Ornella was a great guide, she made all the instructions on where to meet etc very clear! We had a good schedule, enough time in each place to explore and take some photos. Well planned tour and a lovely experience!
It was good to have the logistics sorted out. Dani was a friendly guide, but I would've liked a litle bit more information about the villages. When we arrived there she told us that only guides from the village are allowed to give details. This would've been nice to know beforehand for full disclosure (luckily I had my guidebook with me to read a bit). It woudl also have been good to have it mentioned that it would be the low season so many places closed, boat tour not possible. I wasn't after hiking but I don't think the time allocated for each village would've let people hike much. There was only an hour in the first two villages and about 2.5 in Monterosso. It was still enjoyable but just not a great tour.
Our guides Giuliano and Nathan were amazing, the tour was so funny and enjoyful with them

We had a wonderful trip and a couple of good swims . Excellent tips from our guide made the most of our time and experiences on the day . Thank you Marta , you have been the best guide we have had so far on our travels and made it a memorable day .
Very well organized and the guide, Lucciano and driver were exceptional. We went on a heat wave and it was the only thing I recommended you to consider as it was a difficult day due to the extreme heat. There's a lot of in and out of train, stairs and walking so wear good shoes and pack very lightly.
