Be careful which train ticket you get

This is just for the out and return coach to Spezi if you don’t take the escorted option. Don’t go to the place they send you with a google option for the pick up it is in fact below the clock tower over at the bus station. The villages are very pretty like Amalfi but smaller . Be careful you are told you can get a train ticket to the last station and jump on and off this is incorrect you need to get a day pass from the ticket office as this option is not on ticket machine. If you don’t you have to pay for each section at each stop you get off and on at or get 50 euro fine as we did as we were told just get return to Montebosso by the guide which was incorrect.

The tour was very well...

The tour was very well organised. The guides who looked after us were excellent. Always on hand, answered all our questions. Gave us many heads up on what was coming and what to do. They had so much local knowledge. The villages really are a must see item in the area. We would highly recommend this tour.

Fab day

The tour was well organised and Cecilia managed the day events well, once again friendly (she guided a tour I had been on earlier in the week) and helpful. The instructions were clear and easy to follow and it was nice to visit such beautiful parts of Italy. I was surprised at how much time we got in each village.

Don’t miss the Cinque terra- fabulous

Great way to simplify visiting cinque terra - at the station ready to hop on to your chosen destination. We chose to go our own way rather than with the tour guide. Five minutes between each place was fabulous. One day is not enough to visit all 5. Research and see which three you fancy is my advice.
