Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    My wife and I walked here from downtown Sorrento along the trail provided on the website Alltrails, and it was one of our favorite activities! So beautiful to look at and swim in! Make sure to bring a bathing suit!

    My spouse got a lemon tart ( it was served Warm with homemade whipped cream on the side and powered sugar on top) OMG It was Sorrento on a plate. I got a blueberry cheesescake in a jar with a sprig of mint on the top again to die for. Just on the Main Street in the center we noticed the huge sugared donuts in the front display case and ventured in. It was so much better than the other dessert menus offered. If you are in Sorrento or near do not miss this treat they also have gelato but the other pastries are dessert for the eyes and hesven in the tummy we’ve been up and down Italy and this is the one we will consider in our top 5 and maybe top 3
    Buongiorno we love Bar Polli

    Great day with Roberto! My family and I did a private driving tour with Roberto and we would highly recommend. He was super knowledgeable about all the towns we visited, was able to get us to great walking points to explore, and took us to a great lunch spot. Professional and great driver on the Amalfi roads.

    Fantastic day trip! Luigi and our captain Dario made this experience. You head over to
    Amalfi first for about 90 minutes and then to Positano for about 90 minutes which I think was ample time to check out some shops and grab a bite to eat at both towns. After the two stops you’ll stop at a location to swim in the gorgeous water.

    Luigi was great about pointing out things along the way and captain Dario was a fantastic boater making the way home much more comfortable.

    The boat was very spacious, there were 12 people total on the excursion and we were cramped at all and had space to spread out.

    Can’t recommend them enough!

    We did the full-day group boat trip to Amalfi and Positano. It was quite by chance that we found the tour, as it was advertised at a scooter hire shop in Meta.

    We were collected in a minbus from Meta and driven to Marina della Lobra, just outside Massa Lubrense, where we picked up the boat. The journey took us through the marine reserve around Punta Campanella, and all along the Amalfi coast. The views were stunning in every direction, and the boat thoughtfully paused and did a 360-degree circle at the most picturesque spots so that people sitting on both sides could take photos.

    Amalfi was the more enjoyable of the two stops, where we spent 3 hours and had lunch. Do visit the Cattedrale di Sant'Andrea while you're there; there's some stunning architecture and wall paintings many centuries old. While Positano was just as pretty there wasn't much to do beyond go shopping. Instead we opted for an ice-cream and found somewhere shady to watch the world go by.

    At just €60 per head (plus an extra €5 payable in cash if you require pick-up from Meta or Sorrento) this trip is outstanding value. Looking at the cost of the ferries we would have spent over €50, and this would have been looking at the coast through mucky windows.

    His professionalism, customer care, amzing knwledge of the area and the pride he took in his work was nothing short of excelllent. Thank you Joe. You are simply the best!!

    My wife my son and I had a fantastic time on the Kayak tour. We stumbled across Umberto while going for a morning walk in the marina and we spoke to him for a few minutes and grabbed his information.
    We came back later in the afternoon and we are so happy we decided to go on the Kayak tour. The town was super busy and we just wanted to escape a bit, and this was the perfect way to do so. You leave from a super calm marina and get to see the coast line from the water. We had a couple of great stops along the way including a short meeting at one of his friends boats where they were pouring wine for us(not a planned stop).
    Thanks for a fantastic afternoon my 13 year old loved it.

    This was such an amazing way to see the Sorrento/Amalfi coast! Our boat captain Giovanni was fantastic and kept us safe even when conditions got choppy towards the end of the day. We had the option to stop and enter some of the seaside towns, and we even got to swim a little bit. Overall a fantastic way to see this gorgeous part of the world. Thanks Giovanni!

    PATH OF THE GODS TOUR - 5/5 amazing experience with the family. We were fortunate to have Nino as our tour guide, supported by Chito - who were knowledgeable, entertaining, great english and all round top blokes.

    We did the hike with our parents ~65yrs who though the hike was medium- hard and were happy with the overall distance. There were 4 of us in our 30's who felt is was easy as far as hiking and mountainous hikes go. Despite this we are so glad we did this with a guide - we learnt about wild herbs, learnt about the Greek and Roman settlements of Capri, and Napoli as do much more. The sherpa experience at the end was a great surprise and a load of fun.

    We would suggest Nino Aversa (Off The Beaten Track) to everyone anyone - it was a fantastic experience.

    Thanks guys 🙏

    My friend and I had a private boat tour to Amalfi and then swimming at Positano with Tony. It was one of the best days ever. Would highly recommend Tony and the company they were professional but fun.

    We are open water certified and did 2 dives in the morning with Alessandra. She was an amazing guide and we found all the guides on the boat helpful. There were 3 guides for 3 groups of 2 people. Water was cold but manageable with a wet suit. Visibility was limited but we were able to see many different types of life and Alessandra made sure to point out lots of interesting stuff!

    Arlia our tour guide and Luigi our captain made this all day private boat tour out to Positano such wonderful and special day for us and our family. The boat is BEAUTIFUL and spacious with more than enough from for the 6 of us adults. We left from Massa Lubrense port and made our way leisurely up the Amalfi coast to Positano where we had a few hours to explore. Arlia provided great information about different areas we passed on along the way which included breathtaking coastal cliffs and the sea. She served us delicious snacks, fruit, bread, her family's olive oil, prosecco and beer along the way as well which we all appreciated. She had arranged for us to stop at the quaint little fishing village of Nerano on our way back to eat lunch at La Perla, a restaurant right on the water. We had a delicious lunch including the local speciality Spaghetti alla Nerano which was so good! After that we were able to go to Jeranto bay for a swim in the Ionian sea before heading back to Massa Lubrense. All of us agreed that the day was spectacular on the Sparviere boat and Arlia and Luigi were just so friendly and nice. This day was a highlight of our whole trip and we highly recommend the Sparviere!!

    We loved our tour with host Fedrico and Captain G (not sure how to spell names)! Boat was lovely and comfortable. We told them what we wanted to see, and they made it happen. Went to Positano for a short visit and were told many interesting facts on the way. We then toured around Capri, where Fedrico made lunch reservations for us at the perfect spot. It couldn’t have been more perfect. Our hosts were so fun and the spots where they took us were breathtaking.
