1. What are the best shore excursions from the Port of Sorrento for first-time visitors?
For first-time visitors, the best choice is usually a tour that combines the area’s most iconic experiences with a realistic route for a cruise day. Our top recommendation is Sorrento To Amalfi Coast & Pompeii Shore Excursion (Private Tour From Sorrento Port) because it pairs the dramatic coastal scenery with one of Italy’s most famous archaeological sites—giving you a “best of the region” day without complicated logistics.
2. Where do we meet our driver at the Port of Sorrento?
Your driver will meet you at the agreed cruise meeting point holding a sign with your name. Because Sorrento cruise calls can involve tender logistics, we’ll confirm the exact pickup point and timing after booking based on your ship.
3. Are your Sorrento shore excursions private?
Yes—our Sorrento shore excursions are private, meaning the vehicle and driver are exclusively for your party.
4. How long are your Sorrento shore excursions?
Our Sorrento shore excursions are typically listed as 8 hours, depending on the itinerary and your ship schedule.
5. Can we visit the Amalfi Coast from Sorrento cruise port?
Yes—the Amalfi Coast is one of the most popular shore excursions from Sorrento. Your driver will help you manage timing for scenic stops and time in towns like Positano or Ravello.
6. Can we visit Pompeii from Sorrento on a shore excursion?
Yes—Pompeii is a classic choice from Sorrento. If you want a deeper experience inside the ruins, we can arrange a licensed private guide.
7. What is the difference between visiting Positano vs Ravello?
Positano is the iconic cliffside seaside town known for its views and photo spots. Ravello is higher up, quieter, and famous for panoramic terraces and a more relaxed atmosphere.
8. Is the driver also a guide?
Drivers are not licensed guides on foot. They can share context from inside the vehicle, but they cannot accompany you into sites or provide guided explanations once you exit the vehicle. If you’d like a guided visit (especially in Pompeii), we can arrange a licensed private guide.
