Additional Information & Description
Cinque Terre from Florence
Cinque Terre: Day Tour from Florence takes you from the city centre to the coastal villages of Levanto, Monterosso, Vernazza, Manarola and Riomaggiore. The route brings together colourful settlements between sea and land and the UNESCO-listed landscape of the Cinque Terre. Allow a full day: the excursion lasts approximately 13 hours, making this a substantial outing rather than a short trip from Florence.
Moving along the coast
The escorted itinerary uses trains to move from village to village, with an expert multilingual escort accompanying the group throughout the day. Guide languages are English, Italian and Spanish. Travelling between the villages lets you see several places within one day without having to organise the entire route yourself.
A return journey by motor boat along the Cinque Terre coast gives you a different viewpoint, looking back at the villages from the sea. Boat tickets depend on the option you book, so select the ferry-inclusive option if this part of the journey matters to you.
Free time in the villages
The day includes free time at the seaside, alongside the escorted travel. You can use it to explore the colourful villages or pause for something to eat. The suggested local tastes include pasta al pesto, olives and focaccia; wine tasting is another choice during your independent time.
If you would rather explore the villages on your own, a transfer-only ticket from Florence is also available. That is the alternative to the escorted village-to-village itinerary, allowing you to choose independent exploration instead of following the group through the day.
Ticket contents and exclusions
The bus-tour option includes transport by bus with a multilingual escort and Wi-Fi aboard the bus. Hotel pickup and drop-off are excluded, so you need to make your own way to the departure point rather than wait for collection at your accommodation.
Departure and ticket access
The starting point is Santa Maria Novella Train Station in Florence. Arrive 20 minutes before departure; factor that check-in time into your journey to the station, as well as the excursion’s full-day duration.
Tickets are delivered instantly and smartphone tickets are accepted. You can therefore keep your ticket on your phone for presentation rather than arranging a printed copy.
