Why choose a BMW Z4 Roadster for your journey

Opening the roof and driving along the Ligurian coast in a Z4 Roadster is an experience that engages all the senses. The compact size and precise handling make it perfect for navigating the narrow and panoramic roads of the Cinque Terre, while the traction and responsive engine transform every corner into pure driving pleasure.

Every acceleration feels smooth, every change of direction becomes part of the landscape. The sense of freedom is complete: you can stop whenever you like, change your plans and follow the sun until sunset. Renting a BMW for this itinerary means turning a trip into a true experience, where the road becomes as important as the villages you will visit.

A tailored itinerary: villages, sunsets and flavors

La Spezia – The perfect starting point

The journey begins in La Spezia, a seaside city that blends harbor life, hills and authentic local energy. Here you can collect your BMW Z4 and begin at a relaxed pace: a coffee overlooking the port, the roof down and a growing sense of freedom with every kilometer. La Spezia is the ideal starting point for anyone who wants to explore the Cinque Terre without rushing.

Riomaggiore – The first taste of sunset

The first stop is Riomaggiore, a village of colorful houses cascading toward the sea like a painting. In the afternoon the pace slows: a walk through stone alleys, a glass of chilled Vermentino and the sun beginning to slip behind the horizon. Your Z4 waits just above the village, ready to set off again with the same lightness with which you arrived.

Manarola – Aperitif with a view

Continuing along the coastal road, you reach Manarola, one of the most iconic villages of the Cinque Terre. After parking, walk up to the famous “Nessun Dorma”: here an aperitif with fresh basil, focaccia and local platters becomes a moment to remember. The view over the sea and the colorful houses perched on the rocks is one of Italy’s most famous postcards.

Vernazza – Timeless elegance

The road then leads to Vernazza, perhaps the most elegant village along the coast. Cross the center, stop at the small harbor and walk out to the pier. From here the view of the village and the sea is spectacular. Your BMW, parked nearby, seems to blend naturally into the scene: sporty yet refined, discreet yet always present.

Monterosso and Corniglia – The essence of the coast

No tour would be complete without Monterosso al Mare, the liveliest and most seaside-oriented village, with sandy beaches perfect for a swim, and Corniglia, perched on a cliff above the sea, more intimate and less crowded but full of authentic charm. Two different souls of the same land, connected by scenic roads that the Z4 travels with elegance and agility.

The road: the true protagonist of the journey

Beyond the villages, what truly makes the Cinque Terre special is the road itself. Gentle curves, sudden climbs and descents, sea views appearing around every bend: driving here is a constant pleasure.

The BMW Z4 Roadster enhances this experience. Sitting close to the asphalt yet open to the sky, hearing the engine’s sound while breathing the scent of the sea. It is a unique way to experience Liguria, where the journey becomes an essential part of the destination.
