SORRENTO SIGHTSEEING TOUR FIELD GUIDE
Golden-Hour Passage: A Two-Hour Private Cruise from Sorrento to Capri
A private, two-hour boat tour that moves from Sorrento’s citrus-scented cliffs across crystal waters to Capri at sunset; this guide explains what to expect and what to bring.
Golden-Hour Passage: A Two-Hour Private Cruise from Sorrento to Capri.
From Sorrento’s terraced hills and citrus groves to Capri’s carved coastline and shimmering grottos, this short private passage compresses the Amalfi’s most luminous elements into a single evening. Bougainvillea drapes whitewashed walls, boats lie at ease in the harbor, and as the sun descends the coast dissolves into bands of coral and violet—an intimate, two-hour window onto the region’s best light.
