escape but also ideal for a family trip. From Monterosso al Mare to Riomaggiore and her famous ‘Via dell’Amore’, I am able to enjoy my favourite activities: exploring the historical and picturesque villages overlooking the sea, hiking between the villages and marvelling at the spectacular panorama or relaxing on beautiful beaches.
