Italy's Riviera: Cinque Terre

[@CBJAMPA]

As an ordinary man, from a poor south american country, travelling is not to be dreamed of in our reality. I've been delighting myself, though, with these precious programs Mr. Steves has so generously and gracefully brought to us over the years. It just struck me now I never even said a word of thanks. So here it is: Thank you, Mr. Rick Steves for sharing with us the joy of travelling and getting to know different places, peoples and cultures! Best wishes from Brazil!

[@jupitergiove1655]

Great memories! I went here 9 years ago with my family, when I was 13. Even at that age I utterly loved it. We were staying in Vernazza and visited the other 4 towns. It was beautiful. Recommend Cinque Terre to anyone and everyone!

[@agushll74]

How many days do you need to do this? Can you go by car? Where do you can park if you go by car? Which is the best place to spend a night? I will apprecciate any recommendation because I will go in July.

[@fatimahaidari]

Wow, Cinque Terre is an absolute gem! The vibrant colors of the houses perched on the cliffs against the backdrop of the azure Mediterranean sea are simply breathtaking. Exploring the narrow streets and picturesque villages felt like stepping back in time. The local cuisine, with its fresh seafood and pesto dishes, is a culinary delight. I highly recommend visiting all five villages - Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore - to truly immerse yourself in the beauty of Cinque Terre. It's a true paradise for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Can't wait to go back and experience its charm again!

Just got back from Italy and the CT about a month ago. I fell in love with this beautiful country and the CT at first sight with my eyes. Please enjoy everything it has to offer you when you travel there. The Italian people are extremely friendly and want you to have a good time and want you to enjoy your stay there. Be careful on the erosion boulders that protect the little towns of the CT. I slipped on those huge rocks and basically did a pin ball maneuver hitting rock after rock til my resting place was wedged between 4 rocks with my feet sticking up in the air. Didn't help that I was recovering from too much delicious vini from the night before. Thankfully, I was not hurt and some good Samaritans came to my rescue helping me. Oh, and Focaccia is just so delicious it is not even funny.. Ciao!!

We recently visited Vernazza. It is beautiful and very quaint town. Well worth a visit. We drove. We were on our way back to Geneve from Firenze. Don't drive! Take the train. The road to and from Vernazza is narrow, winding and very steep. And . . . takes forever. Once you get there - unless you have a gate pass - you have to park 1km away from the village. Repeat. Do not drive. Take the train.

Qua ragazzi non esiste ancora nel 2018 uno strumento contro l'indigenza ma ne vogliamo parlare? ci rendiamo conto? Strumento che esiste in tutta Europa, ma vi ricordate la reazione che hanno avuto i francesi quando vi erano fame e carestia?

Non c'è più il paese è abbandonato e se ne accorgerebbe anche un cieco, l'Italia è stata esautorata della sovranità,sembra uno stato fantoccio,servile ed impotente,non hai visto che i francesi hanno sconfinato e ci hanno buttato gli immigrati nel nostro territorio?

Was there in Oct 2014. This brought back many fond memories and is a very accurate representation of the Cinque Terre. Vernazza is my favourite; that's where we stayed.

[@mistertee5000]

was there last week for the second time (first time was in 2004, stayed in vernazza). still as beautiful as ever, esp. if you do the hike and get the amazing views. getting out on the super clean and warm water and looking back at all the villages is stunning too (monterosso has the best beach to swim out from or to rent a paddle boat from). extremely crowded in july though and quite noisy at night in the party village of riomaggiore where we stayed. stay in one of the other towns if you want some quiet at night. monterosso probably has the nicest places to stay and more stuff around if you like to stroll at night or have late night drinks, but away from the backpacker crowd. some of the locals aren't too enthused with the throngs of tourists either, esp. since i was last there (i saw some pretty horrific tourist behaviour this time, so am not exactly surprised!). you will get some very nice and hospitable service and you will get some horrible service. the nicer you are, the nicer they are. def worth a visit at least once!

I am fortunate to have travelled to the Cinque Terre about 20 years ago with my late husband. We stayed in Monterraso al Mer at a little hotel called La Spiaggia. I highly recommend. They sent us Christmas cards for years after we were there. Hands down, the Cinque Terre was my favorite part of our trip to Italy!

[@monicacall7532]

I love the passagieta in Italy! I wish that we had it in the U.S. It’s the perfect way to meet and visit with the locals which is one of the very best parts of foreign travel.

[@alessandroroveda2859]

Passeggiata 😉

Also from NZ. We were there exactly 3 years ago staying in an apartment in the hills above the new town of Monterosso. Wonderful memories.

[@creative-expressions]

Thank you Rick Steves. Your presentation of Italy has always given me a desire to travel to there. Perhaps Lord willing it will be.

[@denisesevera3792]

I wanna travel with Rick Steves! This looks like a great place to start!

Rick is such a goofy nerd! It seems he has followed his passion and made what he loves his livelihood. Thanks for showing us it can be done Rick!

[@Dwade6894]

Rick Steves: I will always be grateful to you for those beautiful videos of so many parts of the world that you have shared with the rest of the world.. Bless your heart...It is such a pleasure to watch them... I was in Italy several years ago but i was with one of those tours and never knew this Cinco Terra even existed in Italy.. What a joy to watch you walking all those beautiful areas of Italy and describe the food, the people, etc..

[@ObeyJesusOurLord]

Thank you. Lord Jesus, for eyes to see all this beauty! So enjoyable!

[@ciarandevaney385]

Beautifully said, 😊

[@ObeyJesusOurLord]

@@ciarandevaney385 So kind of you to say that!😊

[@rachelrosehennessy4074]

Could Italy be any more beautiful? I mean, they already have the best food, but to have the best scenery too?!

[@sergemoise7287]

Mad respect for this guy rick

[@kathmandoo]

I love this country. Been there twice over a period of 6 months. Also love the mountains.

[@oceanadex]

Excellent,i have watched it more than 10 times!

[@kingbuckyduck5669]

How these things happen. One moment I’m watching this in my room wondering when I’m gonna get out there, now here I am, sitting at Leonardo Da Vinci Airport in Rome preparing to see it for myself. Thanks Rick Steves for allowing me to come down and check out this beautiful place.

[@subtlethingsinlife]

These days the castles which used to protect the towns from marauding pirates guard only glorious views :) Well said sir !!!

[@gregorysgarrison]

Many travel writers and vloggers for that matter, harbor an underlying disdain for tourism. Rick's honest enthusiasm and positivity is infectious.

[@chaithanyakurapati1076]
