Sorrento Group Tours
Latest update: 23 February 2023
|
The Sorrento group tours allow you to enjoy the outstanding natural beauty of the local area, soak up its history and make some new friends along the way.
Group sizes are kept to a minimum to ensure you always have plenty of space on our boats and travel in comfort. The tours allow you to visit places like Capri, the Amalfi Coast and the Sorrento Peninsula from the water, providing a completely different perspective on the coastline's natural beauty that can't always be perceived from the land. We can also use the boats to help you visit historic Pompeii and the imposing Mount Vesuvius. |

The Capri Blue Grotto and Sorrento Coast Boat Tour works on a similar basis to the first tour on this page, but with some subtle differences. The first part of the excursion cruises along the Sorrento Coast, passing Marina Grande and Bagni di Regina Giovanna, before the short crossing to Capri.
Unlike the tour above, this one stops at the famous Blue Grotto in Capri and the maximum number of passengers is restricted to 8 whereas the first tour can have up to 14 people on board. As a result of the visit to the Blue Grotto, this tour starts slightly earlier in the morning, in order to minimise the queueing outside the Grotto.

The Amalfi and Sorrento Coast Boat Tour links two of Italy's most famous areas of coastline. The Amalfi Coast is officially recognised by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site and lies just beyond the Sorrento Peninsula. The two signature towns of Amalfi and Positano which can be something of a challenge to reach by public transport, turn into a relaxing day out where you have time to explore both on foot.
Starting from the nearby port of Piano di Sorrento, the excursion makes its way past Sorrento's Marina Grande before cruising along the sights of Peninsula such as the island group of Li Galli. Everything beyond those three islands is the Amalfi Coast with its dramatic cliffs tumbling down into bright blue water and punctuated by the pretty ports of Positano and Amalfi.

The Eco Friendly Amalfi Coast Boat Tour provides access to the spectacular Bay of Jeranto which is otherwise quite tricky to visit. The Bay is a marine area that's given special protection due to its environmental heritage and closed to typical motor boats. However, with our eco-friendly hybrid engine boat, you're able to enter the Bay in silence and enjoy its treasures. Those that want to swim in the bay can, while others will just want to admire its beauty and get some wonderful photos.
Aside from the Bay of Jeranto, this tour also takes in the pretty coastline of the Sorrento Peninsula as well as that of the Amalfi Coast. We stop in both Positano and Amalfi where you have time to explore the towns on foot or spend time in a cafe watching the world go by.

The Ischia and Procida Boat Tour takes in two of Italy's favourite islands in the same day. Slightly further afield from Sorrento than the island of Capri, both Ischia and Procida have been charming visitors for years. Ischia is a well-established holiday destination for Italians who come to sunbathe on its sandy beaches, spend time at its thermal spas or explore its historic sights such as Castello Aragonese.
Setting out from Sorrento on Tuesday and Friday mornings, the excursion first heads to Ischia where a circuit of the island is followed by free time for you to explore it on foot. Just a short distance across the water from Ischia lies Procida which was the Italian Capital of Culture in 2022 and has been creating a buzz internationally ever since. Procida is famous above all for its pretty Marina Corricella but also as the setting of the Oscar-winning film Il Postino (1994) starring local hero Massimo Troisi.

The Pompeii, Mount Vesuvius and Vineyard Lunch excursion provides a unique opportunity to take in some of the local areas world-famous sights while sampling its delicious cuisine. A day out at Pompeii is at the top of the list for most visitors to Sorrento; the town's fate was sealed in 79AD when the hitherto quiet Mount Vesuvius suddenly erupted into life and buried it in a cloud of ash. Once those layers of ash were excavated almost two thousand years later, they left a perfectly-preserved Roman town beneath them.
Mount Vesuvius is also a national park with an extraordinary landscape that can be visited with the help of local guides and transportation, such as in this excursion. Whereas most people visit Pompeii by train from Sorrento, on this tour we make it a little more interesting by taking the first part of the journey by sea, lunch at a vineyard on the slopes of the volcano and a hike to the crater at its summit. We'll also supply an expert guide for two and a half hours in Pompeii as well as collection from and drop-off in Sorrento town centre.
