Great Experience!

This was a fantastic way to start the day! Nice and quiet, calm, no waves, just easy kayaking. Tour guide was very friendly and great. Spoke english for us that did not speak Italian. We were able to go into a cave or two and swim in a little lagoon type area next to the rocks. Even got to rinse off with a fresh water waterfall! Great all around experience and would highly recommend.

Better than I imagined

I had never been kayaking, yet I spent 3 truly pleasant hours (trust me, they fly by); Chiara is truly the best and conveys her passion even when recounting all the interesting details of the area. If you are looking for an alternative and refreshing activity, this is perfect!

Wonderful, kind guide. Excellent weather plus an octopus sighting!

Awesome experience! We lucked out with a very calm day at sea. We stopped at 4 places including a waterfall, Vernazza, a narrow cave and a wider cave. We saw an octopus in the bay at Vernazza. My kids lost their minds. Our guide Alesseo was super kind and stayed with us since our family was a slower pace. We have 3 kids and used 2 double kayaks and a single one (for our oldest who is 12 years old). The 12 yr old made it with lots of encouragement. We were gone about 3 hours.

Wonderful!

We had a wonderful kayaking tour in Monterosso! It was an amazing way to explore the beautiful coastline and see the area from the water. Chiara was very knowledgeable, friendly, and shared interesting information about the coastline and the local history throughout the trip. The pace was perfect, the scenery was breathtaking, and the entire experience was well organized. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cinque Terre. Thank you for a memorable adventure!

Great way to see Cinque Terra

We absolutely loved this tour. Chiara is a great host not just for the kayak tour but also generally for CT. A true local she has much to share. The tour is a great way to see the coast. We loved kayaking into caves and the beautiful scenery. We found the paddling very easy as the waters were super calm (by Aussie standards!). Highly recommend.

Bliss

This tour was so beautiful, we loved it. Ciarra was a terrific guide, she had interesting insights into life in CT being a genuine local. She was able to manage very different kayaking skill levels. We found the kayaking easy as there are no currents and for us only a gentle swell. We paddled deep inside sea caves, it was fantastic. Great way to see CT.
