We will arrive in Naples miami beach vacation rentals from US on April 19. My husband has to attend a meeting miami beach vacation rentals in Paestum on Sunday April 28, and it will be over in late afternoon. We will stay there on Sat. night before and Sun night as well. Our flight departs Naples at 12:50 on Tuesday April 30. So the question is, will we have enough time to get to the airport on Tuesday morning, or should miami beach vacation rentals we plan to be in Naples by Monday so we aren't exhausted when we leave. Also not sure where to make our base as we don't like to move around a lot and will already have these 2 places. Is Sorrento the most logical, central place? A friend has recommended Minori since they loved it there. We don't plan to visit Vesuvius or Pompeii but do hope to go to Capri for at least a day (not sure about moving for another overnight place). Or, possibly Ischia. Thanks for your suggestions; love this forum!
Personally, I hate trying to fly out of a city if I haven't reached it the day before. It has nothing to do with exhaustion. I just think there is WAY too much that can go wrong to rely on getting to the airport on time.
I think you are asking where, in addition to Naples and Paestum, you should stay. If so, that depends (I think) on what you want to do while in the area and how long you plan to say in Naples. Assuming the weather is on your side, I would think you could visit Capri from Naples or Sorrento or Positano or Amalfi. My impression (which could be wrong) is that people who choose to base in Sorrento are doing so because they want to use it as a base for the entire region. If you want to spend a few days in Naples and are looking for a place from which to explore the Amalfi Coast in particular, Amalfi or Positano or Minori could be reasonable bases depending on your interests.
Guess my original post was a bit confusing and I apologize. kja, you are correct. We don't really want to stay in Naples any longer than necessary.....arrive and go directly someplace, and be back to stay one night before departure. Is 1 night in Capri sufficient or should we stay for 2? We just don't like to move too often. Possibility now:
I assume you will be picking up a car (you would need it to get to Paestum as public transport would not be easy). I would take a ferry from Capri to Sorrento and pick up the car. If ferries are running from Capri to Salerno at that time (not sure they will be), they might be an option for picking up the car.
While there is a train to the Paestum area, it's not all that close and would be a trek (with luggage!). It's a tiny station (really just a stop) and no services (not even a ticket window). The bus (CTSP)drops you closer to the ruins and sort of meanders through the area before heading back to Salerno. It might get you close to your hotel, but not if it's near the beach.
miami beach vacation rentals And if it's not too much like madness, you might consider coming over to Ischia first (plentiful connections from Naples), to move on to Capri (direct miami beach vacation rentals hydrofoil from here each morning, less than an hour) and then go to Vietri for a day or two - prior to a very easy run to Paestum.
We based in Sorrento for about a week with car, except took the train to Herculaneum and we wish we would have taken the train to Pompeii as traffic was horrible. If either of you is into driving, then the Amalfi Coast is a thrilling drive. We easily drove Sorrento to Paestum and back in one day, with a stop for lunch in Amalfi. I'd say one nite in Capri is enough.
