How to travel between the Cinque Terre villages
The regional train is generally the most convenient way to travel between Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore.
Alternatively, during the boating season, visitors can use the ferry services connecting the coastal villages.
Shuttle buses are particularly useful for reaching hamlets and hillside locations that are not directly served by trains or ferries.
