Cinque Terre Full Immersion

I'd recommend this tour to anyone who wants to visit Cinque Terre in one day. We had a blast and our tourist guide "Melody" is the best. We had a blast!!!!

Tried to cover 5 villages in a day, changing trains, boat and with 80 people in a group is ridiculous. Even with 2 guides this was not a great package. I would take a small group tour if possible. The guide tried their best but they could not accompany us everywhere, just not possible with so many. They were trying to maintain schedule and keep everyone together. We felt rushed because when we got there we had to figure out on our own. The guide would lead us to the village and point to the main street, 'go there and come back in 30 minutes at a meeting point'. I wish some more history of the villages would have been better. Other than painted houses perched on the cliffs I did not come away with anything that I will remember. The tour company should seriously consider smaller groups. There were a lot of smaller tour groups where the guide was with them till the end or to the beach or to the attraction points and tell about the history or interesting stories related to these magnificent villages.

We had a wonderful time, the tour was really well organized we got to sightsee, swim, shop and go on a boat and we had a great time, our tour leader was Constantino, he was really good and funny, so I think this is the best tour to spend time in Cinque Terre!

Great way to see the towns in Cinque Terra for the first time. Glad we did lunch on our own so we could spend more time at the beach in Monterosso. It was a long day but well worth it.

Great trip and the scenery was out of this world. Long day but were we all glad we saw Cinque Terra. Would go back again and stay several days.

The place was wonderful, a great place to visit, but they shouldn't call this a tour, instead they should just call it transportation. There was 0 tour guidance but rather here we are, meet us at the train station in an hour. Off to the next town, here is the town, meet us back here in 45minutes. etc etc. Save yourself the money, now that I know, I would have taken a train to La Spezia then the local trains to each town and boom that's your tour.

Overall, this was a pleasant day. Wish we had more time to explore some of the small towns (20 mins in 3 of the 4 we visited). If you want an easy way to see Cinque Terre, than this is a great option. If you would like to take your time and explore.. Than this one is not for you.

Thoroughly enjoyed our day trip to Cinque Terre villages. We stopped at four of the five villages for different lengths of time - the longest was at Monterosso where we had lunch. Unfortunately we did not get to do the boat trip as although it was a sunny day, it was too windy for the boats. Our guide was well informed and kept an eye on our group, ensuring a hassle free day.

If you like a very crowded bus, and almost no time to go and see anything, then this is the tour for you. There is no organization. They use the cheapest possible transports we were herded on buses, trains and cheap boat, no real guidance, not enough time to visit any of the islands. And for some reason, the bus, if you were lucky to get faster to a better seat, they tell everyone to come back and seat again in those better seats with no regard that maybe let people change seats. Also, they put people of different languages on the same bus, so you couldn't really hear your language since interpreter for other language was talking loudly and making it hard to hear. Overall disappointing, not worth it. It would have been so much better to go by yourself and take your time and actually see an island. is 30-40 minutes really enough to see an island if 20 or more minutes are needed to get back to meeting point??

We had an amazing time on this tour! Our tour guides were very knowledgeable and did a great job keeping everyone together on the bus, trains and ferry! It's an early start but well worth it!
