Convenience

Sorrento isn’t located close to Naples Airport, so using public transport to complete the journey can be time-consuming, confusing, and uncomfortable. It’s far more relaxing to hop in an air-conditioned cab and head straight to your accommodation, knowing your personal belongings are safe. That said, there can be a long wait for an available cab during high season. If you want to skip the taxi queue, you’re better off pre-booking a private transfer.

Editor’s Note

Great for a convenient travel solution on demand.

Useful Tips

If you land in Naples Airport (NAP) very early in the morning or late at night, taking a taxi may be your only transfer option as both the bus and train only run during the day and early evening.

Make sure your driver has his licence containing his picture and name displayed in the taxi.

Ask you driver an estimated price for your journey before you begin to have a clearer idea of the price.

Keep in mind that your driver may charge extra for large luggage items.

The Circumvesuviana train runs from 06:09am to 21:47.

Where do I get a train from?

The Circumvesuviana trains have a different platform with separate ticket barriers from the other trains at Naples Centrale Station. You will need to take the stairs down to the level below the high-speed trains known as Garibaldi Station. Check the screens to see which platform the train to Sorrento departs from.

Convenience

The Circumvesuviana train is a commuter train, so it gets hot, crowded and makes many stops. This is the only indirect and least convenient transfer option from Naples Airport to Sorrento. If you have a little extra room in your budget, we highly recommend taking the bus or a taxi.

Editor’s Note

Useful Tips

There are luggage racks available, but they fill up fast. If this happens, you will need to stand with your luggage in the open areas near the train doors.

There are no escalators in Naples or Sorrento train station, so if you have heavy luggage this could make your journey difficult.

Although the Circumvesuviana train leaves from an area called Garibaldi Station, you never actually need to leave Naples Centrale Station to reach it.
