Pick-up and departure for Cinque Terre National Park. The drive from Florence to Cinque Terre takes about 2 hours.

Your private driver will take you directly to Levanto, where you’ll board your private boat to the first fishing village. The ride lasts about 45 minutes and offers incredible views of Cinque Terre from the sea.

Throughout the day, you’ll see all five of the famous fishing villages — Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore — from the water, each perched dramatically along the cliffs. Your captain will anchor in a beautiful swimming spot, where you can take a dip in the turquoise sea and rinse off afterward under the sweet-water shower on board.

Monterosso al Mare is the largest out of the five coastal villages. The area is surrounded by hills cultivated with lemons, vines, and olives.

Vernazza, unique in Cinque Terre for its small harbor, which allows boats to dock safely in its protected bay. Visit the Church of Santa Margherita d’Antiochia, built in 1318, or relax by the sea and enjoy one of the best gelatos in Italy. You’ll also enjoy a typical Ligurian lunch at a seaside restaurant with stunning views of the coastline.

Return to Levanto and enjoy a confortable drive back to Florence.
