This private day tour ensures a personalized experience based on your interests with the utmost flexibility to explore at your own pace. The former fishing village of Portofino holds the Italian Riviera monopoly on luxury and sophistication. Once an ancient Roman colony Portofino offers lush Mediterranean hillside forests loaded with history and astonishing beauty. This picturesque tiny fishing village with pastel houses lining the shore of the harbor has been a destination of the rich and famous for more than half a century. Liz Taylor, Richard Burton and Humphrey Bogart chose Portofino as a perfect hideaway.
After Portofino, by driving back, if requested you can even have a quick stop at the Santa Margherita village, for a short stroll.
From here, we’ll drive you to the Cinque Terre, the string of five old fishing villages perched high on the Italian Riviera in the region Liguria, that represents one of the most pristine natural areas of Liguria, with a landscape unique in the world, shaped by the famous dry-stone walls.
Here you have two options:
1) Corniglia + Vernazza
2) Manarola + Riomaggiore
Personally, we suggest to take the first option, hence to Corniglia village, the one with the most amazing view, on top of the other 4 villages (cinque terre means “five lands/villages”), afterwards we could drive you to Vernazza, the most charming of the five. Riomaggiore and Manarola, are just characterized by a main road that goes down quite steep, and by many stairways here and there.
The driver will provide you with a tailor made detailed map and all the necessary explanations
And still, you’re welcome in tailoring your excursion.
