I just went into the Trentalia website to figure out the train from Venice to Cinque Terre for June and it seems there is none now.. a month or so ago there was and now there isn't. How do I get from Venice to Cinque Terre (Vernazza) ???

The summer schedules are not posted yet. Check the day of week you will be traveling on this week's schedule to give you the basic schedule. It may change slightly when the summer schedules are posted, so double check when you are in Venice.

been there done that..
we went through Viareggio...
my sister almost got caught in the train door. it was quite an adventure...

Thanks--just figured it out that the schedules are not posted that far out!! Did just what you said and used a closer date!!

Just did that trip in the other direction last week. We bought most of our train tickets once we got to Italy at a travel agency. Just had to pay for everything in cash, you can use credit card at the train stations. We went from Manarola to La Spezia (10 minute trip) then changed trains in Florence and onto Venice. It was about a 5-6 hour trip. We got a first class ticket for the Florence-Venice leg. We upgraded after we spent some time on second class trains that were very hot and crowded. I also know that we could have gone through Milan but timing wise the Florence connection was better for us.
