We are cruising from Civitavecchia and want to start our trip with 5 nights in Monterosso. I'm trying to find the easiest and fastest way. Based on info I got on message boards, it looks like I fly into Pisa and take the train to Monterosso, about 1hr and 15 mins. Then I would go from Monterosso to Civitavecchia by train and that is about 4 1/2hrs.

This is September 2018. I just found flights, and I can fly into Pisa or Genoa (Milan is too long of a train ride, being 3+ hrs) My question is what if I fly into Genoa? Is the train station close by and how long is the train?

Thanks for any advise.

My answer would be the same as the last time you asked:
