Stop 1 – Riomaggiore
Board the local train in La Spezia and in less than 10 minutes reach Riomaggiore, the first of Cinque Terre’s five enchanting villages. Stroll through its narrow cobbled streets lined with colorful houses, explore its picturesque harbor filled with fishing boats, and take in postcard-perfect views of the sea.

Stop 4 – Scenic Boat Ride
If sea conditions allow, board a boat ride from Manarola to Vernazza, the most photographed of the Cinque Terre villages (boat service operates roughly from March to October). Enjoy the sun, the sea and from the water, admire panoramic views of Corniglia and the stunning Ligurian coastline — perfect for unforgettable photos.
Stop 3 – Vernazza (by boat or train)
Upon arrival in Vernazza, explore its charming harbor, medieval watchtower, and the Church of Santa Margherita d’Antiochia. Take a break for lunch at a seaside trattoria where your guide can recommend authentic local dishes and reserve a table for you.
Stop 4 – Monterosso al Mare
