# Private Tour to Cinque Terre from Florence

**Guidekin's take:** A private minivan day to Manarola, Vernazza and Corniglia with a tour escort and hotel pickup in Florence, moving between the villages by boat in season and by train from mid October to the end of March. Priced per group at €822 per group/vehicle for 10h–11h; boat and train tickets, food and drinks are paid on the spot. Rated 4.94 by 422 travellers.

In our comparison: #10 of 39 in Day Trips, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Head to the coast for a day in Italy’s Cinque Terre on a private (this is not a shared tour) 10-hour trip from Florence. Listed as a UNESCO site, the region is made up of five charming fishing villages that cling to the cliffs. Visit Manarola, Vernazza, and Corniglia, and travel between them by boat or train. In each village, you’ll have time to wander the streets, browse local shops, eat, and soak up the sea views. The tour itinerary is designed to achieve the most from you day and as much as possible we are ready to customize it to meet your expectations. If you want to visit Pisa on the same trip, upgrade when you book.
