Traveler reviews
Mediocre Experience
The car ride was quite uncomfortable, which made the trip less enjoyable. The tour guide was not really a guide—more of a driver who simply took us there and back. We hardly learned anything about the history or culture of the area, which was disappointing. As for Cinque Terre itself, it was just okay and didn’t quite live up to the expectations. Overall, not a very memorable experience.
Terrible experience to waste many hours on the road, the Park was closed when we got there
Attached please find the weather warning issued by the Cinque Terre National Park on the day before my scheduled trip. Also attached is the communication message I had with the local Transportation Service operator. The tour service provider informed us about weather warning before the day of schedule trip. In my reply I requested them to check whether we can go the next day. In the early morning of the scheduled trip day I ask them to confirm again. They never answer my text message. Should the operator check with the national Park before our departure for the trip they would know the park was closed. Then my family won't waste many hours on the road, and the trip should be either canceled or re-plan for different attractions. The worse is that Viator refuse to refund at all without giving reason and just said they cannot refund.
Great family outing in Pisa and Cinque Terre
Ilaria was a fabulous guide. Such a beautiful place. We had a great lunch with all the local delicacies of sardines (which were so yummy!) charcuterie and pesto pasta with potatoes and green beans. Lovely day, but it was a bit hot!
Long Day Full of Fun
This was a great tour. Our tour guide, Marijana, did a fantastic job and was very knowledgeable about the areas. We took a private van to Pisa early in the morning before the crowds which was totally worth it. We then took the van to Cinque Terre. It's a long ride so if you get car sick, I highly recommend taking some non-drowsy dramamine. We visited 4 out of the 5 villages starting with Monterosso. You get a choice of taking either the train or ferry to each little town. The villages are beautiful and full of amazing views and cool little shops and bistros. If you like old churches and forts, you will really enjoy these as well. This is a full day tour. When they say 13 hours, they mean it. You will be walking up and down a lot of hills. Also, if the weather is sunny, you should take sunscreen because you will be outside for most of the day. We were exhausted by the end of the day but were so happy to have seen everything and learned so much about the area. Also, I spotted a minor celebrity while there so who knows who you will run into.
