By car:

Driving on the freeway from the north you exit at "Levanto-Carrodano"; coming from south or from Parma you leave the freeway at La Spezia and follow the signs "Cinque Terre". The road to Vernazza is tiny and windy.

Since Vernazza is a traffic-free zone you will have to park in a non-guarded car park, about 1km from the town center. From there you can use a shuttle bus to come to the village.
This shuttle bus runs almost every 20 minutes.

At the car park, there is a fee for parking between the hours of 8:00 am to 8:00 pm (20:00), everyday from March to November.

The price this year is:

1 hour - Euro 1.50;
1 day - Euro 12,00;
1 week - Euro 70,00
