(30min train ride from Napoli) and worked my way to Almafi and then
Sorrento. Compared to Napoli, Salerno is much much clearner and more
laid back. It's also got a seaport for going to the nearby coastal
destinations and a train to Pompei. It's possibly a very good
alternative to Napoli as a base for visiting the nearby attractions.
Planned to use the bus from Salerno to Amalfi, and then from Amalfi to
Sorrento. It would have been at least 3 times cheaper, but I'm glad
the plan failed because I got see some extremely beautiful scenery by
using the ferry instead.
Amalfi was beautiful. Small but it was very pretty. Had my most
expensive gelato here! €5 and it wasn't even that good. Flavor
Limoncello was quite good (refreshing), but Banana wasn't so good
(almost like made by banana extract).
Sorrento was beyond what I expected. Thought Amalfi was the main
course and Sorrento was a side dish. I was all wrong. On some level, I
though Sorrento was more special but you'll have to see it coming on a
ferry. The whole town built on a cliff, or so it seemed to me!
Absolutely amazing view! The water so clear, you can see swimming fish
at the ferry pier. Loved it!
