The Cinque Terre is a National Park and territory protected by UNESCO. This zone is characterised by the presence of typical steep slopes cultivated with vines thanks to terraces, unique witness of the transformation of the territory carried out by mans hard work.The suggestive kind of coast falling sheer to the sea, with cliffs which are often vertical, alternated with small creeks and enchanting beaches among rocks.

We had a wonderful time meeting your friends, seeing the beautiful countryside, and enjoying the great wine. We look forward to telling our many friends about you and your great services, and hopefully we can work with you on a villa at some point in the future.

Darren and Anna wrote.... Our favorite moment by far Guido, and we're not kidding, the best experience of our lives to date was our day with you. We will remember this day forever, and we're telling people back home mostly of that day, so it really meant a lot to us you brought us there. Thank you so much!

Christina with her great experience and knowledge of the area put together an unforgettable experience which satisfied several of my interests including food, wine, art, culture, and walks through the countryside. Guido added even more to the experience with his local knowledge, contacts, positive energy, and his light hearted and friendly manner. The small group of women that Christina put together for this trip couldn't have been better. She is very sensitive to the needs of the group and obviously has the respect of her many terrific contacts in this region."
