Cinque Terre, the enchanting jewels of Ligurian coast, seen by an unusual and enchanting point of view: the sea. This exclusive tour will allow you to enjoy a unique experience, a quiet and relaxing cruise, at sunset, looking to the cliffs and coves and to their hidden treasures: Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore. Onboard, you'll also be delighted by a complete italian Aperitif, with a tasting of local wines and delicacies.

One of the most beautiful and evocative spectacles to be seen is the Manarola Nativity, the largest and brightest in the world and for this reason included among the Guinnesses of Records. During two days designed for a family trip between Riomaggiore and Manarola, in the heart of the Cinque Terre, you can immerse yourself in an unusual Christmas atmosphere that surrounds this strip of land between sea and hills, lit up with magic from dawn to dusk. Wrapped in the thousands of lights of the nativity scene, you can listen to the story of the locals on the origins of this extraordinary event, which involves the entire population of Manarola. The following day, after having stayed in a comfortable apartment in the center of the village of Riomaggiore, you can try your hand at making Ligurian pesto in a "fondo", an ancient cellar dating back to 1200, according to the true local tradition.

Book a private Cinque Terre boat cruise, and see the region’s coastline in the soft, early evening light. As a skipper navigates the boat, you’ll sit back and admire sights of the Cinque Terre’s fishing villages on a 2-hour route from Riomaggiore. Sip on wine, enjoy olives and focaccia, and watch the sun slip into the sea. Food and drinks are at your own expense. 

For a comfortable guided sea excursion, you will get on beautiful traditional fishing boats, typical Ligurian “gozzi”, which are able to transport passengers in peace and quiet, offering comfort and shelter on board. Every request you might have will be fulfilled, from diving into the sea in small bays (the coves) and caves, under the waterfalls... until aperitifs on board. You will hear about people and places, with sympathy and serenity, happy to share all this enjoyment. On board there is also a small kitchen, so you can enjoy one of the classic Mediterranean aperitifs on the sea ... served with good homemade wine of Cinque Terre. Finally, in line with the philosophy of the marine park where the boat is sailing, the environmental aspect is particularly taken care of. The boats are painted with low-impact paints, no anti-fouling is used in the hulls and some boats are equipped with electric motor powered by solar panel.
