Trenitalia Rome to Naples

Roma Termini to Napoli Centrale

You want to depart from the Roma Termini station and arrive at the Napoli Centrale station. Don’t bother hiring a driver to get to Sorrento; instead, hop on the Circumvesuviana train that departs in the basement of Napoli Centrale: https://www.sorrentoinsider.com/en/naples-to-sorrento-train-schedule.

Thank you very much!

Is it necessary or recommended to purchase tickets in advance for this train to Sorrento? Is it air conditioned? Can you keep your luggage with you? How long is the train ride, does it make multiple stops before Sorrento? Thank you in advance, I know I have many questions. :)

The Campania express may be an option, depending on the time of year of your visit

The Circumvesuviana is not air conditioned. The Campania Express is.

The Circumvesuviana is fine except do not go on it during rush hour (morning and evening).

It's not necessary to buy Circumvesuviana tickets ahead of time; in fact, I kind of think the only place you can buy them is inside the station. The fare never changes, and there are no assigned seats, so buying a ticket in advance would gain nothing.

The name of the Circumvesuviana train stop that’s located in the basement of Napoli Centrale is Napoli Garibaldi. Sorrento is the end of line so it does not matter how many stops since you’ll get off with everyone else. It takes 1h 15m from Napoli Garibaldi to Sorrento.
