Is there some kind of shuttle service other than train that we could use to get from Corniglia to La Spezia train station? The earliest train isn't quite early enough...

Hi, can you please advise me the best place to stay for a solo male 35yr traveller in Riomaggiore? Thanks

We will be traveling to Italy in sept and have chosen il borgo di campi. As on of our 'hotels' I've seen great reviews and bad reviews about the place and the only bad thing is getting to and from la spezia. If we were going into la spezia what would be the latest we could get a train back to riomaggiore and how late do the busses from there run to our hotel? I keep finding different answers

Is any of you know when is the earliest train schedule from Riomaggiore? I wonder if it is possible that i can take the train at 08:07 from La Spezia

Hello travelers,
My wife and I and another couple are planning to visit the Cinque Terre in Italy,in about ten days. We are traveling by car and we would like to spend one or two days visiting the area. Can anyone hint us how to visit this area in such a short time, and perhaps suggest where to stay and how to get around? We usually prefer to stay at B&Bs when we travel Europe. But I was wondering whether we could park the car in one place and visit the Cinque Terre either by bus or boat within a day or two.
Any suggestion are GREATLY appreciated because I wouldn't know where to start otherwise.
Thank You for any reply. :-)
