We had planned to visit the Cinque Terre and our niece had told us that Levanto was a nice place to base ourselves and for making day trips to the villages. The town of Levanto is well worth a visit - it is very pretty and has a lovely beach.
We spent most of one day in the town just wandering around and taking photos. There are some interesting buildings and we were fascinated by all the trompe l'oeil paintwork on the houses.
There were a couple of really good restaurants there and the usual shops that a resort town would have but it did not have the tacky feel to it that some resorts can have. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to go back. |

jimcanty Thu Aug 6, 2009 21:12 UTC This seems to be a standard practice. This happened to me in the Riomaggiore train station. Exact same set of circumstances. I just looked at the guy and said I gave you a 20. He didn't bat an eye and slid the hidden 5 euro note to me. | craic Tue Nov 16, 2004 11:03 UTC Now I want to go to Levanto. | lunarbelle Thu May 27, 2004 08:31 UTC Sounds like a beautiful spot for an Italian summer holiday Jane. An excellent restaurant tip for sure. Thanks! | utttz Fri Oct 3, 2003 11:52 UTC as usual restaurant as the first tip! |
