Cinque Terre:Between Sea & Sky

OVERVIEW

A national park and UNESCO World Heritage site, the Cinque Terre is composed of five ancient villages; each different from the other but all perched dramatically on cliffs facing the Ligurian sea. You’ll wonder at the lovely terraced landscape of vineyards & olive groves; the colorful villages tumbling down the cliffside toward the sea.
 
Your English-speaking driver will bring you to Riomaggiore, the southernmost village, where you’ll decide how many of the towns to visit and by which method of transportation (hike, boat or train). Your driver, fully at your disposal the entire day, will give you the best recommendation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

 
The Cinque Terre or “Five Lands” consists of the towns: Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso al Mare. Each has its own personality and particularity. Historically, these once isolated towns were connected only via footpaths winding through the hills or the sea. The area only became accessible to the outside world with the arrival of the railroad line in the late 1800’s.
 
It’s this isolation that helped to preserve the character & beauty of the area and of each town. Enjoy a day exploring this special coastline, with its kaleidoscope of color: azure sky, verdant hillsides, grey cliffs, turquoise sea & gaily colored houses. Discover each town’s secrets and singularities; then decide which is your personal favorite.
