Christmas in the Cinque Terre 2018. Lovely hotel; great bedroom with large balcony overlooking the gardens, the sea, and with a view across to Santa Marguerita Ligure. Excellent breakfasts. Mostly excellent evening meals with fish each evening. Great itinerary. Made the most of all opportunities to explore in my own way, not in a large group. Downside: 40 people in total is not my type of holiday. Required by the Tour Manager to sit on the same table for 8 each meal time so very limited opportunity to socialise across the whole group. Treated like someone with dementia - being given the same information (not always correct information) at least 5 times.
