Full description

An authentic earthly paradise just around the corner. A place suspended in time, 5 villages hanging between sea and land, one of the most amazing and enchanting landscapes in the world, celebrated by such Romantic poets as Lord Byron and Shelley!

Your personal driver will pick you up at daybreak at your accommodation in Florence. The drive itself is worth the effort of the early departure: comfortably sitted on our luxury car, you will admire the beautiful Tuscan countryside and the breath taking Carrara marble quarries. 

Once in Liguria, you will be safely driven along the coast through the hillsides of Cinque Terre National Park to arrive directly at Riomaggiore, the 1st of the 5 villages. The driver will be at your disposal for the whole day, and, after some free time in Riomaggiore, he will take you to Vernazza and Monterosso and let you explore these colorful, tiny villages in absolute freedom. Enjoy the fresh sea air and stunning views over the bays and gulfs, stroll through the narrow cobble alleways of the tiny harbors, admire the quaint pastel coloured houses of the fishing villages and plunge finally into the crystalline sea surrounding the area. Visit in absolute freedom Riomaggiore, Vernazza and Monterosso and meet again your driver at the end of the day to be taken safely and comfortably back to your accomodation in Florence full of happy memories.

Itinerary

The first village of the coastline, dating back to the early thirteenth century, is famous for its historic character and local wine. You can admire the houses leaning one against the other and stroll along the narrow cobble alleyways and sheltered paths.

A seaside town surrounding a small natural port. As well as comfortable clothes and shoes, we recommend you bring your swimwear!

An ancient fishing village considered “The Pearl of the Cinque Terre”, where you will be awed by its enchanting beaches and the lush vegetation encircling the little town.
