This was a great tour to see the beautiful Cinque Terre region! Pamela was great at maneuvering us through crowded streets and train stations. She had a lot of excellent information and gave recommendations. Some tips for anyone coming from a cruise ship. Make sure you request an early tender, especially if it’s Royal. They have a really sloppy process for early tenders and we didn’t know how long the line would be to leave. It was easy to take a taxi from the cruise port to the train station but I felt so bad for making our group wait because we were stuck in a huge line to get off the ship. Word to the wise: book a much earlier tender than you think you need and just hang out in La Spezia until you need to meet your group! Otherwise, I highly recommend this tour and would take this again!
Tour was fantastic and guide was great! Highly recommend, worth it to see the villages- the scenery was magnificent and it was a wonderful experience.
A nice day. Guide did well. Very helpful and ensured we knew where and when to be/go and that we were all present.
Excellent tour guide - very organized as she guided us through the trains and villages. Leisurely pace with lots of free time. Would highly recommend.
Amazing guide, would recommend, great communication
Lisa, our tour guide, was great. I wasn't expecting to have to jump on and off very crowded trains. I was expecting more of a shuttle or something for just us. Lisa was very accommodating for my mother, who uses a walker. I couldn't always keep up with Lisa, after taking care of my mom, so I never got to try any Limoncino. ;(. But overall, beautiful cities in La Spezia
There is alot of walking involved in this tour so be aware of that. Other than that its so beautiful and Lisa our guide was organized and knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour.
Very good tour for the Cinque Terre. Lisa was very helpful and very knowledgeable. visit 3 towns out of five because we have to get back on the cruise ship.
Your guide meets you at terminal we got Simona I will say she was very good at her job we found her enlightening with a bubbly Italian personality- however from the terminal it is a 25 minute walk to the train station - don’t know why they didn’t provide transportation- this tour involves a lot of walking and step climbing so if you have any physical issues book another excursion. In advertisement they list moderate stress level it’s more than that . We and another couple had to cut the tour short due to bad knees and back issues but Simona was very gracious helping us back to train station and giving us directions where to get off and to get a taxi back to cruise terminal We stopped at 3 of the 5 towns in Cinque Terre this your would be better to cut it down to 1 or 2
Excellent excursion. Simona was entertaining and informative. Would definitely recommend! 👍👍👍👍👍
