# Day/Sunset tour in Cinque Terre on board a typical Ligurian gozzo boat

**Guidekin's take:** A traditional Ligurian gozzo rather than a modern cruiser, booked for a morning run or the sunset slot, with focaccia and local wine poured as the aperitivo. Fuel, insurance and snorkel gear are included and a private option exists, but the boat is not advised if you get seasick. 5 from 38 reviews at €111 per person for 3h.

## Overview

Come and discover the colorful villages of the Cinque Terre on this journey through sea, culture and traditions! Whether you want to spend a quiet day on the boat away from the stress of the mainland, or you want to admire the beauty of these villages in the magical light of the sunset, you just have to board, relax, and enjoy that sense of freedom that only the sea can give!
And what better way to explore the Ligurian Riviera than on board my “Blue Taurus”, a traditional Ligurian gozzo, symbol of the seafaring in these waters and of the “Italian Dolcevita”; with its refined and elegant line it is the perfect boat to explore the ravines and coves of this wild coast with lush and lush nature, where among natural waterfalls and hidden caves you can dive into its crystal clear waters full of fish. We will leave Monterosso for these picturesque villages, I will tell you about local customs and traditions, and all accompanied by music and good wine.
