When is the best time to book activities in Sorrento?

Book the headline day trips before you travel, especially in high season when boat tours to Capri and Amalfi Coast drives fill up and a handful of departures sell out. Food and wine evenings and private tours can often be arranged closer to your dates.

How should I choose between the experiences on offer?

Decide what you want your first trip to be remembered for. If it's scenery, take a full-day Amalfi Coast or Capri boat tour. If it's history, the Pompeii and Mt Vesuvius day tour covers both in one outing. If it's food, a Sorrento food and wine walk keeps you local.

About Sorrento

Sorrento rewards first-timers with a rare combination: a clifftop town you can wander in an afternoon, and a harbour that puts the Amalfi Coast, Capri and Pompeii within a single day's reach. Start with the coastline itself on the Amalfi Coast Private Tour from Sorrento: Explore Positano, Amalfi & Ravello, then see how the town tastes after dark on the Sorrento Food & Wine Tour: Bella Sorrento Progressive Dinner.

Frequently asked questions

Sorrento is a base as much as a destination, so the best first-timer picks do double duty: they show you the town itself, like a progressive dinner through local kitchens, and they get you onto the water or along the coast to Positano, Amalfi, Ravello, Capri or Pompeii.
