⚠️WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE CHECKING IN⚠️

We want to provide you with some helpful tips to ensure a smooth and enjoyable trip:

1) PACK LIGHT, EXPECT LOTS OF STAIRS

Firstly, we recommend packing light as Riomaggiore is known for its steep and narrow streets and staircases. It will be easier for you to navigate around town with minimal luggage.

2) LEAVE THE CAR BEHIND

Another important tip is to leave your car behind as cars are not allowed. You can easily reach Riomaggiore by train. If you decide to arrive by car, take a look ahead where we talk about parking in Riomaggiore.

3) UNDERSTAND THE 5 TERRE EXPRESS TRAIN

The 5 Terre Express train is the best way to explore the Cinque Terre region. It runs regularly throughout the day and connects all five towns. However, it can be crowded during peak season, so plan accordingly.

4) YOU'LL NEED THE CINQUE TERRE CARD

This card allows you to use the train and gives you access to the hiking trails between the towns. It's a great value and highly recommended. Take a look ahead to know where to buy it.
