though we were the only people on our tour by chance, it was obvious that Fred’s skills as a guide would ensure it would still be fantastic if a few more couples had joined—he is so, so much more than just a driver and was absolutely the best guide we had in Italy.

Amazing experience - Johnny was a fantastic guide!! He guided you on some hiking paths or let you explore on your own. The lunch provided was at a delicious restaurant in Vernazza. Not skimpy! Seeing 4 out of the 5 Cinque Terre towns was an absolute delight.
