Cinque Terre and the Amalfi Coast

Railbookers sells Cinque Terre and the Amalfi Coast as an independent rail vacation, meaning travelers follow the route on their own schedule rather than with an escorted group. The trip runs 8 days and 7 nights, starting in Milan, where the description highlights the city's fashion and architecture, before rail travel south to Manarola, one of the villages of the Cinque Terre, for a stay described as living like a local. From there the package continues to Sorrento, with visits to the Sorrento Coast, the island of Capri, and the Amalfi Coast towns of Positano and Ravello. Railbookers does not publish a day-by-day breakdown, so the exact split of nights across Milan, Manarola, and Sorrento is not specified. It suits travelers who want to combine a major Italian city, the coastal villages of the Cinque Terre, and the Amalfi Coast in one independent trip, without a group tour.
