Best Places to Visit in Positano
I have always wanted to go to Italy and specifically, Positano (and Rome too but that’s another blog. haha!). What’s not to like about an ocean view, the beach and the hills with colorful houses? As I created my itinerary for my 2018 Europe trip, I just HAD to include Positano. GETTING TO POSITANO I heard stories about how getting to Positano can get a little tricky due to overcrowded buses, scary drive through the mountains, etc. Coming from Rome, I booked a train online via Trenitalia from Roma Termini to Salerno station a month in advance. I even booked my seat in advance as well. The cost of the…
