Florence to Cinque Terre best transportation

We are traveling from Florence to Monterosso on Sat., June 22 and returning to Florence on Monday, June 24, 2024.

We are traveling to Monterosso on a Saturday and we expect that means more traffic.

Please let us know the best way to get there Saturday morning and how to get back on Monday later afternoon.

Any tips greatly appreciated. There are two of us.

Thank you.

Train. Cars are a PITA in both Florence and the CT. Use the Trenitalia website and app. Remember to use the Italian place names ie: Firenze, not Florence.

Train.
Take one train to LaSpezia, change trains there, then continue on. It'll be you and several thousand doing the same.
