Traveler reviews
Overall excellent experience!
Great experience if you want to see five beautiful cities surrounding the city of Florence. Excellent food and the tour guides (Alessandro) was very informative and highly skilled at what he does.
Stunning Landscape.
A brilliant day from start to finish...our guide was Alessandro and he was great...highly professional and a very likeable person. Cinque Terre is a stunning part of Italy and this tour brought out the best of it...do not hesitate to take it. Grazie Alessandro.
Amazing Tour with Joe!
This tour is a worthwhile experience. We were able to see multi villages in Cinque Terre, travel by ferry, and see Pisa all in the same day. The time spent in each village is actually the ideal amount of time for each place. Our guide Joe, did an amazing job. She made the trip enjoyable. She was very knowledgeable and provided great information about the history of the places and things we saw. She gave great suggestions on things to see and places to eat. Joe was very personable and a fun person to be around. She did an outstanding job and we would happily choose a tour with her again. Be prepared for a long day and be sure to try the lemonade!
Girardo and Ado were...
Girardo and Ado were truly AMAZING and made our Cinque Terre tour unforgettable! They were always smiling, energetic, and genuinely focused on making sure everyone was having a great time. They went above and beyond every step of the way — running around in the heat to make sure we caught the right train, hiking in the sun with us, warning us about pickpockets, and constantly making sure everyone was safe, comfortable, and enjoying themselves. And they did it all with a smile! They also gave us incredible history throughout the day, not only about Cinque Terre but during our drives through Tuscany. Their knowledge made the experience so much more meaningful. What stood out most was that they were more than just tour guides — they were genuinely great people who cared about making sure we got the most out of our vacation. My husband and I absolutely LOVED this tour. It was extremely well organized, we saw all the beautiful, picturesque spots, and everything was a 10/10 from start to finish. Girardo and Ado are phenomenal guides, and we couldn’t recommend them more! 🇮🇹❤️
Great tour guides
Wonderful tour to see the sights of Cinque Terre, with excellent tour guides Alessandro and Angela. They were both well informed, kind and funny. It was really handy to have the tour organised so that we didn't have to think about the coordination of travel from Florence. Alessandro was super entertaining and could be a comedian. Angela was super informative, kind and organised. Cinque terre was beautiful and we're glad we got to see the 5 villages.
