ferry from napoli to sorrento in october 21

We are 2 families - one : 2 adults and 2 children (18,21) and other family: 2 adults with a six year old child who shall be going overland from Sicily to Amalfi Coast in early July 2021. We were considering driving to Messina from Raguza area, take the ferry and drive to Maratea and stop overnight. The next day we shall drive to Sorrento and stay there for a few days. This was our draft itinerary so far.:

DAY 1 :

Drive to Messina - Ferry to Villa San Giovanni, Drive to Maratea and stay Maratea

DAY 2 :

Drive and stop to visit Salerno, then Vietri sul mare, Cetara and finally Sorrento and

stay at Sorrento (accommodation for next few days)

DAY 3 :

Drive and stop to visit Positano and then Praiano and see town centres. Return Sorrento

DAY 4 :

Drive and stop to visit Ravello and Amalfi and see town centres. Return Sorrento

DAY 5 :

Visit Sorrento Centre and Drive to Napoli or Salerno to catch Ferry to Palermo or Messina in the evening- overnight stay on the ferry

DAY 6 :

Arrive Palermo or Messina - depending on the ferry trip and availability. Spend a day in Sicily and end of trip.

Any suggestions please re entire itinerary. Not sure whether we should stop in Maratea or somewhere close - not to have a long way driving and whether to base ourselves at Sorrento. We are also undecided whether to catch the Ferry To Palermo or to Messina?

Please advise

First, i should mention that i'm somewhat ADHD when on vacation so i don't like to stay in one place too long but would rather look, absorb, take some pics and keep moving along. With that said i'm very active and walking is certainly ok with me. I would be taking trains mostly . I have the following thus far:

1) Arrive Venice

2)Venice

3)Venice

4)Venice to Bologna

5)Bologna to Florence

6)Florence

7)Florence to Rome ( I've already been to Rome previously but will pick up my fiancé here)

8)Rome to Naples then Ferry to Ischia

9)Ischia

10)Ferry to Capri

12)Ferry to Positano

14)Positano

15)Positano

16)Sorrento

17)Sorrento to Naples Depart home

Thanks for any suggestions and advice. Was wanting to hike around Cinque Terre for the day at some point but was unsure if it was worth the effort since the train takes a long time to get there. Thanks

We are traveling to Trapini October 3rd. We had planned on on only 3 nights with only 2 full days.

From there we are traveling to Sorrento for 3 nights. We have been to Sorrento before but not Trapani or that area. We could easily switch to 4 nights in Trapani and 2 in Sorrento . Should we ?

Also what day trips should we include from Trapani? We considered Erice for sure and then either Segesta, Favignana Mazia or Mazara del vallo. We do not plan a car , but could consider it (we're nervous about local traffic nuances )

Thank you for any help. Brent

We're considering a trip to Naples, then over to Sorrento/Positano/Amalfi before heading to San Cipriano Picentino for a night. SCP is my ancestral home. We're thinking ferry or train from Naples to Sorrento, then bus around the AC as needed and staying in different areas for a night or two.

What's the best way to get to the village of SCP outside of Salerno? Are taxis or Uber/Lyft options?

Hello,

I am aware that ferry & boat is the only means of reaching capri and back, would you know what the best route is and what time is the latest ferry going back to the mainland? We will most likely be staying in Positano or Sorrento. We would love to have dinner in Capri but unsure if this is possible with the Ferry schedule? If there are late ferrys returning around 10pm, this would be perfect.

Appreciate any help I can get on this matter.

Thank you!

Going to Amalfi Coast last week October/first week November (depending on Covid situation). Thought about day trip to capri (from Sorrento) or due to low season rates, spending a night or two there. Any recommendations? Will restaurants, stores, hotels be open?

I have found the timetables for 2021 but do they run year around? Will be visiting 1st couple of weeks in October.

If we arrive from Naples by ferry, where is the closest location to reserve a car rental?

We will be heading right out and staying in Palermo on our return.

Thanks!

I am planning a trip for late September or early October 2022 and am wondering if the hotel swimming pools are generally in operation at that time. I have seen only one hotel wesite that specifically says that the pool is open only through September 15. Others are silent on the issue. What have TA visitors experienced that time of year?

Thank you.

I am planning a trip for next May. Flying into Naples and staying 3 days, ferry to Capri for 2-3 days, Positano and/or Amalfi for 2-3 days then to Sorrento for 2 days. Is this a good itinerary or should I do the opposite of going to Sorrento first and Capri last. Will not be renting a car but doing ferriesor private drivers. I appreciate any thoughts or tips! Thanks so much
