A
dramatic meeting of mountains and
sea is what makes the Italian
Riviera so alluring. Here terraced
vineyards and quaint villages cling
to rugged cliffs. Turquoise waters
fill quiet coves. Small fishing
boats drop anchor by lavish yachts,
and olive groves, pine forests and
wildflowers line ancient footpaths.
Backroads invites you to explore the
Cinque Terre by foot, train and
boat. Dine on the region’s
specialties: fresh seafood, pasta
al pesto and crisp white wines.
And indulge in two nights at
Portofino’s Hotel Splendido, one of
Europe’s most acclaimed hotels.
