Liguria stretches along the coast of Italy, from Nice to Cinque Terre. Liguria is one of the most beautiful coastal areas in Italy, make sure you have enough time to enjoy all the winding little roads.
We can't believe it. We are sitting at an outdoor terrace, at the far end of a cliff in Cinque Terre. Sea View. A cold beer in hand. How could we be so lucky? Is this happiness? Our last stop in the Cinque Terre is Riomaggiore, which both charms and surprises.
Some cities are passed on the way to somewhere else. One of these towns is Santa Margherita, the gateway to Portofino. That city that everyone passes by, but no one really visits.
How do you experience the five villages of Cinque Terre most conveniently? Can you visit all the villages in one day? Yes, by taking the train in Cinque Terre!
Vernazza was our second stop in the Cinque Terre and perhaps the visit that gave me the most "deja vu" feeling - even though I had never been here before.
Sestri Levante was supposed to be just a stop on the road, but the city turned out to be something more. Midway between Portofino and Cinque Terre, between luxury and mass tourism. An oasis to return to.
Google Portofino and you will be met with images of luxurious boats, fantastic houses, beautiful clothes and perfect people. Portofino is no ordinary fishing village, but one of Italy's most exclusive holiday resorts.
