Visiting the Cinque Terre with children takes a bit of planning: favor trains and boats to travel between villages rather than winding roads, pick child-friendly stops (beaches, squares and gardens) and plan short, shaded walks with frequent breaks; bring a lightweight stroller, water, closed-toe shoes and sun protection, book well-located accommodation and avoid peak hours to enjoy the colorful views calmly. Also plan gelato breaks and playful activities so kids stay enthusiastic.
