Avventure Bellissime
The aura of isolation that has surrounded the small ancient coastal villages known as the "Cinque Terre", together with their dramatic coastal scenery, has made this small and unique area of Italy an ever more important attraction for visitors to Italy. Built in ancient times by people seeking refuge from the invading barbarians, lying between the mountains and the sea the people for centuries endured an isolated life. Ideal for those cruise ship passengers looking for a different experience on their shore excursions from the port of Livorno.
Arriving at Porto Venere, the first of the Cinque Terre, your driver-escort will escort you on a walk along the easy "Lovers Walk" trail that affords magnificent views of the coastline. The path glides above the placid Ligurian Sea beneath the mighty cliffs of the Cinque Terre affording incredible views of the coastline.
At Manarola, the most photogenic of the five villages explore a myriad of narrow alleys and pretty pastel squares, and enjoy an optional wine tasting of the local wines. And perhaps enjoy lunch at a restaurant overlooking the Ligurian Sea. From Manarola, you'll take a shared boat tour along the Cinque Terre Coastline to Vernazza, another enchanting village of the Cinque Terre.
At Vernazza, Walk through its meandering narrow alleys and enjoy splendid vistas from various view points. Or perhaps you can just reward yourself with a cool drink and the spectacular view from the harbours edge back up in to village and towering peaks above. At Vernazza, you'll have free-time for lunch.
When you arrive in Monterosso, walk around this charming village or spend some time in its sandy beach
If time permits on your journey back to Livorno, make an optional stop at Pisa to admire the world-famous Leaning Tower.
