Tour was great, learned about the history of the area, the farming and fishing culture, and the history of the villages. Pall was a great guide, very knowledgeable of the area, as a 22 year resident, he really likes to showcase his home.
Our hike with Pall was the highlight of our weekend in Cinque Terra. All of the 5 star reviews that are associated with this tour are accurate. Pall brings the history and natural wonders of Cinque Terra to life as someone who has lived there for 20+ years. He was super helpful even after the tour was over with recommendations and advice for the rest of our trip. Thanks again for everything Pall!
Thankful doesn't even begin to describe how my husband and I feel after this experience. Pall's tour was one of a kind and our favorite part of our 3-week Italy trip! He was very communicative way before our tour date, and I felt very comfortable knowing where to go and how to find him the morning of. We hiked on unique paths, learned so much about the nature, produce, and history of Cinque Terre that we would have never gotten out of a tour book (especially Rick Steves :P). In terms of hiking, my husband and I are both ok fit, but Pall made sure to take breaks to explain things, and it did not feel as hard as it would have been doing it on our own. Pall aso knew almost every local in each town we explored, and it made us feel like we also belonged to the community. If you are staying in Cinque Terre for any amount of time, this tour is absolutely worth it and is honestly a steal for the price! Take the time to book ahead with Pall and you will walk away having the time of your life like we did!
Pall was very kind and customized our trip due to us day tripping from Rome. He was very knowledgeable and has a passion for sharing the stories from these villages! It was one of our favorite tours we’ve ever booked through La Vacanza Travel.
What an amazing experience! Pall was an excellent guide with a fountain of information on the history of Cinque Terre. I am so glad I went on this journey with him, thank you. I highly recommend Pall
