Cinque Terre Day Trip
- 13 Stunden
Take a day trip to Cinque Terre - a group of fishing villages on the Italian Riviera. One of the best day trips from Florence.
Day Trip Details
The full-day trip begins early. Your guide will collect you from the meet point for a 2-hour air-conditioned coach journey to Cinque Terre, which comprises romantic villages along the rugged ravine.
The first stop is Manarola, the oldest of the villages. The economy is based on fishing and viticulture.
From Manarola, you will take a train to Vernazza, a charming fishing town. Free time will be provided for exploration of the port.
Next, you will travel to Monterosso, where you will spend approximately two hours. This village is known for its long beaches and crystal-blue sea. Weather permitting, stunning views of Cinque Terre will be visible from the water.
Finally, you will take a train to La Spezia, where the coach will be waiting to return you to Florence. The tour concludes at 7:30 pm at Piazzale Montelungo, near Santa Maria Novella station.
