ITALY Readers's Tips - I ws in Italy for close to 3 weeks last May and, in my view, I'd stay in Positano and take a day trip or stay one night in Capri.apri was nice and the Gardens there (can't remember the name are lovely.ut it is filled with tourists during the day so staying overnight would give you a quieter impression of the place. still prefer Positano though.lso, I wouldn't take the tours of the Grotto (Blue andamp; Green.'ve seen oceans, caves and rocks and that's really all it is.

L., As dilemmas go, not a bad one to have.Unless you are packing light, I echo the sentiments of Keliza and would likely make Capri a daytrip.ry to make it a clear day though and be sure to take the short bus ride to Anacapri and catch the lift up to the the top of Monte Solaro where you will be rewarded with outrageous views.If you are so inclined, there are wonderful walking/hiking options from the top down and all over the island and throughout the region as well. Add this to the mix..schia..e spa island Hotel Europa run by Germans close to a little town with shopping, beaches and a wonderful castle just a short walk over a bridge in the water.he pool is filled daily with the healing waters and the two or three night package usually includes a full body massage on the upper deck overlooking water and mountains.rarely will you run into other Americans.ou can take the ferry to Capri for the day as well.If you rent a moped while on Ischa you can take it to Capri

I would base in Positano and do a day trip to Capri. I found Capri to be the usual tourist trap with everything from coffee to accommodation being seriously inflated in . The accommodation in Positano is very good and much better value.ne base will also save the checkin/checkout drama that it always is
