The guide will customize the itinerary and show you the best viewpoints in each town. The tour starts at the port or train station in La Spezia, where you board a train for a short ride to Riomaggiore, the first stop. You spend about an hour here exploring the town with your guide. Next, you continue to Manarola for another hour-long visit. Afterward, you travel to Vernazza, where you have around two hours to explore and may choose to have lunch at a local restaurant (not included). The final town on the itinerary is Monterosso, where you also spend about two hours. Depending on your schedule, especially if arriving by cruise, it may not be possible to visit all towns fully. At the end of the day, your guide takes you back by train to La Spezia Centrale, from where you return to the cruise port or your hotel on foot or by taxi (taxi not included). The boat transfers operate only from March 30 to October 31 and may be replaced by train rides due to weather conditions without any price adjustment.
