And I thought that some of the locations in the movie looked familiar...so similar to the shots you had in your vlog of the colorful buildings, pristine water, and rolling hills. Apparently the director of the movie is from the area and used Cinque Terre as inspiration for the setting of this movie!

Just spent a few days in La Spezia and travelled to Cinque Terre over 2 days - also spent some time in Manarolo the 5th town where you can jump off the rocks to swim - the town is the least beautiful of the 5 - we hiked from Monteresso to Vernazza which took 1h 20 min and is relatively easy - we are in our early 60’s - the hike from Corniglia to Manarolo took 2h and is tough (reverse route even tougher)

@NewstateNomads Жыл бұрын

Thanks so much! Our trip was in October, March would also be shoulder season in Italy so likely lower crowds. The challenge with early spring is that some places/shuttles are not open for the season yet, versus in the fall you can catch them before the stop for the year. For example, the water taxi service only runs seasonally, so you will need to check their site to confirm dates of operation. 👍 -Howard

Excellent video you guys a very likable . we are going in May and are so psyched. Do you guys drone at all because I heard drones aren't permitted in cinque terra

@NewstateNomads 9 ай бұрын

Thanks so much and glad our episode was helpful for your planning! May is a busier time, but I have no doubt it's going to be a great time. Like many places, flying a drone in Cinque Terra (an Italian National Park) is forbidden unless you receive specific permission and a permit from the governing agency. If you are looking to do so, I will forewarn that it isn't an easy, fast, or cheap option so you might want to skip it and fly elsewhere. However, flying a drone in Italy can be straightforward depending on whether you are flying recreationally or for commercial purposes in most areas of the country. Here's a helpful link to more info on drone regulations in Italy: www.drone-made.com/post/italy-drone-laws

Loved the video! Very informative! Thank you! I was in Cinque Terre this week (June 2022) with every other tourist post COVID and it was NOT with it. It was crowded over rated and overpriced. Don’t expect a pretty cool icy ire without tourist like in the video. It felt like the Disney world of Italy! I don’t recommend for the budgeting tourist. Bars are crowded and some were closed due to staffing. Service is terrible and they won’t sit a couple or group that is not ordering a full dinner or meal because it’s not worth the business. They want you to spend enough to make it worth their time. I’d recommend other cities in the area or northern Italy instead! Don’t mean to sound negative but I want to be real! :)

love the content, really helpful... thank you... can you tell me if you took the coastal train from Rome to la Spezia or did you take the other train? I'll be doing the same as you in October and I think the coastal train would be a pretty ride ..but I am scared to death of navigating it all.

@NewstateNomads 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks so much and great questions! We took the more central train (it was faster/less stops), but if you have the time take the coastal. When you arrive in La Spezia, it's just a brief walk from the station into the center of town. Lots of accomodation options there, and then the train ride into Cinque Terre (from the same station) is only 10-15 minutes. The beauty of the passes we purchased was it provides unlimited train rides and shuttle busses, which makes it effortless to just hop on the next train to keep exploring the area. 👍 -Howard

I think you'll have a great time! Everyone warns of the rain in shoulder season, but truthfully we had great weather for the majority of our time there. The benefits of lower crowds definitely outweighs possible weather, BUT be sure to check the schedule for the water taxis to see if they are still running that late in October (they are seasonal).

For the info of peeps, being gluten intolerant is more than just having an allergy. It is very serious. Celiac Disease is an extremely serious condition and if undiagnosed is very damaging to the body. Most peeps go undiagnosed for years (some are never diagnosed) and by that time the damage is done. Having a simple blood test is recommended.

Great Video - Italy's a bucket list item for me... Curious about what kind of back pack you had on your walk arounds. It looks comfortable and stylish. Do you also speak the language ?

@NewstateNomads Жыл бұрын

Thank you! Italy is amazing! We don't speak the language, but learned important phrases and did the best we could! The bag we have is listed here in our Amazon shop, although it's currently listed as out of stock. amzn.to/3HExGPR

Great video!! Thank you!! My boyfriend and I are going to Milan, then Cinque Terre (staying in Vernazza) and then to Rome. Total trip will be about a week and a half. I’m not the best at packing light 😬 but know I need to! Could you give recommendations on what were the essentials of your trip as far as clothes/accessories/bags were?

@NewstateNomads 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Jillian! You're going to have an amazing time. My biggest advice would be comfortable shoes! Cinque Terre is extremely hilly with lots of stairs. I wore tennis shoes one day and was very glad I did. We did the whole 3 week trip with one carry on each of clothes. 😆 What time of year will you be there?

@@NewstateNomads thank you for the reply! We are going end of September to beginning of October. Milan for 4 days, Cinque Terre for 2, Rome for 4 :) My boyfriend is a tshirt and shorts kind of guy when he’s not working, but he read casual attire like that isn’t so accepted in Italy. Do you know if that’s true? Any help you could offer is so appreciated!

Staying in La Spezia is a common mistake. You see the great views and sights, of course, but CT local life comes alive after the tourists board their trains back to La Spezia, or wherever they're day-tripping from, usually before dinner. I recommend Vernazza. At dinner time, and particularly after sunset, it becomes much quieter, and more easily walkable, and the locals come out to play!

Maggie, great recommendations if someone wanted to stay in one of the towns of CT, and we agree that it is an ideal way to experience the culture if you can afford it! However, our recommendation for budget travel is a 30 minute train ride from La Spezia (max is 30 if riding all the way to/from Monterosso) for an excellent inexpensive alternative, and additionally, the trains run to and from La Spezia to all the CT towns 20 hours a day (trains stop at midnight, resume at 4AM March-November see below).

May I ask what airport you flew into Italy? We are thinking possibly Florence but would love to hear what you did

@NewstateNomads Жыл бұрын

Hi Ken! Of course, we flew into and out of Rome but immediately drove to Florence when we landed. That just happened to be the best option for where we were departing from here in the states! We have an entire series on Italy if that helps at all :) kzfaq.info/sun/PL65WeD4x2qTgDADLuke6HCDOKVLcI--iN
