The classic cinque terre tour

3 nights/4 days, from €2190,00 p.p., all skill levels, moderate walking involved, 5 persons max., all year round, workshop itinerary.

– Digital Camera (preferably a DSLR or mirrorless camera, APS-C, micro 4/3 and FF will be more than fine); – An ultrawide lens (e.g. Nikon 14-24mm, Canon 16-35mm, Tamron 15-30mm, Tokina 16-28mm etc); we recommend a lens with a wide maximum aperture (like f/2.8) in case we might do some night photography.

– A standard zoom lens (e.g. Nikon/Canon/Sigma 24-70mm or 24-105mm);

– A telephoto zoom lens (e.g. various Nikon/Canon/Tamron/Sigma 70-200mm);

– A super telephoto zoom lens (e.g. Sigma/Tamron 150-600mm); this lens is not necessary but we recommend it anyway since it allows to capture the far away details of the landscapes;

– A sturdy tripod that permits to do some long exposure photos, specially at twilight;

– A set of ND filters; these are the only filters we feel to recommend, since they become useful when you need to stretch the exposure time a little bit during some difficult light conditions;

– A camera remote to avoid blurry shots.

• lynnee46 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Hiking Cinque Terre and Palmaria Island I spent 5 nights in La Spezia as a base for hiking in Cinque Terre and the surrounding areas. My apartment was 3 minutes walk from the train station so an ideal base and much cheaper and less busy than Cinque Terre. I hiked from Monterossa to Corniglia one day and Riomaggiore to Corniglia another day. The hikes can be a bit tough if you are not used to walking up hill, especially the Riomaggior to Manarola as it is a steep uphill slog, and then straight down the other side. This hike only takes about an hour but it is quite steep, so a good level of fitness is required. I also took a bus to Portovenere and then a ferry to Palmaria Island. The hike around here is around 6km and the views are amazing. It is much quieter than the Cinque Terre paths and I would highly recommend this hike. Read more Written April 28, 2024

Visiter les Cinque Terre en Italie, les incontournables

• 🤩 Les activités
• 🤓 Organiser son voyage

Table des matières

Découvrir les Cinq Terre, ce fut pour nous une expérience magique sous le soleil, bercée par la Dolce Vita et la bonne cuisine Italienne. Dans cet article, découvrez tous nos conseils pour organiser votre séjour aux Cinque Terre en Italie et la réponse à toutes vos questions : comment se rendre aux Cinque Terre, comment se déplacer entre petits les villages, nos hotels préférés des Cinque Terre, nos bonnes adresses pour bien manger aux Cinque Terre, quel budget prévoir… et surtout où manger les meilleures glaces !

Les Cinque Terre, les villages incontournables

Lors de votre voyage aux Cinque Terre, vous aurez l’occasion de découvrir 5 villages incontournables. Que ce soit Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza ou Monterosso Al Mare nous avons rédigé des guides complets pour vous aider à les visiter au mieux.

Riomaggiore –  Manarola   –  Corniglia –  Vernazza – Monterosso Al Mare

Quand partir pour visiter les Cinque Terre ?

Nous sommes parti à la découverte des Cinque Terre pendant la dernière quinzaine d’août. Il faisait encore assez chaud, dans les 30 degrés. Nous nous étions préparés à rencontrer beaucoup de touristes à cette période là, et malgré cela nous avons décidé de partir en Août, car nous avions posés nos vacances à ce moment la… Constat : il y avait un monde fou ! Dans certains villages, Vernazza notamment nous étions surpris du monde dans les petites rues, des énormes bateaux touristiques qui se déversaient dans les villages…

Notre plus grand conseil : vous pouvez aisément visiter les Cinque Terre en 2 jours, c’est tout à fait suffisant. Prévoyez un week-end hors saison (en septembre, octobre, mai ou juin) pour profiter de conditions optimales ! Vous aurez un climat ensoleillé et des villages beaucoup plus calmes.

Comment se déplacer entre les villages des Cinque Terre ?

Surtout, oubliez l’idée d’utiliser votre voiture aux Cinque Terre, vous ne pourrez pas circuler ni vous garer !  Le train est une solution très pratique et peu couteuse pour rejoindre les Cinq Terre et pour circuler entre chaque village. Les trains sont en très bon état, rapides et passent très fréquemment, toutes les 20 minutes environ.

Les tarifs de la Cinque Terre Card vous donnent accès en illimité aux trains, de Levanto, en passant par les 5 villages des Cinque Terre, jusqu’à La Spezia. Vous aurez aussi accès aux randonnées des Cinque Terre avec cette carte !

Prix de la Carte de trains Cinque Terre

• Pour les adultes : Cinque Terre Card Treno – 1 jour : 16 € 2 jours :  29 € 3 jours :  41 €
• Pour les enfants de plus de 4 ans : Cinque Terre Card Treno – 1 jour : 10 €
• Autre option, prenez la carte famille pour 2 adultes et 2 enfants : Cinque Terre Card Treno – 1 jour Famille : 42 €
• Bon à savoir : les enfants de moins de 4 ans n’ont pas besoin de ticket !

Quel budget pour découvrir les Cinque Terre ?

L’Italie et particulièrement les Cinque Terre ne sont pas réputées pour être une destination bon marché… En ce qui nous concerne, nous avons trouvé que l’hébergement, les loisirs et les restaurants étaient assez couteux pour des prestations plutôt moyennes. Malgré cela, le vrai avantage aux Cinque Terre, est qu’il existe beaucoup de solutions en fonction de votre budget.

Nos conseils pour limiter le budget de votre voyage

• Dormez plutôt dans une des villes proches des Cinq Terre, Levanto ou La Spezia puis rejoignez le premier village en train.
• Privilégiez les randonnées : vous n’aurez à payer que 2,5 € pour emprunter les sentiers des Cinq Terre.
• Profitez des foccacias et spécialités locales à emporter pour déjeuner en plein air avec des vues superbes.
• Pour un petit plus : choisissez une activité relativement accessible, telle que louer un kayak pour profiter des eaux claires et avoir un panorama parfait face au village !

Dernier conseil budget : ayez toujours du cash sur vous ! Les italiens ont peu souvent de machines à CB et surtout dans les petits commerces des Cinq Terre, vous risquez d’être coincés sans monnaie. En revanche rassurez vous, il y a de nombreux distributeurs à cash dans les Gares des Cinque Terre et même dans les rues des villages.

Visiter les Cinque Terre, où dormir ?

Aux Cinque Terre, deux options s’offrent à vous. Dormir directement dans un hôtel au cœur de chaque village ou bien dormir dans une des villes à proximité, à La Spezia ou encore Levanto.  Pour votre location de vacances, tout dépend où vous souhaitez loger ! Au coeur des petits villages où bien vous préférez un peu de calme et prendre le train pour rejoindre les maisons colorées des cinq terres !

Dormir au cœur des Cinq Terre, les avantages

• Vous êtes directement sur place pour vous imprégner de l’atmosphère des Cinq Terre. Une façon d’être au plus près des ruelles étroites et colorées ainsi que des sentiers de randonnée pédestres.  Vous nous direz quel petit village vous avez préféré !
• Les levers et couchers de soleil sont exceptionnels dans ces petits villages !
• Vous évitez les coûts de transports pour rejoindre les Cinque Terre, vous n’avez qu’a emprunter une navette entre chaque village
• Vous aurez l’impression de vivre comme un local !

Dormir à La Spezia ou Levanto, les avantages

• Trouvez des logements et locations canons et beaucoup plus abordables !
• Accédez à Riomaggiore, le premier village des Cinq Terre, en seulement 10 minutes de La Spezia !
• Profitez de calme en fin de journée, loin de l’agitation touristique des Cinq Terre.
• Vous pourrez plus facilement vous baigner, notamment à Levanto où il y a de vraies plages.
• Les frais sur place seront beaucoup moins chers, en particulier pour les restaurants ou de courses en supermarchés. De quoi vous faire plaisir avec les spécialités Italiana

Pour notre part, nous avons choisi de dormir à La Spezia, principalement car les logements étaient beaucoup plus abordables. Aussi, La Spezia rend l’accès aux Cinq Terre très rapide et facile via la Gare Routière. Une fois que vous avez acheté votre Pass 2 ou 3 jours, comptez seulement 10 minutes pour accéder au premier village ! Juste le temps de s’assoir.

La ville de La Spezia nous a surpris par sa taille, il y a tout de même 220 000 habitants ! Vous y trouverez de très nombreux commerces et restaurants. Nous avons trouvé ça agréable d’avoir tout le confort d’une grande ville là où nous dormions. Le port de La Spezia est immense et offre une promenade agréable pour admirer les immenses bateaux qui y séjournent. Le centre historique est très agréable et vivant. Seul inconvénient à La Spezia, il n’y a pas de plage. Nous avons eu très chaud fin Août et nous aurions apprécié une petite baignade le soir !

Nous avons découvert Levanto un après-midi et nous avons été très agréablement surpris ! La ville est beaucoup plus petite que La Spezia (5 000 habitants seulement) et est un petit peu plus loin des Cinq Terre. Comptez 30 minutes pour aller de Levanto à Monterosso Al Mare, le village des Cinq Terre le plus proche. L’avantage considérable que vous avez à dormir à Levanto pour votre séjour aux Cinque Terre, c’est qu’il y a une immense plage !   La plage est super propre (un luxe en Italie). Vous y trouverez de nombreux petits bars et restaurants à même la plage, l’idéal pour un déjeuner abordable face à la mer.

Dernier avantage de séjourner à Levanto et d’y prendre vos locations : la ville et ses habitants se revendiquent dans la tendance « Slow Life », un retour vers la nature, la terre et le calme. Une philosophie de qualité de vie qui se ressent même en y passant quelques nuits.

Visiter les Cinq Terre, les activités

Les randonnées entre les villages des cinq terre.

Les randonnées entre les villages des Cinq Terre valent le coup d’être vécue. Vous aurez des points de vues incroyables sur les villages, et c’est d’en haut ou de loin qu’ils sont finalement les plus beaux ! Il faut tout de même être en bonne condition physique et ne pas avoir trop peur du vide, car les sentiers sont en franc de collines et pas tous sécurisés… Pour les moins sportifs d’entre vous (nous plaidons coupable également), choisissez de ne faire qu’une seule randonnée par jour. Comptez environ deux heures pour chaque randonnée.

La Randonnée entre Vernazza et Monterosso Al Mare

Ecoutez bien attentivement ce conseil : faites absolument cette randonnée en partant de Vernazza en allant vers Monterosso Al Mare !! Nous avons fait l’inverse, en partant innocemment de Monterosso Al Mare, motivés comme jamais.  Grosse erreur : le sentier ne cesse de monter, entre des marches bancales et des montées de l’enfer ! haha

On aura bien ri mais on a un peu souffert. Les randonneurs que nous croisions dans l’autre sens étaient tous sereins et nous ont fait remarquer que l’autre sens, en descente, était bien plus agréable …

Les falaises de ce parc naturel longent les vignobles et vignes la région, ce qui rendent cette randonnée panoramique exceptionnelle. Nous ne pouvons que vous conseiller de faire les sentiers pédestres de la région, ils sont superbes. Ils relient tous les villages perchés et pittoresques des cinq terres et ne sont fermés qu’en cas d’intempéries. De jolies excursions peu couteuses !

A la fin de cette randonnée dans le parc national des cinque terre, nous sommes arrivés au petit port de Vernazza. Un promontoire rocheux au dessus du bourg vous offre une vue fantastique, parfait pour finir cette excursion !

Cette région est un véritable sancturaire, où les villages sont classés au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO !

Vous croiserez sans doute un habitant des Cinq Terre, au milieu de la randonnée, qui vend des jus d’orange pressés sur place ! Il vend ses petits jus depuis 20 ans sur cette randonnée, de quoi vous donner du peps. Prevoyez une pièce de 2€ pour un jus, et c’est reparti !

Voguez à bord d’un bateau pour visiter les Cinq Terre

Vous pouvez choisir l’option bateau pour circuler entre les villages, ce qui doit offrir une vue magique dans cette aire marine protégée. Nous n’étions pas trop tentés car les bateaux sont énormes et surchargés de touristes. Comptez entre 12 et 20€ l’aller retour entre la ville de départ (Porto Venere ou La Spezia) et le village d’arrivé. Ca doit être chouette pour admirer les ruelles étroites et les criques de cette riviera italienne !

Afin de voyager en toute sérénité, il est important de choisir une bonne assurance. Nous vous recommandons Heymondo qui propose une sélection d’assurances créées sur mesure avec un très bon rapport qualité-prix.

FAQ: Cinque Terre Boat Tours

In this section, I’ll be providing you with some super helpful information for your boat tours to Cinque Terre including how much the trips typically cost, whether it’s actually worth doing one, what to pack, the best time to take a boat tour in Italy, and more!

Is It Worth Doing a Boat Tour in Cinque Terre?

Taking a boat tour in Cinque Terre is unquestionably worth doing! It’s an exceptional experience that offers a unique perspective of the region’s stunning landscapes. Take it from someone who knows, the views from a boat are breathtaking and unlike anything you’ll see on land.

Plus, it’s a fantastic way to cool off during the hot summer months! From the sea, you can appreciate the vibrant colors of the hillside villages, the terraced vineyards, and the rugged coastline.

Additionally, boat tours often provide opportunities to see hidden caves and secluded beaches that are inaccessible by land. It’s an excellent choice for photography enthusiasts, nature lovers, or anyone looking to explore the region beyond the usual tourist trails.

What Should I Pack for a Boat Tour in Cinque Terre?

For a boat tour in Cinque Terre, it’s important to carry a few essentials to make your trip comfortable and enjoyable. Here’s a list of items you should consider:

• Sunscreen : The Italian sun is suuuper strong, especially when you’re out on the water thanks to the reflections. Protect your skin by packing waterproof sunscreen with a high SPF! I promise you will still get a tan.
• Hat and Sunglasses : Just a little extra protection from the sun!
• Comfortable Clothing : Opt for light, breathable fabrics. Don’t forget a swimsuit if your tour includes a swimming or snorkeling stop!
• Towel : If you plan to swim or simply want something to sit on. A lightweight, quick-drying towel is usually a good choice
• Camera : Possibly the most important item on this list, you will want to take photos!
• Waterproof Bag or Case : To protect your belongings from splashes or unexpected rain.
• Water and Snacks : Some tours might provide these, but it’s always safe to have your own, especially if you have specific dietary needs.
• Motion Sickness Medicine : If you’re prone to seasickness, consider bringing some over-the-counter medication as a precautionary measure.

Remember, each tour is different, so always check with your tour provider to see if there are any specific items they recommend or provide.

How Much Does a Private Boat Tour in Cinque Terre Cost?

The cost of a private boat tour in Cinque Terre can vary greatly depending on the length of the tour, the size of the boat, and the season, but on average, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $200.

Shorter tours are naturally less expensive, with many 2-hour options available for around $130. Full-day tours that include lunch and drinks, on the other hand, can cost up to $450. So, no they’re not necessarily a cheap activity to do in Cinque Terre, but it’s definitely worth the splurge for a special occasion!

Can You Visit Cinque Terre By Boat?

Absolutely, you can visit Cinque Terre by boat! In fact, it’s one of the most magnificent ways to experience the charm and beauty of these five seaside villages.

A boat tour allows you to take in panoramic views of the terraced vineyards, colorful homes perched on hillsides, and stunning cliffs, all from the tranquil setting of the sea. Many boat tours of Cinque Terre depart from nearby towns such as La Spezia, Portovenere, and Levanto.

When is the Best Time to Take a Boat Trip in Cinque Terre?

The best time to take a boat trip in Cinque Terre is typically during late spring to early fall, between May and October.

During these months, the weather is predominantly warm and sunny, making it ideal for being out on the water! That being said, early summer (May-June) and early fall (September-October) are particularly recommended if you want to avoid the peak tourist season in July and August.

How Do Tourists Travel Between the 5 Villages of Cinque Terre?

Tourists have several options to travel between the five villages of Cinque Terre ( Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza, and Monterosso ). The most convenient way is taking a train from La Spezia or Levanto , which frequently runs through all five towns.

The journey is quick, usually only taking a few minutes between each village. Alternatively, visitors can explore the famous Blue Path (Sentiero Azzurro) on foot and hike between the villages. This stunning trail offers unparalleled views of the sea and surrounding landscape. However, the difficulty varies between each path, so it’s not for everyone.

Finally, for a unique perspective, tourists can take a ferry between the villages (except Corniglia which is not on the coast), particularly enjoyable during the warmer months.

How Long is the Boat Ride from La Spezia to Cinque Terre?

The boat ride from La Spezia to Cinque Terre typically takes around 30 minutes to reach the first village, Riomaggiore. However, if you’re planning to visit all five villages by boat, you should allocate several hours to fully appreciate the scenic journey and the unique charm of each town.

Do bear in mind that boat schedules can vary based on the season and weather conditions. Always check the timetable in advance and make note of current weather conditions to better plan your day.

Can You Swim in the Sea in Cinque Terre?

You can swim in the sea in Cinque Terre! The region is renowned for its clear turquoise waters which are perfect for swimming, particularly during the warm summer months.

Each of the villages has its own beautiful swimming spots, from the sheltered bay at Monterosso to the rugged cliffs at Manarola.

• lynnee46 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Hiking Cinque Terre and Palmaria Island I spent 5 nights in La Spezia as a base for hiking in Cinque Terre and the surrounding areas. My apartment was 3 minutes walk from the train station so an ideal base and much cheaper and less busy than Cinque Terre. I hiked from Monterossa to Corniglia one day and Riomaggiore to Corniglia another day. The hikes can be a bit tough if you are not used to walking up hill, especially the Riomaggior to Manarola as it is a steep uphill slog, and then straight down the other side. This hike only takes about an hour but it is quite steep, so a good level of fitness is required. I also took a bus to Portovenere and then a ferry to Palmaria Island. The hike around here is around 6km and the views are amazing. It is much quieter than the Cinque Terre paths and I would highly recommend this hike. Read more Written 28 April 2024

We did the walking tour to the vineyard with no rush after a relaxing boat ride and when we reached the vineyard we couldn't believe we were admiring one of the best views of the Cinque terre.

Itineraries

Arrival in rome.

Meet and greet with our representative at the Rome Airport and transfer to your hotel. Welcome to Rome! The Eternal City. One of the world’s most romantic and charismatic cities. Something that cannot easily be forgotten. When you visit, take the time to absorb everything. Understand its dialect, master the heavy and disorganized car traffic, learn how to choose the best trattoria for tonnarelli carbonara. Then you are a true Roman. "Fully immerse yourself in its elegance, surrounded by an always present sound in the background - a chaotic symphony. It wouldn't be Rome without it. Rome for ever existed, and it will always be Rome" -- Antonio

EXPLORE ROME - CHOOSE YOUR EXCURSION

Breakfast at your hotel. We have many excursions for you to pick and choose according to your taste. The most requested is the Vatican: meet our local Vatican expert for a tour of the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica (skip-the-line tickets included). In the afternoon, explore Rome on your own: you can enjoy a walk through the small streets, watch locals interact at a coffee shop, or visit one of the hundreds of churches (you can find one at every corner!). All our private itineraries include a list of our favorite places to enjoy a nice, authentic Roman dinner.

ROME AT YOUR LEISURE - WHEN IN ROME...

Time to explore on your own or to take another of our suggested excursions (the Colosseo and Roman Forum, a food tour, a pizza making class,...). Or simply follow the suggestion of our Antonio and ... be a true Roman for a day!

FROM ROME TO POMPEII TO SORRENTO

After breakfast and check-out, meet our private driver at the hotel lobby and transfer to the train station. A high-speed train ride will bring you to Naples, where another driver from our team will be waiting for you. Transfer to your hotel in Sorrento, the western gate of the Amalfi coast. Stop on-route to the ancient ash city of Pompeii and tour the site with our professional local guide. An entertaining, learning opportunity that will be appreciated by all your travel mates, any age.

EXPLORE THE AMALFI COAST: AMALFI, POSITANO, RAVELLO

Enjoy a ride along the Amalfi Drive, one of the most spectacular coasts of Europe, also called “The Divine Coast” for the spectacular scenery it offers. The plunging cliffs and the craggy rocks eroded by the sea and the wind create stunning views along the entire coast. Stop for a view of Positano from above, with the majolica-tiled dome of its Cathedral and its houses clinging to the sides of the coast; drive through Praiano; have a glimpse at Furore’s fjord and at the tower of Conca de’ Marini and then stop in Amalfi. Saunter over its bustling center and admire St Andrew Cathedral's magnificent façade, while deciding which one of the many tantalizing shops and cafés you will enter next. After some time at leisure, head for Ravello, a peaceful village perched atop the cliffs overlooking Amalfi which inspired artists from all over the world, like Richard Wagner and Gore Vidal, to name but two.

THE ISLAND OF CAPRI

A day out exploring the gem of the Mediterranean Sea with its incredible landscapes sculpted by the waves and the wind. Meet your guide and board the fast jetfoil to Capri. Once at Marina Grande, follow your guide for a tour of the island by minibus. The drive, among gardens and Mediterranean scrub, takes you to Anacapri, a hamlet perched on the slopes of Mt Solaro. Your guide will be happy to provide you with suggestion on how to spend some free time before returning to your boat. But Capri would not be the same without a visit to the Blue Grotto, the absolute symbol of the island. So, weather permitting, get ready to board a rowing boat - and to quickly lean back when entering the unsuspected crevice in the cliff that leads into the incomparable blue of the grotto.

FROM SORRENTO TO FLORENCE. CRADLE OF THE RENAISSANCE

After breakfast and check out, meet your private driver at the hotel lobby and transfer to the train station. Board the high-speed train to Florence. About 3 hour ride. With less than 400,000 habitants, the city of Florence is located between the river Arno and the Appennini mountains. Florence is the capital of Tuscany and it is a must see for art and architecture lovers. We always refer to it as an "open-air" museum. There is a piece of art at every corner, as well as beautiful markets, leather shops, coffee shops and restaurants. Meet our expert local guide and spend 3 hours discovering and learning about this magnificent city, known as the cradle of the Renaissance. A visit to the famous Galleria dell'Accademia with the original statue of the David of Michelangelo is included.

BEAUTIES OF TUSCANY COUNTRYSIDE

Today, your local private driver will be happy to show you the best of the Tuscany countryside. The area situated between Florence, Siena and Arezzo is synonym with gorgeous landscape, lavish food and wine, all of which contribute to create the distinctive character of the region. Greve in Chianti is the gate to the region. It is a little village coiled around a medieval square. Once you arrive here, your driving escort will be delighted to give you all the directions you need to explore on your own this lovely place. Cured meat, extra virgin olive oil and cheese are the flagships of this region, and the pecorino cheese you can taste at the farm you will be stopping next is unrivaled. The farm was established in the Seventies, and their wine and olive oil became rapidly known as some of the best in the region. After an extensive visit of the premises, you will enjoy a selection of their cheese the Tuscan way, that is accompanied by home made honey and Tuscan bread, paired with three different wines. The tour will then continue to a "Badia", a typical Tuscan estate around its medieval fortified abbey where you will sample some of the best red wines of Italy.

CINQUE TERRE: FIVE FISHING VILLAGES ON THE SEA-CLIFFS OF LIGURIA

The Cinque Terre is a beautiful stretch of rugged coast and encompasses five ("cinque") hamlets embedded between the ligurian mountains and the sea. The Cinque Terre was inaccessible from the land for centuries, isolated by steep mountains on one side and by the sea itself on the other. Thanks to all this it became a National Park and then a World Heritage Site. Due to the conformation of the area and to the need to preserve it, motor vehicles are not allowed in the center of the villages; once you leave yours in Manarola, your driving escort will accompany you by train, the most effective way to move around, giving you basic information and directions on how to explore the tiny, colorful alleys and the little fishermen harbors. If the landscape of the Cinqueterre is gorgeous like few others in Italy, the same can be said for local food, as you will realize while enjoying a light lunch in one of Monterosso’s restaurants. Once your time in Monterosso is over, meet your driver and get back to Manarola, where you will board your vehicle and head for Florence.

FROM FLORENCE TO VENICE

Time to enjoy a morning at leisure in Florence. Explore the local leather market or the specialty food market where you will find many local cheeses, salame, truffles and more. In the afternoon transfer to the train station and board the high-speed train to Venice. Upon arrival, our assistant will escort you outside the station to the right dock where your private boat is waiting to transfer you to your hotel. A great way to be introduced to Venice laguna and unique network of canals and small bridges.

VENICE, PURE ROMANCE

We can design your time in Venice according to your taste. We recommend an introduction walking tour with our local guide in the morning and the afternoon at leisure. You can take a boat trip to the islands of Murano and Burano, or immerse in the city's labyrinth of narrow streets and find the hidden bàcari – tiny neighbourhood bars that serve up some of the city's tastiest food bites (cicchetti) and wine. In your final itinerary you will find our suggestions (to get away from the millions of tourists!) as well as our best restaurants where to spend the last evening in Venice.

Tuscany & the Cinque Terre Cultural Walking Tour

• Dates & Prices

Image Gallery

Drinking in the sunset and the Chianti at our friend Marco's farmhouse, we decided that a Tuscany walking tour couldn't be improved upon. Since he's a staunch Tuscan, he surprised us by saying, "Then you've never been to the Cinque Terre." So we went. They're not far, these five once almost unreachable villages that grow out of rock along the Ligurian Sea. For centuries, a connecting footpath was their lifeline, but for us it's the scenic route into a remote and vibrant coastal culture. Beforehand, we spend three nights in the parts of Tuscany we love best…complete with hilltowns that rise out of silver-green olive groves, homemade prosciutto and potato ravioli and the sunny vineyards of Chianti. Throughout, we'll explore the art history, and savor the food and wine. But in the end, will you prefer walking tours in Tuscany or the Cinque Terre? The good news is that because this trip gives you both, you don't have to decide.

• Gather in Florence, where a short journey into Chianti leads to a private visit and tasting at one of the famed wineries, followed by a scenic walk to our hotel, a historic villa that dates to the 16th century and is owned by a count and countess.

• Walk past silvery olive groves to visit a shepherd who shows how he makes sheep's-milk cheeses…and a chance to sample some of the traditional specialties.

• Follow a footpath in the lovely Chianti hills, to a vineyard walk that ends with a home-cooked lunch and wine-tasting in the private cellars of Castello della Paneretta.

• Spot San Gimignano, fortified with more than a dozen medieval towers, shimmering in the near distance as we approach along a rural footpath.

• Journey along the Apuane mountains to Santa Margherita, where our hotel overlooks the Ligurian Sea.

• Walk to the colorful, isolated villages of the Cinque Terre — Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Rio Maggiore — with time out for shopping or a picnic. (Or skip the walking, and take a little coastal train that runs between the villages.)

• Explore the tiny monastery of San Fruttuoso reachable only by foot or boat after visiting iconic Portofino.

• Cap off an evening in Florence with a memorable dinner at our favorite trattoria, where in one meal we enjoy the whole tapestry of Tuscan cuisine.

• Skip the lines to see Michelangelo's David as part of a guided walk in Florence that provides an insider's view of the famed Renaissance city.

• Wandering the ancient streets to see and learn about Brunelleschi's incredible dome, the Ponte Vecchio, and Piazza della Signoria.

• Graze through San Lorenzo, the Florentine's main market, with its pyramids of produce, olives, breads, meats and more.
