Amalfi - Positano - Sorrento

We could write a travel book on our experiences with Italian public transport! It's intriguing to say the least! There's a system, sort of ... People run around trying to find where to buy tickets and, as happened this morning, there was only one man selling bus tickets and he was sitting on a stone wall with no sign to say he was the ticket seller!
We got our tickets by pure chance and boarded the bus to Sorrento. We had 2 1/4 hrs of white knuckles and being totally absorbed by the exploits of the bus drivers and all of the other motorists weaving in and around each other!
We disembarked at Sorrento and found a delightful restaurant to have one of the best meals we've had since arriving in Europe (and reasonably priced too!)
Back to the bus station for a 40 min wait for the return trip to Amalfi. Once again, people were herded into the bus like sheep and told to 'move back'. It was total entertainment. We were pleased to be seated each way - it would have been a nightmare otherwise!
We enjoyed another meal on the rooftop of the Hotel away from the crowds and in the peace and quiet - bliss!
We are packed ready for our ferry ride and 2 x train trips where we will end up in Caserta for 1 night.
We've had a wonderful 3 days in Amalfi but we are keen to get back on the bikes in the Puglia region this Sunday.Leia mais
