Lemon Walk, Minori to Maiori - AND - Liberation Day in Siena

Hello Fellow Travelers!

I am going to Italy mid-April. I have RS Italy travel guide, but it does not contain answers to these two questions:

1) I'm trying to get information about the Lemon Walk (Minori to Maiori on the AC). Have any of you done this? Can you give me any information about it and what you think it might be like mid-April. We are day-tripping from Sorrento and hope to get to Ravello on the same day. (And hoping the ferries will be running!)

2) We will be doing a day trip from Florence on Liberation Day, Thursday April 25th. I'd like to go to Siena but am wondering what it might be like on this day. If it will be too crowded, do you have suggestions for an alternate city? We will have already spent 4 nights near Montepulciano, so we're not interested in more wine country.

Thanks in advance!! You have been so helpful in getting me this far :)

Hi Patty :)

My wife and I did the Lemon walk in July. It was HOT. But we LOVED it and would do it again.
Have fun! :)

April should be lovely for the hike. Note you can walk on all the way to Ravello, then down to Atrani/Amalfi to catch a ferry or bus back. You might look for a different hike though, since you are coming all the way from Sorrento.
