Cinque Terre Private Tour from La Spezia

Alessio was a fabulous guide! He was funny, informative and patient. The sights were breathtaking and the day was exactly as we’d hoped. I wouldn’t change a thing!

What an amazing tour of Cinque Terre National Park. We highly recommend Gianmaria and would love to do another tour with him if we are in the area. He picked 4 of us at the port of La Spezia. The drive was spectacular. He planned out a great itinerary considering a couple of spots we had seen and also some mobility issues. We stopped inPorto Venere, Vernazza, Corniglia, and Monterosso. He made a reservation for us at a wonderful restaurant in Corniglia with amazing food and a great view. We also stopped at some wonderful scenic views and a great shop along the way to buy some local wine, olive oil, etc The tour was one of the best ever! Thank you Gianmaria!

Our day with Gianmaria could not have been better. Loved the stops, the pace, the van. He was a terrific host, and we'd highly recommend this tour...

The “Cinque Terre Full Guided Tour from La Spezia” was truly an awesome and enriching experience. Our driver/Guide Allessio picked up at the La Spezia ship terminal and our first stop was in the lovely port town of Porto Venera. It overlooks the whole coast of the Cinque Terra National Park and provided a great overview of the region. We then drove and picked up our local guide Fulvia. Both Alessio and Fulvia were fantastic guides. Professional, knowledgeable, local, and fun. We drove to the first Cinque Terre town of Manarola where Fulvia picked up the guiding. The Cinque Terre villages are picture postcard beautiful and Fulvia seemed to know every local and shared her love and knowledge of the region. We then proceeded via ferry to the village of Vernazza and dined in charming restaurant for lunch then proceeded via train to our last village, Monterosso. After some time exploring, we met back up with Alessio who drove us along the mountaintop roads with stunning views before returning us to our ship. Overall the tour lasted about 8 hours and provided an intimate and information packed adventure of Cinque Terra. With only the two of us and our guide, it was easy to navigate the small, hilly, and sometimes crowded villages, boats, and trains. Although the cost is not inexpensive, it is a great value for those who seek to really get see and experience Cinque Terra in one day. I highly recommend Limo Service in Italy (our second time hiring them) and any tours with Allessio and Fulvia. The tour is best for couples and small groups of friends. Bring comfortable shoes and be prepared in an immersive experience into this very special place.

Fantastic. Driver Leonardo exceptional! 10/10 experience. Beautfiul tour customized to our wishes. Comfortable ride.

Alessio made all the difference on this tour. Not only was he knowledgeable and super friendly, he struck the perfect balance of letting us know the highlights of what we should see but not pushing us into anything that was not our choice. He was so proud of his country and all the sites he showed us and even set up lunch for us. Overall a fantastic experience!

Alessio is amazing. So informative, accommodating and knowledgeable. Customized the tour to our wants. He was a great driver, knew the roads so well and gave us options to choose from.

Unbelievable day with Gianmaria! Six of us toured Cinque Terre in a private minivan It was like traveling with a friend. Gian was very knowledgeable as well as accommodating and always professional. His recommendations were great! He took us to a wonderful restaurant for lunch. We were back at the ship on time we would definitely tour with him again. You will not be sorry!

Gianmaria is an excellent tour guide. He was flexible when we had a last minute change in port docking location and was waiting for us. He drove us to Manarola and we took a ferry to Vernassa and then on by car. He gave us history and interesting facts along the way, even pointing out the leaning tower of Pisa. This was a private tour with just two couples and we felt very taken care of. He was personable and picked us a very picturesque restaurant overlooking the water for lunch. If you are looking for a small group tour, you cannot go wrong with Gianmaria!

Gianmaria and his colleague Valerio are amazing. In the days leading up to the cinque terre trip, they were predicting rain. Gianmaria stayed in touch and when it was clear it would be rained out, he suggested we instead go to Pisa and Volterra. We met Gianmaria who is the best guide you could ask for. Fun, friendly, knowledgeable. We visited Pisa and Volterra and had a beautiful private lunch at a family winery, which was magnificent. The next day, our son had to go back to school, so my husband and I did the Cinque Terre trip with Valerio. He was also a fantastic guide in every possible way. After my husband and I hiked Corneglia, he brought us to a beautiful restaurant, and I had one of the best meals I’ve ever had on my 3 trips around Italy. We’ve done many private tours in different cities—Gianmaria and Valerio are outstanding. They felt like friends and were just the best—so accommodating, knowledgeable, fun to be with and helpful. You won’t find a more perfect tour company or better guides!
