The Journey
Monterosso al Mare
Monterosso al Mare, the largest and northernmost of the Cinque Terre, beckons with its inviting beaches and vibrant atmosphere. Divided into two distinct areas—the historic center and the modern Fegina—connected by a convenient pedestrian tunnel, Monterosso offers a unique blend of old-world charm and contemporary amenities. As the only village with extensive beach services, it's a haven for sun-seekers and water sports enthusiasts. Explore the medieval Torre Aurora, indulge in the region's famed seafood, and soak up the lively ambiance that makes Monterosso a must-visit destination.
Vernazza
Vernazza, arguably the most captivating of the Cinque Terre villages, enchants visitors with its colorful harbor and timeless beauty. Dominated by the iconic Church of Santa Margherita d'Antiochia, perched right on the water's edge, and guarded by the imposing Torre del Belforte, Vernazza exudes a sense of history and tranquility. Stroll along the vibrant waterfront, savor fresh seafood at a harborside trattoria, and lose yourself in the maze of narrow streets that wind their way through this unforgettable village.
Corniglia
Perched high atop a dramatic cliff, 100 meters above the sea, Corniglia offers unparalleled panoramic views of the Cinque Terre coastline. As the only village without direct sea access, Corniglia rewards visitors with a sense of serenity and seclusion. Ascend the famous Lardarina staircase, indulge in the local Sciacchetrà wine, and soak in the breathtaking vistas from the panoramic terrace, offering glimpses of Manarola and Riomaggiore to the south, and Vernazza and Monterosso to the north. Experience the authentic charm of this hidden gem, far from the bustling crowds.
Manarola
Manarola, a jewel nestled along the Ligurian coast, captivates with its cascading colorful houses and rich winemaking tradition. Renowned for producing the exclusive Sciacchetrà dessert wine, Manarola offers a taste of Ligurian terroir unlike any other. Explore the charming harbor, wander through the vineyards that cling to the steep slopes, and soak in the romantic atmosphere that permeates this enchanting village. As the starting (or ending) point of the famed Via dell'Amore, Manarola is a must-see for lovers of natural beauty and authentic Italian culture.
Riomaggiore
Riomaggiore, the southernmost of the Cinque Terre villages, welcomes visitors with its vibrant, vertically stacked houses and breathtaking coastal scenery. Renowned for its excellent diving spots within the protected marine area, Riomaggiore offers a unique blend of adventure and tranquility. Explore the historic Castello di Riomaggiore, wander through the narrow, winding streets, and discover the starting point of the legendary Via dell'Amore, the romantic pathway leading to Manarola. Immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of this captivating village, where history, nature, and culture converge to create an unforgettable experience.
