Hyped for a reason: Enjoy a train ride at Cinque Terre

Beachy lure at Cinque Terre
Region: Italy
In this UNESCO site, you can expect a fabulous interaction of local people with indigenous nature all around. This has resulted into exceptional scenic beauty. And that’s why a train journey here is high on our suggestion list:

Cinque Terre by train:
Arm yourself with an affordable and comfortable Eurail Italy Pass and board a train to La Spezia. Connections are easy as there are direct Le Freccia trains from Rome, Genoa and Pisa. Most tourists go around the five towns that make up the Cinque Terre with the Regionale train. It makes each and every local station stop, so, just be on time.

The tip: The train passes through tunnels and every moment when sunlights come through, the view is spectacular. Carry your beachwear and snacks.
