Extra day in Rome or Capri?

Hi all! We are planning our first trip to Italy for mid-September. My question is where should we spend a day between Sorrento and Rome. We have 2 days in Sorrento (one to relax after a long flight, one to visit Positano and do some hiking), but have heard great things about Capri. We were planning on spending 3 days in Rome, but are thinking maybe we’d rather spend a day on Capri and only 2 in Rome. We want to see main Roman sites, but can we enjoy it in 2 days? Which is better- a day in Capri, or a more relaxed time in Rome?

Our day between these two areas, we want to go from Sorrento, stop at Pompeii and possibly do some hiking on Vesuvius, then head to Rome by train. Can we do that and get into Rome not too late at night? Thanks!
