A little slice of paradise, the Cinque Terre's 5 villages possess beauty that must be seen to be believed. Marvel at the small apartment blocks, coloured in pastel shades of blue, green, and orange, clinging to the sides of the rugged cliffs bordering the serene waters of the Ligurian Sea.

Upon arrival at the Italian Riviera, get ready to experience villages that are refreshingly untouched by modern life. With few roads into the villages, the best way to access them is by the cliff-side walkways that link them together. These walkways offer breathtaking views of the houses clustered below.

Start your visit from Manarola, where you will be free to explore on your own before taking the local train to Monterosso al Mare. Hop aboard a boat in Monterosso al Mare and cruise along the coastline, admiring the stunning views of the Cinque Terre's 5 villages from the sea.
