Overview

Walk back in time through old vineyards that you can only experience with a local guide. Learn about the wines and the rich history dating back to the 9th & 11th centuries. Learn firsthand the struggles these people endured. You will not find another tour like this. We have quizzes on herbs & many other plants. Don't hike? That is no problem. Let us help you experience it so you can enjoy it. We care about YOU & YOUR experience that only a local can provide.

What To Expect

Here, we hike the hillsides, talking about the vineyards and the history of Cinque Terre. We pass farmers, whom we sometimes stop to talk to, and locals as we go through the villages. We want you to feel like one of us here. You are not being on a bus tour with 40 people running through the town in 20 minutes. Your guide does not leave your side while in the village. This is truly a personal experience one has with us. The trek goes from Riomaggiore up & back towards Groppo before heading down into Manarola. It will take about 4 hours of hiking, photos & learning before you can get a bite to eat in Manarola. The rest is an easy train ride to the beach resort of Monterosso. Here, you walk along the boardwalk through the tunnel to Old Town. Tour this small resort village & end our tour here. Changes can be made to accommodate those who do not want to hike but would like to take a walking tour. You can request details?

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
