Private Cinque Terre Trekking Tours

Pall was an amazing guide who paced us through this challenging hike well. We learnt and saw so much.

Pall, the trekguyd was an amazing tour guide. He met with us the night before and explained the hike which was very helpful. He was very encouraging and actually took good care of us taking us at our pace through the mangificent mountains of Cinque Terre. I must also mention that I had locked my suitcase by mistake and Pall, at the end of the tour took us to a hardware, friends of his, and insure that we borrowed cutting plyers to cut the lock. I received these plyers without any money as down payment except my promise to return it and Pall's word. I was able to cut the luck and was extremely happy. Amazing trek Plus. Loved it.

This was a unique and amazing experience. Bridget was extremely knowledgeable about the places we visited and the culture. This is a "must do" for people who love to venture off the beaten path and explore the life of the locals. The scenery from up high is fantastic! The hike is long and steep in some areas but I loved every minute of it. Thank you for a great adventure!

The tour was great! The guide Pall lives in Cinque Terre and was able to give great local insights! Also, the hike took a less touristy path that really gave it a more private tour feel. Highly recommend this tour!

I can't say enough good things about our trek with Pall. If I could give him 50 stars instead of 5 I would!

Pall was great and I highly recommend this experience. Pall took us on trails we never could have found ourselves. In addition he has a wealth of knowledge regarding Riomaggiore and the surrounding area. We walked through and around hillside villages that are not even mentioned in most of the travel information on Cinque Terra. I was glad we booked this hike on our first full day in Cinque Terra. By doing so Pall was able to answer many of our general questions and this gave us a good lay of the land so we could plan our stay accordingly. You do need to be prepared for a full day of hill hiking. Eat a hearty breakfast since you start early in the morning and stop late for lunch. Beautiful scenery, information, good company and a workout: what more can you ask for!

This tour is a must! Pall is an amazing guide with close ties to the area. The trek was invigorating and the sights were incredible. It was a wonderful way to explore the region and we learned a lot as well.

The tour was supposed to be a private tour with flexibility suited to us. It wasn't. It was all about what the tour guide wanted to do. We expected a lovely glass of wine at least somewhere along the way, a nice leisurely lunch, and certainly a couple of bathroom breaks. Rather by the time we finally got to a restaurant and restroom we were desperate! The scenery was great in spots but the hike itself did not match the description. In order to see one of villages we had to take the train on our own after dark from Riomaggiore! We thought we'd get to see a bit more than two of the villages. Riomaggiore was lovely but we felt cheated out of the other villages.

We loved this tour because we got to see the back country off the beaten path! Our guide was exceptional with lots of information and insight into the area and it's population. We enjoyed being away from the crowds and to see how the locals live!

This was one of the best tours we've ever taken. Pall was absolutely amazing. After a few hours it felt like we were going for a long walk with an old friend. The BEST part of he tour was learning about the history of the area and how it was founded. For us, this was more of learning tour than a sightseeing tour. We took some AMAZING pictures, but we're not going to post them... We'd advise you to experience Cinque Terre in PERSON... With Pall!
