La Spezia, Italy Cruise Port

Walk to the train and take it to Cinque Terre/Vernazza! It is breathtaking! We climbed up the hillside and took amazing photos! We also ate lunch there under the umbrellas by the water. They had homemade pesto! Loved it!

The "free shuttle" took us to the excursion place, when we thought it was going to La Spezia Centrale train station. When I asked the taxi driver the cost of getting from where we'd been dropped off, to the station, he said "50 euro." I reconfirmed several times that he was saying, "50" and not "15" euro (using my fingers to count :D), but he insisted "50 euro." Needless to say, I began to walk, ended up catching a city bus and from there caught a train to see Pisa. It was an adventure for sure... A wonderful fun day.

A bus tour to Cinque Terre made our day. Worth every penny. Took it on our own right from town. Very inexpensive and the 5 villages we visited were awesome. The tour is in a 15 passenger very comfortable bus and the scenery is great!

Take the train to Piza for 8 Euros round trip. You can do it, even if you don't speak Italian. Buy round trip ticket in LaSpezia.

There should be a notice for the shore excursions that include a portion in boat, like the one to cinque terre, saying that it will be subject to tide conditions and also information on what is the alternative should that be the case.

LaSpezia -Florence is too far away. But you can easily catch train from LaSpezia Central station to Pisa (Pisa S. Rossore station is the closest. Train schedule check trenitalia.com/tcom-en). About 5€ each way. Trip takes about an hour each way. Cinque Terra villages are also another option by train that is not too far away.

Florence is a 2-hour bus ride. The crowds are overwhelming turning the tourist areas into a quagmire. Forget about getting into any of the major sites. The lines are way too long. Good values on leather goods at Misuri.
