"A man who has not been to Italy, is always conscious of an inferiority, from his not having seen what it is expected a man should see."
Samuel Johnson
The Experience
If you want to visit one of the most beautiful places in the world and enjoy a relaxing local experience in one of the top Italian destinations, this offer is precisely what you're looking for.
Surprise someone you care about with the 5 Terre Private day trip from Florence. Starting from the city that is considered to be the Cradle of the Renaissance, you will be taken on the most unforgettable day trip in 5 Terre. To start your visit of the villages that are now part of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites, you will visit Manarola and Vernazza, admiring their incredibly colourful buildings. You will then have the possibility of choosing a real local experience, among Wine Tasting in a cellar of the best local wines, a typical lunch with Pesto and Focaccia or a cooking lesson where you can make the authentic Pesto alla Genovese yourself, using the mortar.
Your day trip will continue in Riomaggiore, with its symbolic Mount Verugula enriching the landscape. Monterosso is the next destination, where you can take a break and swim in the sea, after a stroll through the old town. After that, you'll be taken back to Florence with incredible new memories!
Don't forget that you also have the possibility of exploring all 5 Lands on your own, having 7h of free time with the Transfer Only option.
