★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 559 reviews · 12 hours (approx.) · from $169

Review of the Milan to Cinque Terre day trip, including Manarola, Monterosso, the boat cruise, transport, timing, price, and practical tips.

“We attended this tour on an unfortunate day. There was an incident before we left regarding travellers who booked the night before and their names were not on the list so they were left as we drove off. Although our guide was informative when asked a question, I didnt feel she gave us enough information during the day. It rained!!! This changed our day completely as we didnt go on the boat. We used the train. where we were packed in like sardines, it was awful. I feel I would have preferred if this tour was cancelled due to weather. Finally we had a very outspoken person on the tour…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 383 reviews · 14 hours (approx.) · from $157

Review of the Milan to Venice day trip, covering transport, guided sights, glassmaking, gondolas, costs, timing, and practical tips.

“As a group of coworkers, we enjoyed the trip to Venezia thoroughly. It is a fairly long drive from Milan, and our guide advised us to rest as it was going to be hot in Venice... and it was! Hat and water is essential. Our guide provided us with interesting information during the guided tour which included some local gossip about a big upcoming wedding. We opted to do the optional gondola ride and this was efficiently arranged through our guide. The day trip was well worth it, and the guide was excellent. 5 star experience!”
