Hi Everyone,
I'm wrapping up plans for a trip to Italy in July 2025 for our family of 5 - Kids ages will be 15, 12, and 12 at the time of travel.
Below is my rough itinerary for this trip. I'd love any thoughts you have on if it's doable (and enjoyable) given the amount of time and transfers to different areas. We're planning for a 16 day trip, including flights.
Day 1: Flight leaves Boston in the evening
Day 2: Land in Milan -- Arrange a private car to Lake Como (staying in an AirBNB in Azzano, Tremezzina)
Day 3: Lake Como
Day 4: Day trip to Lugano, Switzerland
Day 5: Lake Como
Day 6: Lake Como
Day 7: Private car to Milan train station, Take Train to Rome
Day 8: Rome
Day 9: Rome
Day 10: Rome
Day 11: Train or car to Amalfi Coast (staying in an AirBNB in Scala, right near Ravello)
Day 12: Amalfi Coast
Day 13: Day trip to Pompeii
Day 14: Amalfi Coast
Day 15: Travel back to Rome
Day 16: Flight from Rome to Boston
Any tips or suggestions? Do you think the travel from Lake Como all the way to Rome / Amalfi Coast will be more trouble than it's worth?
Any advice you have is greatly appreciated!
