Hi guys need some help..
Id like to do a nice trip with my wifeto italy. Wed love to see rome and venice and it looks like the forums have plenty on that.
My question is about the amalfi coast mainly capri, sorrento, positano etc.
Anyone have experience? Where to stay? How to plan? Etc? I have enough points with most programs.
-
i based myself in sorrento and did day trips. one day pompeii/vesuvious hike, one day capri and one day positano

You're asking a guy that flew 150,000 miles with kids :D
-
I recently spoke to a woman (not Jewish) who had gone there. She said it was extremely expensive, very touristy and the people unfriendly to and quick to take advantage of Americans. She didn't want to recommend a trip there.
The pictures look amazing and I'd really love to see it but why waste a whole trip going somewhere like that when there are other places that are more friendly? You don't want to put in all the effort and come away with a bad taste in mouth.
Just my two cents.

He leaves them with the wife and goes diving for 2 days :D

Truth is we actually did enjoy having Rafi in Hawaii and BA but we also enjoyed leaving him with Bubby and doing Paris, LA, and BA again without him.
Just very different trips of course.

We must have very different kids. We did LA -SF with our 9 month old daughter and said "never again". She decided to get sick in Hollywood on Friday and we had to find a pediatrician to see her.. Then I realized that although we like traveling, she prefers being home (or by relatives). And that is exactly where she goes when we travel.
-
Not really fair to judge that based on one trip where she got sick.
I'd try again.

its pretty much all i know, although we do try to get babysitters when possible

in my defense, that was a recent development on the Australia trip. prior to that, it didnt happen. and i did leave them at a pretty decent resort... (not to take away from my wife for allowing it, but in case people think im nuts)

I don't blame you one bit, I'm just amazed you found the one woman in the world that would go along with that plan without qualms.

(although she got to take a spa day as well...)

Does she enjoy flying?

I've done other shorter ones.
The whole trip revolves around nap time/diaper changes/bored kid, hungry kid, tired kid, yelling in museum kid, trying to get lost kid, tantrumming kid,/ sleeping kid etc. etc.
It is totally not worth it. You can't go anywhere at night for the thirteen hours the kid is sleeping. You need to make hotel arrangements that include separate area for the kid and things to entertain her/him. We took her on a few flights and I felt very sorry for the other passengers although the flight attendants loved her.
Her tantrum on line to get through airport security was such a -spectacularly humiliating- horrible experience it for sure wiped away most of my sins.

so im putting finishing touches on my italy trip with my wife and wanted everyones thoughts..
1) using UA miles to fly US from PHL to VCE non stop in business 55k miles x 2
2) staying at the danielli for 2 nights total 63k spg
3) staying at the porto cervo in sardenia for 4 days/ 3 nights total 105k spg
4) thinking of either 2 nights the hyatt milan using 44k UR or going to rome at the westin using 40k spg
5) the return flight from MXP or FCO isnt available on UA saver miles so il either hold out and wait or book in economy for 55k UA x 2 for nonstop on UA
6) the taxes and fees il cover with with my amex $200 credit
7) the small flights from VCE to OLB and OLB to FCO amount to about $500 which i will be able to cover with my barclay card
thoughts??
-
Nothing to do in mxp, go to fco

Would like to go to Italy for about 2-3 weeks around August 7th.. Im contemplating renting a car and driving along the coast of Italy, and other charming italian cities. Though my thoughts on renting a car is mixed, on one hand id get lazy and not get the entire feel of getting lost in the city, on the other hand it seems like a pleasure not to shlep suitcases of food and clothing and not having to abide by a specific train schedule and being able to find the quaint italian towns by mistake.
-My question is, does it pay to rent a car in Italy?
-Any cities that are a MUST see?
- Would love to see more of Tuscany ( did Florence and its still my favorite vacation spot as of now. )
- what cities besides Rome, venice and Florence would have kosher restaurants?
- any cities in Amalfi coast are a must?
- Am i making a mistake doing this trip for three weeks as i find Italy has a sort of magic to it.
- tickets are very pricey to Europe last minute, i have a nice chunk of amex points is it worthwhile to book my tickets with points, and what would be the best city to fly into? Rome?
If anyone has any Italy info they would like to share that would be fabulous. Thanks in advance
-
i do remember reading that driving along the amalfi coast is a bit dangerous, so be careful

Based on many DDF's, and let me quote Dan on this "Being in Venice and not stay there for Shaboss is a crime" or something like that.. so there you go
-
Been in venice for shabbos was really nice, summer time swarming with tourists. Did Florence was magnificent, charming and a beautiful city
-
capri, climb vesuvious, visit pompeii, positano
-
So far my list is as follows, for those of you who wanted an itinerary ( somewhat)
From Southern Italy up North
Amalfi coast
Positano
Sorento
Capri
Naples
Rome
Tuscany, Florence ( yes again ), Siena
Pisa
Cinque Terre
Portofino
And as we are going from city to city im sure well come accross quaint little cities for the night.
Any other suggestions?
Kosher in any of these cities besides Florence, Rome And Capri?
The thought of carrying 2-3 weeks of food stresses me out ( usually we take frozen meals from meisners caterers and its excellent) its just SO heavy
What is the best airport to fly into from NY and to fly out of from NY?
I have a chunk of Amex points ive never used, is it worthwhile to book this ticket using points? And who can help me with this, as ive never booked a ticket using points and possible upgrading to business class.
Any last minute European hotel websites that are good for booking the day ot the day before?
Where can i rent a car to do this trip? Any special rental codes or companies that i should search for?
Thanks all
-
If this is really kosher, its kinda cool: http://yeahthatskosher.com/2013/08/kosher-in-capri-italy-terrazza-tiberio-guest-review/

I think the OU runs a kosher kitchen but it's only seasonal and for groups. I'm thinking of going to Italy after succos (from Israel) and could also use some ideas for food.

Has anyone driven through Tuscany? We're planning a trip for the beginning of July and would like to spend about 1.5-2 days driving from Rome to Florence through Tuscany. I heard it was highly recommended and that you can find real off-the-beaten-path places to stay for less than €100/night.
Can anyone confirm?

I have 4 days to spend in Europe this summer and was thinking of picking a coastal town in Italy. Where would be the "easiest" place to get to in terms of travel and still being able to enjoy some beautiful beach towns?
-
Just went to the coast.
Gorgeous, would recommend for everyone.
We went to the shul in Naples. You should look for it a while before Shabbos as it is hard to find.

Anyone been to the Tiberio Palace in Capri? The kosher there has been getting great reviews
To answer my own question, its a really great hotel in a beautiful setting (views to kill). Location is right off the main square.
As hotels with in-house kosher go, its definitely the best option in Europe.
The Kosher food is 6/10 but they do a great job making sure you are accommodated and the service is really over the top by European standards.
There were approx 10-15 frum couples there so we barely had a minyan (no Sefer Torah either) and they said that most weeks there are not enough people for a minyan

I stayed there last year. The food is underwhelming, but much better than schlepping along tuna cans. There is no dairy, so breakfast is parve. I'll post some pictures later if I could.
The hotel is very nice, though if you're used to getting everything with points, it may be difficult to fork out the amount they charge. Also, book well in advance, as they fill up pretty fast.
Overall, Capri is a really beautiful place to visit.
-
Yeah. I've been there. I would love to go back but those prices are crazy.

Anyone Know price for breakfast at Tiberio Palace in Capri?
Trying to figure out if it's worth booking the room only rate and paying for breakfast - and if that is even an option?.. Google not helping me here...
Also - anyone thats been have any pics of what they serve?

I was in Amalfi Coast twice and ordered kosher food from Avigail Kosher Catering. It was great!
You can find them online and contact them by email. They usually reply after a few days so it is a good thing to contact them well in advance.

If your asking specifically about the kosher restaurant/menu, I believe its open only for lunch (12-2) and dinner (7-9)

When I was there a couple of years ago there was def kosher breakfast but it was pretty weak (as is most of the food there) and only for guests. Try emailing them and see if that has changed at all.

I'm heading to Italy Aug 9th, flying EWR-VCE, spending Friday & Shabbos in Venice, Sun-Mon in Capri, and plan on taking a driver up the Amalfi coast and through Positano & Sorento on Tuesday, dropping us off in Naples (early Morning Flight on Wednesday). Does anyone know of any driver's they can recommend for Tuesday? Would like to stop at the towns etc..

Capri in summer is a nightmare. So many tourists.

Capri is fine year round. The tourist leave with the last ferry and Capri remains relatively empty and charming.

+1. Spend the day touring the surrounding mainland and enjoy the evenings there. You should of course leave a day to explore the island itself.

There is no kosher food in Amalfi. Capri is a 30 min boat ride away and has a kosher restaurant at the Tiberio palace hotel.

https://www.capritiberiopalace.it/en/kosher-restaurant-capri.php
Yes, great simple and tasty food. Nice wine selection. If you go to Capri you must stay at least 1 night preferably 2+. The island gets packed with tourists during the day and quiets down at night and is really beautiful to walk around. Definitely do a boat tour around the island and visit all the caves and sights. Rent a scooter and go to the blue grotto for sunset and a swim in the cave. If your staying overnight that's the best way to see the blue grotto. During the day they don't let you swim unless you come on a tour and the wait is long usually.

If you're at all interested in Florence, it's on the way to Rome.

Is there anywhere cheaper to stay in Capri than the hoyle with the kosher? 500 euro per night is a little extreme.

Book your ferry to capri in advance and your train tickets. Similar to airline fares they all go up as it gets closer.
Hotel Della Piccola Marina , charming hotel in Capri with nice pool and good location. Take a boat tour around the island in the morning and rent scooters one day, go to the blue grotto after it closes to boats, and swim in it. Have a beer after and enjoy the view! Worth renting the scooters for 24 hours.

Define acceptable. Neither are in the cRc list or kosher quest. They are smaller.

I visited Terra Di Seta and enjoyed it. Hearing the routine used to make wine was interesting and the Mrs, who ran the tour, was great.
Driving there was BEAUTIFUL! But get good directions there; we got badly lost GPSing to the wrong place.

Cantina Guliano serves food as well.

Cantina giuliano is an amazing experience and everything is hand made. Even the cheeses and fish are personally made/caught by the owner. He was also knowledgable in all the halachos regarding wine making and kitchen standards etc.

I will be staying in the alps in Italy or France for a week in August after that I have another 4-5 nights (over shabbos) until my flight out of Milan
Traveling with kids ages 3-9
What city would be a good option to stay in Italy that has shabbos with food nearby and hotel or apartment near shul
Going with kids so Venice is probably not a option as it will be overrun
Rome might be a option, but it's a bit far from Milan and from alps
Any ideas?

It's about 5-10 min from the train station to the ferry. There will be tons of taxis waiting at the train station. You can find many boats around the Capri port.
