Explora Trekking Store — Local services in Riomaggiore

As an avid adventurer, I was ecstatic to see this store existed in Manarola. The storefront advertised many activities like tours paragliding, hiking, cooking, amongst others. We decided to stop by and check it out they have a few gear selections too!!! My friend and I were trying to find the trailhead for the Cinque Terre hike because we were lost and she asked the female staff member at the desk. The staff said that they don't provide directions and left it at that. This was not very welcoming at all. Yes, it must be annoying to be constantly asked tourist questions, but that quickly put an end to any business we could have given them. I hope they are friendlier if we go back. You gain business through planting good seeds and by word...

Only possible place to store luggage in Manarola. Unfortunately, the day we went, they weren’t offering the service. I don’t know if they offer it still or not at all. I’d recommend not planning to store it there because it is difficult to try to carry luggage...

They have the option of luggage storage as well, with the prices varying from 1-5€ depending on the number of hours. Quite conveniently located and really helped us avoid carrying around...
