Top Things to do in Vernazza
The 10 Best Private Tours in Vernazza, Liguria
With Cinque Terre’s only proper harbor, Vernazza has a long history as a fishing village. While there is a small beach, sightseeing is more common in this astoundingly beautiful cliffside town. Highlights include the 16th-century Belforte Tower (which offers incredible views of the area), the 11th-century Doria Castle and the 14th-century Santa Margherita d'Antiochia church. It involves a steep hike, but the shrine at Nostra Signora Di Reggio (Our Lady of Reggio) is well worth it.

The day was good however a couple of constructive feedback points for you 1) when I first looked at the trip the meeting point was at the end of the road the hotel was on, however your e-ticket and website made us go to the main bus station 20 mins tram ride away and the tour guide commented as I hadn’t checked in a Julian’s Bar, as everyone else had. 2) the second point is to do with the final leg of the trip in Siena, when it was pouring with rain and we were about to head back to the bus and the tour guides boss had come up with another great idea for the small cost of €3 everyone could get the trenino back to the bus, half the clients didn’t want to do this and we were made to stand in the rain getting wet whilst the main tour guide waited for the trenino to arrive before the walkers were allowed to set off on foot back to the bus. Had I not stepped up and asked for the walkers to be allowed to walk with a guide without waiting, we would of been soaked!

Absolutely the best day I had while visiting Italy. Angel was our guide for the entire day. At the first winery we had the pleasure of starting the visit with a tour of the vineyard in a horse-drawn cart, followed by a fantastic lunch with km0 products. Visit to the village of Suvereto and finish with more wine in a family winery where they create one of the most appreciated wines in Italy. I can say with certainty that this day was one of, if not the best day of our vacation in Tuscany.

The tour was really great - super interesting stories about Cinque Terre - amazing views and great spots for snorkeling! Really the only thing I would recommend is bring your own water - there was only one half liter bottle for each participant which was ok for our tour since it wasn't too hot, but otherwise it wouldn't have been enough. I definitly can recommend booking this tour - the boat is super clean and the crew extremely friendly! Thanks for this great trip!

Our family used this wonderful company for a day trip from the port. From the driver, Simone, waiting for us (with a smile) at the port terminal as we exited the cruise boat to telling our group of seven all about Tuscany (as we drove towards Florence), this adventure was outstanding. Simone (being born and raised in Pisa), was well versed on past and current happenings of this beautiful area. His recommendation for a place for lunch could not have been more spot on. It turned out to be the highlight of our 12 day holiday. Simone comes with our highest recommendation and we look forward to using your company services in the near future. Thank you again!
