By now,  just about any traveler interested in Italy has heard about the  five villages of the Cinque Terre in the region of Liguria.

Liguria is situated northwest of Tuscany  and  the coastline wraps around the Mediterranean with Genova in the center,  and touches France in the western side. 

Why visit the Cinque Terre?

I am in Italy, and I thought you might find it interesting to know what one does when one has already visited all of these areas not once, not twice but ”tante volte” or many times. Here is a glimpse of The Italian Concierge’s itinerary.

Last month, the Italian Concierge featured an article on the Cinque Terre proposing new restrictions to limit its number visitors. While the new measures have not yet been put into place (as with all things in Italy, this will take some time), it’s always a good time to talk about the great hikes in the area!

Tourists looking forward to visiting Italy’s Cinque Terre may be limited by new proposals capping the number of visitors allowed into the area. Restrictions limiting the number of visitors into the World Heritage Site have been proposed, and may be implemented as early as this summer.
