B&B VIVA NAPOLI
Content: Our hotel was situated in the historical center, not far from every main sites. Everything was good, and our hotel host was very friendly. I highly recommend that accommodation.
Via San Gregorio Armeno
Content: Naples, a city that you like or don’t like. We have found the city a lot of charm from the city’s heritage, its architectural richness, the warmth of its inhabitants, its Neapolitan cuisine and the Vesuvius. The first thing we did when we arrived, is a walk through the historical quarter of Naples. Our first stop was San Gregorio Armeno street. This is a charming historic shopping street. Not far from there you walk through the Spaccanapoli. Spaccanapoli is the name of one of the main and liveliest thoroughfares in the historic center of Naples. The name derives from the fact that it sharply divides the city between north and south.
Chiostro di Santa Chiara

Via Toledo
Content: This is the commercial street of Naples. Here we had a quick lunch.
Quartieri Spagnoli
Content: It's certainly, the most authentic part of Naples. Explore that district in the day. It is not recommended passing there by night.
Belvedere San Martino
Content: We decided to have walk to have a panoramic view of the city. So we hiked to the Belvedere san Martino via Naples stairs. The stairways of Naples are ancient pedestrian paths that connect the hills with the center and the coast. Consisting of 414 steps, running along the slope of the Vomero hill, and connects Naples historical center. You will get an amazing view once up there! You can also take the funicular in order to access it more quickly.

Piazza del Plebiscito
Content: It's a large public square in the center of Naples.
Ovo Castle
Content: To end our day we walked along the coast and passed by the Castel dell’Ovo, which is located on the Naples coastline. This is the oldest standing fortification in the city. It has a nice sight with view over the harbor.
Gino e Toto Sorbillo

Day 2 - 15 Jul 2020
Residence Le Terrazze Sorrento
Content: I stayed at Le Terrazze hotel, which is fantastic in terms of price/quality. I really enjoyed the view from our room, the friendly staff, and the hotel facilities. At the reception of the hotel, they also have a big terrace where you can enjoy a sea view and a view over the Vesuvius Vulcano. The hotel is situated in the hills, about 15 min drive from the center of Sorrento, but they have daily shuttles every hour for free! The staff shared with us a lot of tips for restaurants, and activities around. We really recommend you that place.
Sorrento
Content: We stayed in Sorrento for our 5 days on the Amalfi Coast. There are some reasons why we opted for Sorrento. Sorrento is the official starting point of the Amalfi Coast and the easiest town to reach. Sorrento is also much less expensive than the towns around the coast, and you will get more facilities for that price. Get lost in the streets of Sorrento and taste some limoncellos in the local shops.
Villa Comunale di Sorrento
Content: Get lost in Sorrento’s little streets and walk to the Villa Comunale Garden, where you will have a splendid view over the sea and on the Vesuvius.

Bagni Regina Giovanna
Content: Swim in the natural pool of Bagni della Regina Giovanna.
Agriturismo Le Grottelle
Content: La Grotelle, is a farmhouse restaurant. The owner of our hotel recommended us that place. That is in my opinion the best restaurant I have done in Italy. The staff is amazing, and the food is awesome. Almost everything is homemade, and all the fruits and vegetables comes from their garden.
Location: Positano
Day 3 - 16 Jul 2020
Positano
Content: Positano is in my opinion one of the most beautiful villages of the Amalfi Coast. You will need about 2 hours to visit the town. Get lost in the small alleys of Positano and reach the principal beach of Positano

Amalfi
Content: This is another beautiful town of the Amalfi Coast where you can easily spend 2 more hours. It is the largest town along the coast and one of the most popular towns to stay in after Positano. We recommend you to get lost in its little streets.
La Tramontina
Content: If you are looking for a small meal for lunch, we recommend you la Tramontina. It is a typical sandwich shop with local food.
Location: Ravello
Day 4 - 17 Jul 2020
Ravello
Content: Ravello is another little typical town of the coast. It is a tiny village that sits back from the coast, perched at the top of a cliff overlooking the sea. To get there you will pass into the hills of the coast, as it is a bit remote from the main road. I really enjoyed Ravello. It is much less crowded than the famous Amalfi and Positano towns. One of the things to do is to visit the Villa Ruffolo.

Lubrense Boats
Content: We planned a whole day in Capri and decided to do a boat excursion that the hotel recommended us. The company is called Lubrense boat, which we highly recommend. It is a family company, the staff was really kind, and on top of that we had a good explanation about the Capri during our boat trip. After our boat tour, we finally stopped at the little port of Capri, which is called, Marina Piccola for about 4 hours free time. 1 or 2 hours more hours would have been better, because if you planned to go to Anacapri as well 4 hours is a bit of a rush.
