Naples to Sorrento Private Transfer: Mercedes, Pickup & Wi-Fi

Summary

Private ride from Naples to Sorrento with local driver and easy pickup

You’ll feel instantly at ease with a private transfer from Naples to Sorrento — greeted by your driver at the airport or station, settling into a cool Mercedes with Wi-Fi and cold water. Watch city chaos fade into coastal calm while a local shares tips or lets you nap. Arriving relaxed is its own kind of luxury.

What’s the experience like?

I’ll be honest — I was nervous about getting from Naples to Sorrento. The train station always feels like organized chaos (so many hands waving, horns blaring), and my Italian’s not exactly… well, it’s not. But stepping out of the arrivals hall at Napoli Centrale and spotting my name on a sign felt like a small miracle. Our driver, Antonio, grinned and took my bag before I even had time to fumble for it. He had that Neapolitan warmth — you know when someone calls you “amico” right away? That. The car was spotless, smelled faintly of lemon-scented wipes (maybe just me hoping for Sorrento already), and the air conditioning was honestly a relief after the sticky platform.

We slid out of Naples surprisingly fast — Antonio seemed to know every shortcut around the traffic. At one point he pointed out Vesuvius looming in the haze (“Sempre guardando,” he said, which I think means “always watching”). There was bottled water waiting for us in the backseat, which sounds like nothing but after travel-day dehydration it tasted almost sweet. The Mercedes felt like a cocoon as we left the city noise behind; I half-dozed as sunlight flickered through olive trees along the highway. It’s funny how quickly the city gives way to green hills and then those sharp glimpses of blue sea far below.

The whole drive from Naples to Sorrento took just over an hour — depends on traffic, but we barely noticed time passing. Antonio chatted in easy English about his favorite trattoria in Sorrento (he swears by their gnocchi), then let us sit quietly when we drifted off again. There’s something comforting about being driven by someone who knows these roads so well — no GPS recalculating every five minutes, no frantic checking Google Maps. When we finally rolled into Sorrento and he pulled up right at our hotel door, I realized how much stress we’d skipped by booking this private transfer instead of juggling trains or buses with luggage bumping behind us.
