Great trip enjoy Cinque Terre - An almost full bus arrived from Florence on time. We travelled to Levantine where we then boarded a train to Manarola. After spending time walking through the streets at our own pace, we reboarded the train to Monterosso. We time for lunch there, again cruising the streets of the old town, after which, we boarded a boat to Vernazza. We had sufficient time to look around the town, to take the wonderful architecture and scenery. Boarding the train again for a trip to Riomaggiore, the last town in the 5, but we didn’t visit the town of Cornelia. At Riomaggiore, we walked up,the streets to the wonderful church high above the railway station, giving marvellous views over the old town and coast. On the way down, we took a short cut back to the station by lift, sore legs from lots of wonderful scenery walking. The only thing we would have liked, was a longer trip on the boat, but otherwise, thoroughly enjoyed our trip, the tour leader and driver did their jobs very well. Thank you for a great day Viator.

An adventure of coaches, trains and a boat - When I was in this area, I knew I could not miss out on this trip, from the smooth booking online to the actual day, I was totally invested.
We had two guides one Spanish speaker the other English speaker and they where truly amazing, they where extremely thorough in their communication.
They guided a large group very effectively and had a great sense of humour
We had the lunch option which was of a very high standard - would highly recommend

Top tour guide and driver - Hello-Our trip was with Reko the driver and Frederica to cinque terre and 4 other towns all by train -Lunch was included -I just wanted to say how AMAZING our tour guide Frederica was and her driver Reko! He drove superbly on those crazy narrow roads way up to Cinque terre with great ease! My friend and I didn’t get off where we were to meet for lunch and Frederica guided us back -She was so cool about us making a mistake! She was the best! This company is very fortunate to have a guide who loves her job and it shows!
Thx Frederica for making our first trip to Italy AMAZING!

Exploring the different... - Exploring the different towns what’s the highlight. I have two complaints I was charged approximately $130 for the tour without lunch from Montecatiini. Another traveler was charged $100 with lunch from Florence. Why the difference? Also, something must be done with the long walk to get back to the bus after the tour.
