TV Rick Steves' Europe - Season 2 Episode 5 : Cinque Terre: Italy's Hidden Riviera Rick Steves' Europe - Season 2 Episode 5 : Cinque Terre: Italy's Hidden Riviera 8.6/10 by 8 users In these five idyllic port towns, we sample village life: fishing for anchovies at midnight, savoring the best pesto, picking grapes, and cheering cliff divers as we hike the "walkway of love." Each pastel town is a delight, but my favorite is Vernazza - where Giovanni makes pasta and Granelli sells porcini mushrooms at the tiny street market. We side-trip to Carrara's historic quarries where Michelangelo selected his marble, then return to Vernazza to stroll its only street (with the entire village) as the sun sets.
