honeymoon advice
 

My wife and I are trying to plan our honeymoon to italy for two weeks from april 19-may 2 (ish). We would love to do tuscany and amalfi coast...and are unsure where to start! Any advice--flights, hotels, travel tips, transportation within italy, restuarants??
Thanks so much!

Hi J,

>...are unsure where to start! <

First look up your destinations under "Destinations".

Second go to the library and get out some travel books.

Third try www.venere.com for hotels and www.tripadvisor.com for reviews.

After you have a draft itinerary and some hotel ideas, come back and we will help you improve your plan.

You can check train schedules in Italy at www.trenitalia.com

We spent a week on the Amalfi Coast in mid- to late- May last year and the weather was lovely, however it was not nearly warm enough to swim and we were told that it had rained a lot the few weeks before we arrived. Of course the weather is different every year, but don't go with your heart set on swimming in late April...

jhm2,
See http://www.fodors.com/forums/threads...p;tid=34416016 for ideas.

We've been in Sorrento a couple of times in late May and it was plenty warm enough to swim in the hotel pool (the beaches there are very rocky - not really for swimming from). But we're used to the North Atlantic - and some folks from FL thought it was too cold to swim (although the northern europeans were happy).

Even if you can;t swim, there are plenty of things to do in the area - it's still beautiful and worth the time.
