Which group tour from Lucca to Cinque Terre would you recommend? Or best to do solo by train??
It's not difficult to do by train and more economical, unless you just want the camaraderie of a tour. See schedules on the Trenitalia website.
If you're up for some adventure, I'd totally recommend doing the Cinque Terre trip solo by train. It's super easy and gives you the freedom to explore at your own pace. Plus, you can soak in all the scenic views without any rush. Have a blast!
