6 days in Cinque Terre Itinerary

Made up of five picturesque towns on the Ligurian coast, Cinque Terre is Italy's answer to the French Riviera.

Venture out of the city with trips to Pisa (Baptistery of St. John, Leaning Tower of Pisa, &more), Genoa (Aquarium of Genoa & Boccadasse) and Le mura di Lucca (in Lucca). There's lots more to do: trek along Footpath Monterosso - Vernazza, stroll through Cinque Terre footpaths, head outdoors with Cinque Terre Trails, and take in the waterfront at Passeggiata Lungomare.

For photos, ratings, reviews, and tourist information, refer to the Cinque Terre trip maker site.

If you are flying in from Australia, the closest major aiports are Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport, Pisa International Airport and Peretola Airport. Expect a daytime high around °C in May, and nighttime lows around °C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 2nd (Tue) early enough to travel back home.
