Pozzuoli to Sorrento transfer

We pick you up from your accommodation, from Pozzuoli’s port or straight from the Phlegraean archaeological sites. If you are coming off a ferry, just give us the operator’s name and we will wait at the right exit.

The drive from Pozzuoli to Sorrento covers about 69 km and takes about 1 hour 40 minutes. The final stretch runs along the coast road carved into the cliff, a sequence of bends and tunnels with the sea straight below — spectacular to look at, demanding to drive. Your driver knows every curve and every passing point, so you can watch the view instead of the road.

The last few kilometres into Sorrento are the slow ones: narrow road, limited traffic zones and very few places where a car can legally stop. The driver takes you to the closest point your accommodation can actually be reached from and helps with the luggage — worth telling us the exact address when booking, because in these villages the difference between one corner and the next is a flight of steps.

We drop you at your accommodation’s door, in the centre as well as in Sant’Agnello or Marina Grande. On the pedestrian streets around Piazza Tasso your driver stops at the nearest accessible point, usually a few metres from the entrance.

Sorrento is the most practical base on the gulf: hydrofoils to Capri leave from here, as does the coast road to Amalfi and the Circumvesuviana train to Pompeii. The centre is compact around Piazza Tasso and entirely walkable, but arriving by private car removes the town’s one real drawback — its crowded public connections.
