From $120
Cinque Terre Two-Village Visit

Visit two villages within Cinque Terre National Park on a full day of Italian discovery.

Relax on a scenic coach drive from the port to Cinque Terre, the UNESCO World Heritage Site that comprises five picturesque, coastline villages west of La Spezia. First, you'll arrive in a seaside village of criss-crossed hidden lanes, small squares, and eclectic boutiques. Then, you'll continue to Riomaggiore to wander its historic city center, the beach, and the pier before having time to explore a bit on your own.
