Detailed itinerary

Discover breathtaking views from our traditional Ligurian gozzo. This is a must-do 2 hr tour while in the Cinque Terre!
You'll get an up-close view of Riomaggiore as we depart its port. We'll then cruise towards the iconic via dell'Amore to arrive to Manarola. After answering a few questions here, we'll move along the coastline to see stunning cliffs and hidden sea caves before arriving to the 3rd village, Corniglia, the smallest of the Cinque Terre, sitting on top of a cliff (stunning!). We'll then visit Vernazza and its photogenic harbor - just like in the postcards.
Before returning back to Riomaggiore, we'll stop for an unforgettable swim in front of Vernazza (at secluded Guvano Beach) with a front row sunset view.
Sip on Cinque Terre white wine and enjoy the locally made focaccia on board. Laugh 'til your belly hurts with this super fun group. If you're lucky enough, spot a few dolphins...
This is a different view of the Cinque Terre : a front row seat, away from the crowds!
