We had a fantastic day touring the cinque terre by boat. The beverages and music on board made for a great way to take in all the sights. Both swimming spots were beautiful and a great way to cool off in the sea. The break in Monterosso was enough for us to have a sit down lunch and tour around a bit before heading back to the boat. We highly recommend this tour to be able to see all five towns from the sea!

Super boat trip, a day filling program. We left in the morning, visited the beautiful villages of Cinque Terre, and in between time for a refreshing dip in the azure blue water. Our guide, Marco, knows a lot about the villages and the environment. Definitely recommended to book this trip.

A great way to see the coast of Cinque Terre. My young adult children especially liked meeting the other travellers, enjoying the beverages and it was especially nice to stop and swim to cool off. Having the music playing made it feel like a truly relaxing tour. And our guide Sergio made us feel very welcome.
