Florence
Your private, English speaking driver will pick you up directly from your accommodation in Florence in a luxury Mercedes Benz vehicle, and you will be on your way! Enjoy the comfort of private transportation as you admire lovely views of the Tuscan countryside heading westward towards the gem of Liguria: Cinque Terre! The drive will take about two hours.

Riomaggiore
On this private tour, you can spend your day as you prefer! Anytime you need your driver, he is only one call away and happy to help with any recommendations catered to your personal interests. However, with limited time, this is how we recommend you spend your day:
First, your driver will bring you to the breathtaking town of Riomaggiore. The brightly colored homes suspend unbelievably upon the striking cliffs. As you stroll through the alleyways towards the natural port, the smell of fresh focaccia and pesto will overwhelm your senses, and you will undoubtedly begin falling in love with Cinque Terre! Spend as much time as you would like admiring the panoramic views over the cobalt-colored water and taking plenty of memorable photos.

Vernazza
Whenever you are ready, your private driver will take you to Vernazza, a tiny fishing village. Make your way through the ancient streets towards the small harbour. You will see the local fishermen returning in small, blue boats from their morning fishing trip. This one of the most photographed spots in Cinque Terre, as it is truly a place frozen in time. The views of the brightly colored homes, joyous children in the sea, and emerald water are enchanting! Dip your toes into the water as you relax in the harmonious atmosphere.

Monterosso al Mare
Next, your driver will bring you to Monterosso, famous for its wide, white sand beach with crystal clear water. Indulge a delicious lunch of seafood or pasta and pesto in one of the many family-owned restaurants, or grab a takeaway snack to eat on the sunny beach. Then, enjoy simply relaxing under the Italian rays and swimming in the sea! Then, stroll along the cobblestone paths and choose some memorable souvenirs before your driver meets you to head back to Florence.
