Places to stay
We recommend you stay around Sorrento, Piano di Sorrento, or Meta. The area is close to the wedding venue and has many great and professionally run Airbnb's and hotels.
We will arrange shuttle buses after the event with drop-off in a central place in these areas.
How do we get from the airport to Sorrento?
The fastest option is getting a taxi from the airport to your accommodation, the trip is approximately 45 minutes, however, this is an expensive option.
A cheap and easy way to get from Naples Airport to Sorrento is to get a bus. The company running this stretch is called Curreri: the price is appx 10 Euro and you get the ticket on the day, first come first served.
The journey takes about 75 minutes.
The bus leaves from a parking spot right outside the arrival terminal and it is easy to spot. Official website with info: https://www.curreriviaggi.it/en/naples-airport-shuttle.
The bus is the cheapest way to get to the Amalfi Coast and the most direct by public transport.
The road between Naples airport and Sorrento is scenic: sit on the right side of the bus for the best views!
Private car service is another very popular way to get from Naples Airport to Sorrento. There are very many company offering this service and it is worth taking the time to research them to make sure the price and service are on par with the charge and they have insurance and all licenses in place.
Please note that there is no Uber available in Naples.
How do I get around?
The center of Sorrento is quite small and can be easily explored on foot. The areas around Marina Piccola and Marina Grande are located beneath the center, so it's more convenient to take a bus to get up the hillside to the center. Both these areas are linked to the center by EAV and Cooperativa Tasso buses.
EAV buses are red and orange, and smaller in size than Sita buses. EAV buses run between Sorrento and Meta, Piano, Sant'Agnello, and Massa Lubrense.
Tickets cost €1.20 and can be purchased at tobacco shops ("tabaccaio") or at the Circumvesuviana train station, where you find also the Sorrento bus station.
Tickets cannot be purchased on board.
There are various Apps to help you get around: "Citymapper" for schedules, "Gira Napoli" and "Mooney Go" for tickets and timings.
