<p>Hello Bonsignore Ezio,<br>
Thank you very much for your insightful tips. We were last summer in Cinque Terre, which is a beautiful place to visit (briefly). Nothing has been yet set for next summer's visit, and maybe a compromise can be reached where we take the train from Rome to some town close to Amalfi, and then hire a driver/van?<br>
Italy is a beautiful country and we will try to fully enjoy our family trip there.</p>
