Sorrento and driving the Amalfi coast

We met our driver Francesco and guide Rosa outside the hotel at 8:30 AM to drive from Sorrento to Positano, Amalfi, and ending up at Ravello. This drive from start to finish should have taken about two hours. Keep in mind, this is actually the start of busy season so it’s still relatively quiet. We got to Positano in normal time, and it’s super cute but just loaded with tourist shops and tourists. We did touch the Mediterranean so that’s a first. And we hopped back in the car to drive to Amalfi, which instead of taking 20 minutes, took 2 1/2 hours for no good reason. So we skipped getting out in Amalfi and drove on to Ravello, where we had some tickets to see a villa and we had lunch. Lunch and Lemoncello spritz were likely the highlight of the trip because lunch was lemon ravioli. YUM. The trip Back was through the mountains as we opted to not return to Amalfi. The one and a half hour drive then took 2 1/2 hours for no good reason. We rolled into Sorrento and our hotel at about 7:30 PM. Reservations at Baigni Delfino at 830 originally seems way too late but the timing worked perfectly. This meal was possibly the best so far !Read more
