The trip "Walks Of The Cinque Terre And Portofino" starts and ends in Moneglia. It is a trekking and hiking tour that takes 8 days taking you through Cinque Terre and Liguria, Moneglia and Chiavari in Italy. "Walks Of The Cinque Terre And Portofino" is a guided small group trip that includes accommodation in hotels, transport, meals and others.

On the most beautiful coastline in Italy, between the Cinque Terre and bay of Portofino, our base in the seaside town of Moneglia is a real treat. On inspirational walks through hills, woodland and coastal villages, we discover why these areas have earned names such as the Gulf of the Poets. Many of the most iconic trails in Italy are found in the Liguria region and this trip makes a great introduction to the country with ample opportunities for walking, relaxing and sampling delicious food. Better yet, we'll also visit Assirto, one of the finest tavernas in Italy, for an extra-special wine tasting.
