The Amalfi coast itself is pretty much a day trip from Sorrento. Doing it by boat would be a better idea imo as you get to see the coast from sea rather than being driven along it but it wasn’t an option for us. There’s plenty to see in that part of Italy so it’s definitely worth doing at some stage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 49644 Posted October 27, 2024 Share Posted October 27, 2024 Bus from Belfast, I reckon. Spaghetti hoops in a flask for the journey to get into the Italian vibe. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 11313 Posted October 30, 2024 Share Posted October 30, 2024 The holiday was good, I'd like to say "Corfu is nice" but if I'm honest we didn't see much of it apart from the airport, taxi-interior, and hotel. Major ups were great weather, good food, welcoming staff and all that. Downs were the littlest one getting Hand, Foot and Mouth and incapable of sleeping unless she's on one of me or the Mrs. Still, nowt perks you up after 5 broken hours of sleep quite like a punchy Bloody Mary with your toes in the Ionian sea. 5.8/6.7 would recommend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 14619 Posted November 23, 2024 Share Posted November 23, 2024 Off to Berlin for a week or so in May now that Newcastle Airport has flights. Any recommendations bar the obvious sights? Bonus points for any good pubs off the beaten track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7594 Posted Sunday at 13:10 Share Posted Sunday at 13:10 Just got back from 2 days in Amsterdam with the family. Somehow managed to avoid it until 42, but what a lush city. Barely any cars in the city centre, little to no rubbish, beautiful architecture, everyone is bilingual, lovely food etc. f Had a great time. Only let down slightly by some absolute clampetts on the ferry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only let down slightly by some absolute clampetts on the ferry. It’s a very nice city, often overshadowed by its naughty reputation. We had a day trip there with the kids when we were in Holland. Train in to the top of the city and then a wander, food, boat tour of the canals. Tbe architecture is great, very different to any UK cities. Great day and we all got royally baked on some quality green outside the local knocking shop before getting the train back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 16388 Posted Sunday at 13:41 Share Posted Sunday at 13:41 Netherlands is massively underrated as a destination imo. Some of the other cities are great too, lush beaches, easy (casual) cycling. And bitterballen. 🥰 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
