Manarola vs Riomaggiore? - Rick Steves Travel Forum
WEB09/08/15 08:11 AM. 1241 posts. Stay in either Riomaggiore or Manarola, whichever town you can get a nice room. Try for a sea view. Volastra is farther away uphill. Whichever town you choose, the train can get you to the next one in 5 minutes, so you can spend time in both. Posted by Laura.
Manarola or Vernazza - Rick Steves Travel Forum
WEBMay 1, 2018 · Yep, I would choose Manarola too. There is a path to walk in the evenings above and around the harbor area. The town is more spread out than Vernazza, so you feel more breathing room even if they are similar in size. And the rock jumping, if you're into that ... Posted by Laurel.

Manarola or Monterroso - Rick Steves Travel Forum
WEBJun 18, 2013 · Be sure to eat at Trattoria da Billy in Manarola and Il Pirata in Vernazza. Marina Picola in Manarola is also very good. And you will find plenty of places to have that nightcap! For hiking, in Manarola you can take a little bus up to access the higher trails, which are magnificent. I think it leaves Manarola at 09:00 or 09:30.

Vernazza vs. Manarola - Rick Steves Travel Forum
WEBNov 7, 2009 · Joe, we stayed in Manarola last september, after visiting every towns, it would still be my favorite. It also depends when you are going, low or high season.
