Otherwise, stay in Sorrento or the area nearby and make your way to Naples at the end, a day or two before your flight depending on how much time you want to spend in the city itself. Good luck with the planning! I am planning naples, capri for a day, and the rest of the time in Almafi.
Would you recommend taking the train to Rome for a few days, I don't want to get bored in Almafi but I also do not want to feel rushed. Hi Chelsea, with days, you could definitely include Rome in your itinerary. It really depends on your interests. There's plenty to see and do in Naples, the Amalfi Coast, and the nearby islands, so you won't get bored.
But if you want to make the most of your trip and see more places, then Rome is an excellent choice. Plan at least days for Rome to enjoy it! Have a great trip! Had great time there in with the festival of Saint Andrea.
Hi DJ, unfortunately, I can't help you with this. It's also practically impossible to say how anything will be in a few months from now - the situation and the rules all over Europe are still changing almost daily. Travelling solo for 7 or 8 days. Will it be easy for Me to get around without a car and any more suggestions for my trip?
First time in Italy. Hi Karen, if you only have days in Italy, you'll likely focus on the biggest cities and in that case, you can visit most places by public transport. Train connections between the main cities and bigger towns in Italy are good. It's really hard to suggest much else not knowing what your interests are. You can spend a week at the Amalfi Coast alone or you can see different cities in that time if you are ok with rushing from one place to another just to 'see it all'.
With 7 days, you could spend 3 days in Rome and the rest of the time at the Amalfi Coast and I'm sure you'll have a great time. Or you can start in Venice for a day, then go to Milan, then Florence, then visit Cinque Terre from there by taking a tour, then spend at least 2 days in Rome, and potentially just take a day tour to the Amalfi Coast.
There are really endless possibilities on how to spend one week in Italy and whatever you choose, you'll want to come back for more. So if you can, try to plan at least two weeks for just the most famous places.
Good luck! We may have to wait till next year because of travel restrictions this year. But we have 3 weeks November 15th - December 6th and were planning on flying into Naples and traveling along the Amalfi Coast for about 5 - 7 days. I keep reading that a lot is closed this time of year.
Is it worth visiting this late in the season? Hi Kelley, it's really hard to say how this fall will be, but I think that travel will be possible by that time.
On the other hand, I also understand if you want to postpone because the uncertainty is big at the moment. As for the Amalfi Coast in November, I really don't know what to say. I guess it all depends on what your expectations are. It can be nice to visit busy places in the offseason, but I also know that not everybody likes that. Yes, there will be some business closed and boat tours probably won't run that time of the year. But locals still live there, year-round, so you can get around and visit most places just as in the high season.
As for the weather, you'll probably get quite some rain in November, but that's difficult to say. I think that days might be a bit too much for the Amalfi Coast that time of the year. Maybe plan one day for Naples, one for Pompeii, and extra days for the coastal areas.
But it also depends on your interests, of course. A hilltop garden paradise, Ravello is famous for its music festival and incomparably swish hotels. Founded in the 5th century as a sanctuary from barbarian invaders fresh from sacking Rome, this lofty Amalfi town was built, in contrast to other Amalfi settlements, up on a hill rather than down on the coast.
The ruins of Pompeii are a veritable time machine, hurling visitors back to the time of emperors and Latin chatter. Here, time remains paused at 79 AD, the city's frescoed homes, businesses and baths still waiting for their occupants to return. Few archaeological sites offer such an intimate connection to the past, and few are as deeply haunting and evocative. Here's a seasonal breakdown of what it's like to visit the Amalfi Coast in each season.
Spring is wonderful in this region, and swaths of bright wildflowers dot the landscape. June generally delivers summer heat without the August crowds and traffic. It's a great time for cultural events, but high summer sees narrow coastal roads clogged, soaring temperatures and the occasional frayed temper.
You can find decent deals on accommodations in fall after school starts and many people are back to work. It's a great time for hiking and swimming, and the weather and water remain pleasantly temperate. Bountiful seasonal produce includes mushrooms, black truffles and chestnuts. There are countless amazing stops to make along the Amalfi Coast, from Positano , to Praiano , to Castiglione.
Rather than trying to tick as many of them off as possible, however, I have a different recommendation: Focus on moving forward instead of being in one place. Well, except for when you want to take pictures—definitely pull over for that! I never miss a stop Ravello —and not just because of how huge the lemons on all the trees are.
Rather, I love the bitter shock of being offered a glass not of lemonade, but lemon juice. My advice to you, besides not believing the negative hype, is to spend at least one night in the city, apart from visiting Pompeii or Herculaneum. Stroll around Centro Storico , descend into the catacombs of Fontanelle Cemetery or simply watch the sunset behind Vesuvio from Vomero viewpoint. Hotel Belair : With sea views from every room in the hotel, Belair looking out on to the Bay of Naples is a genuine experience.
Spa, restaurant, bar, and pool, everything is there for the comfort of its guests. Check out: The best things to do in Sorrento. You might also like my post on where to stay in the Amalfi Coast. Sorrento is beautiful, but now get ready for more dramatic views as the cliffs get higher and the colors get more intense.
Take a bus from Sorrento or drive, if you are confident in driving on windy roads and start your second day with a beautiful hike on the Path of the Gods. It is 5 miles long, starting in Agerola, but of course, you can choose to walk it for any length.
It is an easy path- starting from Agerola you will be going down the whole time, and there are benches along the way — and good even for children and older ones. Many legends surround this beautiful road, which was believed to be threaded by Greek divinities.
The views are spectacular, as you are surrounded by green and overlooking the transparent sea. Near the Vallone Porto, not far from the end, you will also see a waterfall and a canyon. Positano is small and can be seen in just over an hour, but it is considered the highlight of the Amalfi coast. The setting is simply magical, the way the town is vertically built on the precipice, the way the colorful homes and churches are framed by blooming flowers, and of course the water surrounding it all.
By hiking in the morning and arriving in Positano in the afternoon you get to relax in this stunning setting and can enjoy the sunset here. Get Your Guide is a great company to book your tours and tickets. Pompeii and Vesuvius Full-Day Tour from Amalfi Coast enjoy a guided visit to the archaeological site of Pompeii and then a walking tour of the Vesuvius crater.
Day Cruise to Capri from the Amalfi Coast discover the beauty of Capri by land and water on this day cruise. Relaxing Full-Day Cruise Trip Along the Amalfi Coast enjoy a relaxing cruise along the Amalfi Coast, spend free time exploring Positano and Amalfi, and get into the water at 4 different snorkeling and swimming stops.
On the 3 rd day, continue exploring the Amalfi coast by seeing 2 of the main towns: Amalfi, and Ravello. Amalfi is the biggest town on the coast, easy to walk it is mostly flat! The main square flaunts a beautiful cathedral, the Duomo di Amalfi, built in with mosaics in the typical Amalfi colors — yellow and green. Inside the cathedral, there is the Chiostro del Paradiso , which features Moorish architecture and gardens.
There are many boat tours offered in the summer to see the coast from the sea- which is breathtaking- and most allow you to jump in the water.
If you want to get an overlook, or you are not going in the summer, you can see each town in half a day. Ravello has two main landmarks: Villa Rufolo and Palazzo Cimbrione, two medieval palaces and gardens with Arabic architecture.
