Thank you Isabel! This is motivating- my kids are generally fins and have vsiited a lot of places with us with no issues. We will play by year and do things that we all can handle with stress.

Can we base ourself in Naples and still do these day trips easily? We are not able to find decent /reasonable lodging yet in Sorrento and hence checking about Naples as a backup.

Pompeii can be hellishly hot so make sure you have hats, SPF and water. If I go again, I'm taking a little umbrella to give some sun protection.

I stayed in a great place in Sorrento last month, beautiful, friendly and very reasonable. In a great location. Casa Astarita. http://www.casastarita.com I recommend it HIGHLY.

Hi, what do you mean as 'decent/reasonable lodging'? Because Sorrento accommodation are amid the most stunning of Amalfi Coast! Have a look on this http://www.hoteldelfino.com/ which is right on the coast between Sorrento and Massa Lubrense, so very quiet. Phone the staff up and ask them to arrange transfer from Naples for you, they are very kind.

Our budget is $200/night! Hoteldelfino looks good but a little expensive to spent about 1200 for 4 nights! Any other suggestions? Is Naples OK to stay?

Have you looked at an apartment rental for the 4 nights - more space, and perhaps an opportunity to do laundry, too. Naples would be far, I think, with transporting your young children, to parts of the AC, maybe ok for Capril and Pompeii. Pompeii will be a very long and hot day for small children, bring lots of water.

If you cannot find 'decent' lodging in the well-heeled watering hole than it is unlikely you will find it in dicey, unnerving to many Naples where garbage is often piled high everywhere and street crime is always a threat.
