Pompeii's Forum. Photo kindness of Brad Mirakian		From the bay of Naples to the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum - for our clients we will share the pro and cons of both locations as places to visit and enjoy.  For families with children Pompeii has great adventures as kids delight in seeing the ovens, running and climbing in the amphitheatre and for teenagers the brothel is always a highlight.
Don’t miss the Museo Nazionale in Naples, one of the best archaeological Museums in the world, especially painting and mosaic rooms, the huge Farnese Bull and Farnese Hercules come from the baths of Caracalla in Rome and much of the collection comes from the ruins in Pompeii and Herculaneum. Henri and I often stay in our favorite Hotel in Sorrento, with a glorious view of the Bay from our large terrace and in Pompeii where we have a fine hotel with free parking!  From both locations we reach Naples and the Amalfi coast easily.
The town of Capri from Mt. Solaris Photo kindness of Brad Mirakian		If you wish to go to Capri then staying in Sorrento is a positive as the ferry leaves often from the docks. Another more undiscovered island is Procida full of orange and lemon groves and like its sister islands of Ischia and Capri composed of volcanic rock.
Amalfi Coast from Above Photo kindness of Brad Mirakian		If you wish to stay on the Amalfi coast do consider Ravello-the lemon trees and vineyards can be seen from many cafes where a glass of white wine enhances people watching. In summer there are music concerts along the coast and you can do as we do and do half the coast per day. Oh such beauty, the entire coast is a treasure and not to be done in one day- believe us! We like to stay for two or three days and take the boat from Positano to Amalfi (which does have a public beach) and on a second day drive (or take the bus) to Ravello.

We can advise you also on other boat adventure from Positano that takes you both to the Emerald grotto and to the nearby islands, Li galli, and Nerano for a little swimming.

Off season is a delight until early November!
