We visit Italy's most remote, romantic stretch of the Riviera, from Vernazza to Monterosso

Italy's Riviera: Cinque Terre Rick Steves' Europe

Premiered October 04, 2014
Italy's Riviera: Cinque Terre

Exploring Italy's most remote, romantic stretch of Riviera, we visit five tiny port towns: dramatic Vernazza, surrounded by vineyards; reclusive Corniglia, high on its bluff; pastel Manarola; hardscrabble Riomaggiore; and pint-sized resort of Monterosso. Fishing for anchovies, sipping wine out of rustic barrels, and savoring twinkling Mediterranean vistas, we enjoy the ultimate Riviera adventure.
