[ilablyth]

Has anyone taken the train from Pisa to Monterosso and back in one day? If so what is the trip like?

It's a long trip for a day, but it can be done. Most of the trains are regionals that take about two hours and make around 14 stops. Some require a change at La Spezia, but it's easy enough to get one without a change.

 

There are also a few intercity trains each day, which take only a little over an hour each way, but the times are not very good for a day trip. These trains make only four stops along the route.

When are you going? My wife and I are planning a day trip from lavorno off the NCL Jade on June 8. We will take a train to La Spezia and connect to local train that goes to all 5 towns of cinque tierra. Also considering renting a car at the port and driving to La Spezia..
