hey everyone it's morgan yates and welcome back to my european summer series so far i've brought
you guys along all my recent trips to paris epernay bruges amsterdam santorini and paris and
today i am so excited to for the first time be visiting positano the amalfi coast exceeded all
of my expectations and i am so excited to bring you guys along and as always if you want to catch
up on the vlogs in this series i will have the playlist linked below but let's go ahead and head
to positano welcome to positano i'm so excited like a little hotel room tour but we're not here
for the room we're here for the view my room has this really cute terrace ours is like the very end
ones we have views right beside us here the cliffs are so pretty like a main road right there so we
didn't have to actually carry our bats very far at all and then we have the ocean down here crazy
views got a happy giselle i to see the bathroom oh very blue in here little mermaid vibes under
the sea i'm so excited for this this is a place i have never been before we were spending the next
like four full days but also today so like five days in the amalfi coast we just checked into her
hotel i will have the name of it on screen where we were staying we booked this well in advance and
to snatch up this view but we just flew here from greece so if you have not seen the grease vlogs
i believe santorini went up on this channel and then my paris vlog went up over my vlog channel
i also went to mykonos but i decided not to vlog that just to have like a little bit of a break
but we just took a short flight from there into the naples airport the drive to get here which
we set up through our hotel in advance was an hour and a half probably a little pricey but we thought
with our huge bags we were better off doing that than like trying to lug our stuff around the bus
and whatnot but a very conveniently located hotel it's my first impression and i hope you
guys enjoy it following along we're trying to do some preliminary planning that we should have done
like weeks in advance because things are booked up we're learning all the popular like restaurants
and like beach beaches and whatever across the different cities we're going to be going to on our
day trips are all booked so anyways we're figuring it out but welcome to positano i'm excited first
fit little reformation dress wear more dresses this summer than i've ever worn ever i think
we made a reservation at this place for dinner there's one a few places we could actually get
reservation and then we just went here for lunch that was probably a mistake
because you could just walk in anywhere for lunch but anyways lunch is served just all got pizza
i'm gonna be living on caprese all week everywhere i travel i have like one thing i just get over and
over and this is it here it takes you off one drink it's really just the store in my life
are you yeah me too you had two not yet oh oh my god i didn't knock it over
the waiter just took the cutest photos of us i'm gonna put him on screens earned his tip check
so much limoncello but amalfi is where it really is right
cell's making us walk into every single store now we need cannoli
i think we located the beach
we just meandered on down and we found it so many boats wow
all right night one fit we've just been doing some planning here is the fit of
the night he's forever 21 like stretchy pants i've had for forever and then a princess polly
little wrap back tank i've also had for forever so we're gonna walk to dinner i
think it's like 10 minutes a little place giselle found and i'm excited you guys saw
the santorini vlog you may remember i injured my knee from all this stuff so taking it easy
fortunately there are lots of just sidewalks i was not informed about felt it girls get it girly
we're just taking all these pics literally you can see straight into the church where they are
preaching right now probably looking out like odds lost generation stairs back in action
truffle pasta for dinner zucchini pasta the mosquitoes are having me for dinner
that's for sure literally gotten bit like seven times since sitting down here but
more than for the fuse i did pack mosquito spray and i did not pull it out today let's
learn giselle's first limoncello in italy dessert crack it open it's not a crack type open thing
back in the room night one and positano we've learned a lot i feel like i'm already a veteran
just from tonight's experiences you can watch a lot of people's vlogs and it always looks nice
and pretty but they never give practical tips to our dinner spot which was not far away we mapped
uh walking directions which i guess this advice is only applicable if you're staying like off a main
road like we are but we took like all the ramps eventually started going down some stairs and then
up about 5 000 stairs to get to our restaurant i'm not even kidding it was like every single
turn i kept thinking like this is going to be the turn that it's like some flat ground no the whole
thing full body dripping in sweat pulling up to this nice like four dollar sign nice restaurant
dripping you know just how i want to pop up at a dinner like that pulling i'm like i can't get
water so then coming home i was looking at the map and i was like this is literally right off
the main road like if we were to go the opposite direction instead of left and down up it's like
you could just take the main road that's like flat granted it's a driving road we took that
home it was flat it was easy it was effortless and like less time here's the advice don't put
it on walking directions don't listen put it on driving directions if you're staying near your
main road put on driving and that might be your best bet to avoid stairs we've learned our lesson
currently like 9 30 a.m day one over don't you literally everything is sold out if
you're coming here book everything literally like a month all right we're heading out on
our first day finally we've somehow we've gotten lucky we've scored i think do we have
reservations every day we keep putting our days confused because this is the longest
we've been in one place but we like got a beach chair reservation for tomorrow we have
a boat sunset thing tomorrow night two other days we have beach things yeah we got a capri
beach day thing like reading the beach chairs in advance seems to be like the biggest struggle and
it's very warm here so that's like what i want to be doing the most so i think we've locked down
our spots i think we decided we're going to skip sorrento and then we may or may not be going to
a mafia i don't know today basically is now like our wild card day so we're gonna walk down to the
beach here and try to see if there's some kind of like boat thing we could just like buy on the spot
if not then we might not make it to a mafia or maybe we'll take like a water taxi there
for lunch or something i don't know i don't know how any of this works i'm winging it obviously i
didn't do enough research but we're just gonna head down there maybe just lay out of the beach
here again it's so beautiful i feel like you can't go wrong i just know there's like so many
like cities nearby as well that i'm sure are like equally great but if we don't see all of them it's
nothing in the world because we're still gonna be having a great time so we're leaving let's go
all right another life pack we're learning so the main beach i'll have the name of like the beach
club or whatever it's just the place where they have all the chairs we were googling us couldn't
figure out how to reserve online but apparently you can we were just googling like the name of the
beach as a whole we didn't know like the name of this like company so apparently on their website
i don't know if he was saying the day before but maybe you can prior to that even but i know in
person you can come here the day before if you're like in the area and reserve your chairs like pick
the exact one or apparently online they have like a map and you can pick your umbrella so we're on
the fifth row it looks so empty we thought we were really scoring something then like we're
like wow we're gonna get like front row um no they're just all reserved so it is kind of nice
having all the space because we were here later in the afternoon yesterday and it gets quite busy
we had reserved beach chairs here in a few days in capri but we ended up just now wandering up
to another place that does like a full day boat tour that is 120 euros a person which i think is
pretty good for about it's like 12 people so we're gonna do that that day instead and we just cancel
our other capri thing tomorrow we have beach reservations around the corner at like another
beach you can't see from here that is supposed to be a little bit calmer and then we have another
beach reservation for the 20th the day in between lots of lots of peaches which i'm thrilled about
still so far away she's trying to leave me swimming away
we just ordered some women's spritzes that are probably delivered already
i just can't believe this year like i'm living in a pinterest photo
they love lemons here if you didn't know so we got a lemon spritz my first one i don't want to
speak too soon actually i feel perfectly fine speaking too soon what favorite place favorite
place i don't know i feel like the first time you visit anywhere has like such a wow factor but i
was going to say positano i feel like i've always been i don't know not that i've ever seriously
contemplated coming here until this summer but in my head it's always seemed just like too
complicated to figure out i would highly recommend coming here like stairs aside it is very crowded
like the beaches are kind of rocky and you're like kind of on top of each other but this is
really like swimming in the water is like one of the most beautiful things or beautiful places
i've ever been ever so thumbs up to here i just can't believe this is real like it's rare that
i have a moment traveling where i'm like i cannot believe this is real i know swimming in a postcard
lunch spot very famous spot here that we could not get a dinner reservation because it's booked
forever in advance so we popped in
the theme of this trip is morgan is tipsy after wondering back on my hugo sprints just how got
a pizza and they brought it in a heart do i have competition i'm going back there post
beach snack what is it i'm confused is the top of that like actually lemon but then they stuff it oh
yes the answer is yes i got another cannoli oh my god it's just sorbet
good morning from our second full day and positano but today we've made yet
another beach chair reservation in positano there's like the main beach
and then i guess like you can't see it from there but like slightly around
like a curve of the shore there's another beach there that is like less crowded and whatever so
we're gonna check it out i believe it's a short walk to get there as well and our plan is just
lay out all day and then tonight if something very exciting like the literal only thing i
planned like a month or two in advance was this like sunset boat rides like a private thing so
just me and giselle and the guy driving the boat so it's gonna be very exciting because that should
be beautiful and we're just gonna go lay out working on my tan here i am excited these are
the fairies you take to get to the other places now we're on quite a scenic walk to the beach
where we're going today not a bad walk as bad as i thought
front row today we were in front row chairs at this beach walked up this isn't actually
the one we made reservations at we just walked up to a different one
because we like the chair color better and we got front row with no reservations so
maybe this is the better move after all versus the positano beach everywhere we go
they'll ask if they're sharks as though it's like a free clipping contour yeah
you swim in california water's so deep also just so rocky like honestly bring water shoes so we
rented it at the blue where we had reservations we're here but it's already very full there maybe
because that's the only one we can figure out how to make reservations at so we walked right up at
like 11 and just got front row seats here so maybe go to this beach living the life
all these clothes that i guess people just left online that you can just use for free this one
is 100 for a kid and it's like very inflated and not meant for an adult body weight i don't think
so we're like falling off like a hundred times turn oh you got it that was fast
what the heck last time whoa i think i must have gotten some air out of it yay
stopped for lunch the sun was
little panini is served so i got a salad these are the views
all right we have now showered and we gotten ready after a long day in the sun the beach was just
so much fun feel like you can't really go wrong anywhere but would really recommend
that beach they had like a water taxi that took you from you know it was not a long
walk but i guess like leaving you have to go up a bunch of stairs they had a water
shuttle for like two minutes very short to get back to the position up here
so it's just very nice and right now we have we actually showered and kind of we got ready but we
may or may not swim again tonight because we're going on our little sunset boat i will have the
name of the boat company here as well but we're very excited because it's like a private tour
and they know we're a couple so it's just like i don't know it's just nice i don't know you
just never know in other countries and whatever what different individuals think and so it's just
nice to know that we're going into a comfortable environment so we're gonna go there on our boat
he gave us the option of the coast or coming over here and he said this is the more romantic spot
so we're going here no one's here this is crazy we're just like it's just us
what's up first of all you guys know how this goes when um morgan has to
jump off a boat which way towards the sun get towards the sun but how are
we gonna get up there we're gonna fall the second time back away from this pool
not too cold this is crazy look at our boat here's our boat no driver enzo my noodle touch the rock
apparently these islands are owned by a very rich businessman and sorrento i'm probably gonna get
copyrighted but it's for fletcher so it's fine there's three villas here you can rent and like a
wedding venue sure they're like a million dollars but we're stopping for a swim it's literally
just us and this guy is probably someone's private bow driver villa number one two three
sun just set i'm obsessed with this this is the best thing we've ever done
would you agree yes my favorite
and that wraps up part one of my positano vlogs part two will be coming up here in
a few days on my vlog channel where we're checking out some other beach
clubs sailing around to capri and overall just soaking up the beautiful sights even
more thank you guys so much for watching and i will see you then
