Italy-Florence&Naples/Amalfi--Best Itinerary?
Hi-looking for advice on how to plan a 10 day trip from DC to Florence then travel down to Naples and Amalfi coast. Is this too ambitious? Should we book a tour or try to do it ourselves? We want to concentrate on those 2 areas. Thanks for any advice. PS- 6 people are traveling. Thanks!

When are you traveling?
Unfortunately I don;t think you can get direct flights - but flying into Pisa and out of Naples might be easier. And I would train between Florence and Naples - and then get a car to take you to your hotel on the Coast. (Unless you are early or late in the season and want to have car.)

Is your total travel time 10 days, really only 8 on the ground? It might be better to fly into Pisa and out of Naples, but you would probably have layovers. Can you get non-stop to Rome from DC?
How does this look?
Day 1 Depart DC
Day 2 Arrive Rome, train to Florence - sleep in Florence
Day 3 Florence
Day 4 Florence (Day trip?)
Day 5 Florence
Day 6 Train to Naples, bus/train/driver to Sorrento - Sleep in Sorrento
Day 7 Sorrento (Amalfi Coast - Positano, Amalfi, etc)
Day 8 Sorrento (Capri?)
Day 9 Train to Pompeii, Stash luggage, visit Pompeii, train to Rome - Sleep in Rome
Day 10 depart Rome

Looking for hotel suggestions for hotels in: Venice, Florence, Rome & Sorrento. Moderately priced, well-situated.
Doesn't have to be 5-star, but not bare bones either, as this is for an anniversary trip.
