hotel transfer from ports in Sorrento

Posted by (Missouri) on

We have added 3 days in Sorrento at the end of our Rick Steve's' Best of Italy 17 day trip. We have booked an Amalfi Coast semi-private boat tour (leaving from Marina Grande 21) and on another day we booked the Capri Deluxe island experience semi-private with city tour (leaving from Port Marina Piccola) . Both with MondoGuide.

I know we can ask our hotel to help us get transportation to the marinas, but when we complete our tours back at the marinas, are there taxies available there? I'm just not sure on our return trip back to the hotel. This is our first trip to Italy and have lots of questions!
Thank you!

Where is your hotel?
Is it close enough to walk?

There will probably be taxis at the ports but just be aware that taxis in Sorrento are famous for being outrageously expensive for very short rides

I would ask my hotel what to expect to pay

Pretty sure there is also a bus and your hotel should have that info

taxis in Sorrento are famous for being outrageously expensive for very short rides

An example is that we were charged €24 for the 5 minute ride from the train station to our hotel... and that was the metered price! There are usually taxis and a bus in the marina but if you're hotel is in town it may be a good idea to walk if your are able. There is an elevator for about €1.10 (3 years ago) to get you into town from the marina and then if your hotel is in town, it may only be a 10 minute walk. If you're up in the hills above Sorrento then you may need a taxi, or your hotel may have a shuttle bus.
