Things to do in Sorrento - Isle of Capri

So this is a post that I have been meaning to put on for ages, and I think now is the perfect timing!  (Seen as I've been sick lately...and I'm now taking antibiotics; which are also making me vomit!)  So I'm really sorry about the lack of updates lately ❤

Lately I'm finding myself lusting over my pictures from Sorrento and missing the warmth of the sun and of course the people!  That is when I realised...why have I not put up my pictures from the Isle of Capri?! Prior to going to Sorrento, my partner and I had arranged a 'plan' and on them plans was the Almafi Coast, the Isle of Capri and of course the amazing Pompeii (you can see my blog post about it here)

Things to do in Sorrento - Pompeii

Ever since I was young child, I have been obsessed with Pompeii and have watched numerous documentaries on the matter.  This also included watching Pink Floyd's 'Live at Pompeii' on more than one occasion...which most probably fueled my obsession ❤

When I initially booked my holiday, Kuoni wanted £79 per person for Pompeii excursion (if I remember right) and you can only do it on certain days.  Plus I wanted the freedom of just wandering around for hours in the awe of Mount Vesuvius and seeing exactly what I wanted to see.

My Sorrento Escape

So back in January my partner and I booked a holiday to Sorrento with Kuoni in Liverpool One and at the time it seemed a million miles away.  But as we all know time flies and at last my holiday was here and it was definitely worth the wait ❤ 

We stayed in the Grand Hotel De La Ville for 5 beautiful nights on a half board basis and within seconds of being here we definitely did not regret Kuoni's choice on the hotel.  The location of the hotel was amazing as it was literally within a 2 minute walk from the town centre and the train station.  This definitely came in handy for our trips to the Isle of Capri, Almafi Coast, Pompeii and to Positano.  The food in the hotel was also perfect as I am an extremely fussy vegetarian and was worried as to whether they would cater for me, but they had a varied selection including different types of pasta, pizza and omelette.  Do you ever worry over silly things too?
