Italian Honeymoon

I am looking into a 10-12 day honeymoon in Italy. My fiance and I want to do some sightseeing and some relaxing. I was thinking Rome and the Amalfi Coast or something along those lines. Any ideas? Suggestions?

Hmm some places I'm interested in are Capri, Florence, Venice, and Tuscany. Capri looks gorgeous. I'm sure that would be a great place to relax.

We did a precruise tour of Rome last summer. We flew into Rome and stayed 2 days. I have an amazing tour guide for you to use.They picked us up at our hotel and took us from place to place. I know we would not have been able to see as much as we did. He was so knowledgeable. We did a seperate day tour of the Vatican. If you want the name of the company, fm me. They will give you a price on line. They were worth every penny!

We then left Roma and took a train to Lucca and Florence. If you are going to travel by train, be very very careful! Lots of gypsies looking for travelers who are not paying attention. I read on other boards about these scam artists.Being a New Yorker, I didn't think we had to worry. We had to watch everyone. We were even followed onto a train. When we got off the train in Florence, the gypsies were waiting on the platform. So just be careful!

Capri is outrageous!!! Also, you can take a ferry out of Naples to Sicily. It is GORGEOUS! I stayed at a resort outside of Taormina called Caesar's Palace. We did beach days, sightseeing in Taormina, and went an old vineyard for dinner..... I HIGHLY recommend Sicily!!!

I honestly was not a fan of Rome....Florance is fantastic, with great food and sites to see...Capri is beautiful too...take a look at cinque Terre as well

Re: Italian Honeymoon

You have to goto Capri and Sorrento!!! So beautiful....perfect for a honeymoon!! I took my mom to Italy last summer and booked throught Perillo Tours. I booked hotels, transportation and airfare through them so it workd out to be cheaper than their regular tours.
