Get to know Cinque Terre with Viator

Liguria’s answer to the Amalfi Coast, this stretch of cheery coastline—names for its five technicolor fishing villages—has retained more rustic authenticity than its chic cousin to the south (though both are bursting with visitors all summer long). Scenic hiking paths and a toy-sized rail line run through the terraced vineyards and gardens between each village; in town tiny shops and trattorias line the vertiginous lanes that head straight down to the sea.
