Only if it fits your trip

Is a Cinque Terre day trip from Genoa worth it?: Yes for early starters and shoulder-season days: regional trains reach Monterosso in about an hour and a half for roughly 9 to 15 EUR each way depending on the day, and DIY rail beats packaged tours on price. Skip it if you can only go on a peak summer weekend or want to see all five villages; reports describe midday trains shoulder to shoulder and barely an hour per village.
