Monterosso al Mare

This tour gives you the opportunity to explore one of the most beautiful and stunning Italian landscapes in the world. The Cinque Terre, “Five Villages”, is a UNESCO World Heritage site with an enchanting coastline, with rare flora, and small villages that hug the coastline. You will have the chance to enjoy incredible views and scenery from the boat (weather permitting) and take splendid panoramic photos of the villages, characterised by their colourful houses. We will stop to visit the charming villages of: Vernazza, the tiniest and most unique village thanks to its medieval castle; Manarola, with its ancient case-torri; and Monterosso, the biggest fishing village of the Cinque terre. Monterosso is also renowned for its amazing beaches, so you will have plenty of time for a swim. We suggest to try a delicious artisan gelato by the beach, an incredible experience!
