This is what I expect when I watch a travel vlog, actual footage of the towns etc rather than people talking in a hotel room. So beautiful cannot wait to visit here!
from an italian girl, i love how you depicted this trip, the video is very calming (and aesthetic!) but also useful for whoever wants to go there, like it's pretty realistic, also with the sudden weather change and all. Of course the scenery it's beautiful, i already went there, but you managed to make it even more magical and soothing. Thank you for the wonderful amalfi coast representation! I love your vibe and your channel! Keep it up!

I really enjoyed this video! The moderator's voice is soft, calming, and positive, here! First time travelers should enjoy the different experiences of visiting such gorgeous locations; and here they made the very best out of unexpected weather conditions! Did the sun not shine most of the time? 🌷🍋The impressions were beautiful! It is a great and smart idea to go to a historic part of the world for Spring Breaks! 🏵🌸🌺 Well done, ladies!💐👍 See you, in Capri 2024!🍦🍝🍋🧚♀️ And stay beautiful.🌷🍋
Well done. I loved Sorrento. I stayed there, and then I traveled to Amalfi, Positano, Naples, Pompei. You have a nice voice.
It was such a calming video🤍
Lovely video, thank you! ❤ Going soon and can't wait 😁
Absolutely a treat to watch. I loved the details you mentioned, the way you filmed and your voice was nice and calming. Felt like I was there with you!

can u please clarify how many days total u spent there? im wanting to go to the amalfi coast but also lake como (ppl said just do amalfi or lake como) then like perhaps venice, rome, florence. if i am thinking 10 days what do u think i should do?
@sofmathew

hi! we were there from saturday (arrived midday) until wednesday (traveled in the morning to florence). then we spent wednesday night through saturday morning in florence with a wine tour day trip in between. finally we went to pisa for a couple hours and flew out from there. so our trip was 7 days.
@sofmathew

definitely travel around when you are in italy! especially if you are there for 10 days. with 10 days you can definitely fit in 3 cities if you want to have a chill trip but you can also fit all of that if you want a more fast paced one. i’d recommend choosing amalfi, rome, and florence because there’s a lot to do in all of them.
Im going to the Amalfi coast this summer, do you have any tips for me??
@sofmathew
Жыл бұрын
definitely try and pack light if you can especially if you might have a lot of stairs to climb! we took a carry on each and were struggling on that you can kind of check ahead and see how far you are from the beach to determine how much you might have to climb. the further back your place, the more stairs typically. explore the different cities! there is a bus app you might need if you are taking public transport called unico campaigna or something that you can buy tickets ahead of time.
Did the off season had any affection to your trip? Me and my friends are going next week and we were thinking if there is like lot of places closed etc.
@sofmathew

hi! i definitely think more things were closed than normal tourist season but there was still a lot to do and we were able to do everything that we planned to do i’m pretty sure. the only thing was that it was too cold to swim when we went

hello! question! did you feel safe having your luggage on the bus?
@sofmathew
Жыл бұрын
hi! yes! there was always a few people with their luggage on the bus and there are also overhead compartments you can store up to carry on sizes in. i just recommend trying to get a seat because it’s difficult standing while the bus is on the winding roads and having to manage suitcases at the same time
what was the name of the bus ticket app? :') cant find it

I think you were there at the wrong time of year to experience Sorrento fully. None of the beaches were open from what I could see. You could have gone down to the port and got a boat trip and there are lots of beautiful restaurants. I don't really see any of these towns as having a different demographic. They are all beautiful and full of culture. You do need money though. They are really for weathier travellers.
Doesn't American know the difference between ocean and sea?? Lol
