Our guide Chiara was fantastic. She was so informative, helpful and patient! Her group text message was a great tool.
Lovely experience, Terezza is amazing 🤩 But can add more time at Monterrusso and reduce time in Pisa.

We had a wonderful day trip to Cinque Terre and Pisa! Chiara was also so helpful, leading us where to go and giving insider tips on the area and places back in Florence. It was a lovely day spent by the ocean, and we felt like there was just enough time in each spot! Definitely recommend.
