Hi, Thanks for the excellent information on your website. It was a big help with our visits to both Gimmelwald (hostel was a dream) and CT. Here is an update for those seeking rooms in Vernazza. We got off the train at 7:30 p.m. Friday in mid July at Vernazza and were lucky enough to…
My family just returned from 2 weeks in Italy, one in Mennagio on Lake Como and the 2nd in Riomaggiore – what a fantastic trip! The children (ages 3, 7 & 9) had a great time and were welcomed everywhere we went. We stayed in an apartment rented through www.vacationvillas.net and had great luck –…
Thank you for the website. I had been to Italy many times to visit family, but never heard of CT until a friend asked me about it, and I found the website. I was worried about crowds, and arrived in Sestri Levanto on my rented vespa from Milan the third week of October 2002. The…
Hi my name is Stephanie Noblett and I recently returned from a trip of a life time visiting Ireland, Italy and the States. Italy was a stunning country intensely seeped in history and tradition. The Vista’s were breathtaking, the people lovely and the life style I’d love to adopt. One of the highlights of our…
I was there for four days in last May. My wife and I have no words to describe our experience, simple we found a paradise!!!!!!! Fabian D Trucios
My compliments on a very informative and well put together site. We consulted your site before visiting the cinque terre and found it very helpful. In return, we’d like to share our experiences with your readers and perhaps offer some tips on anyone else planning to visit this fantastic place. I’m a Canadian currently living…
After reading some of the comments, I felt prompted to share our experience in the wonderful Cinque Terre, because I can’t believe there are still people like ‘Holly’ who travel without researching their destination beforehand; it can make or break your trip and there is no excuse when we have access to such a wonderful…
I made good use of your information on the Cinque Terre this year and despite having to go there for the last two weeks of June my two friends and I had a fabulous time. It was too hot to do much walking though but we did enjoy the exquisite villages, the sea and also…
We just returned from the Cinque Terre, staying in Vernazza and had a wonderful time. Our departure almost cancelled the enjoyment of the stay had it not been for the hospitality and extraordinary efforts of the Gentleman from the BLUE MARLIN Bar. Upon leaving Vernazza we discovered that there was a General Strike for the…
My companion and I spent three nights in Vernazza the 2nd week in Oct. 2002 and toured as far north as Levanto and south to Riomaggiore. In 1.75 hours walking from Vernazza to Monterosso we encountered maybe 400 people coming the other way-bad luck I suppose to run into a few tour buses. The trail…
