Marina della Lobra - Spiaggia e Borgo Marinaro
In spring when there are no swimmers we will visit the fishing village of Marina della Lobra. The etymology of Lobra derives from "Delubrum", temple, with reference to the ancient cathedral located on the beach. Here we will have the opportunity to cross the entire small block of land still mostly inhabited today by fishermen, and to savor the essences and colors that these small villages offer to their visitors. During the period of Barbary incursions, control of the entire village was entrusted to the watchtower called Corva, named after the tip which, to the west, delimits the Lobra inlet. The latter, called Capo Corbo, hosts, among other things, the church of San Liberatore. In summer we will admire the village of Santa Maria della Lobra from the top of the enchanting Via del Nastro D'oro which we will walk along in its entirety admiring its beauty.

Termini
From Marina della Lobra we will go to one of the most enchanting places, S.Liberatore. After traveling along the enchanting Nastro d'oro for 20 minutes, we will reach the village of S.Maria Annunziata, outside the tourist circuits, one of the most enchanting places in the town of Massa Lubrense where we will see from afar the Castle, the Torre dei Pegni and the Palace where Gioacchino Murat took refuge. From there we can relax and enjoy a breathtaking view of Capri. Then we will go to Termini, the place where the temple of Athena was built in the past (Athena for the Greeks and Minerva for the Romans). There you can enjoy the view of Capri while tasting a lemon granita or a cold drink. Right in front of Capri, on the hill at the foot of Mount San Costanzo (330 meters above sea level), the hamlet of Termini enjoys an enviable landscape position. The origin of its name could derive from its proximity to Punta Campanella (term = end), at the end of the Sorrento Peninsula.

From Termini, after a 20-minute drive, we reach the bay of Nerano, where you can admire the three islets of "Li Galli", take a dip in the splendid waters and order a spaghetti with courgettes, the local specialty, in one of its renowned restaurants.
30 minutes here
Sant'Agata sui Due Golfi
After 15 minutes by car we will reach S.Agata sui due Golfi, so called because from this village you can admire both the Gulf of Naples and that of Salerno. The people who colonized this land were the Teleboi from Acarnania and the nearby islands near the mouth of the Achelous, the largest river in Greece and the mythical father of the Sirens. In their wanderings, they also brought with them the myth of the Sirens which they finally identified in the three islets of "Li Galli" which we will admire in all their beauty, located in front of the coast between Positano and Torca, but also visible from S. Agata . In fact, almost all sources confirm the hypothesis that the myth had made the Promontory where S.Agata stands the seat of the Sirens during their lives.

Pvt car tour Sorrento
Pvt tour with Silvana was incredible. Got to see a lot of local flavor that big tour group could not do. Highly recommended
Response from the operator: Thank you so much.Glad to welcome you again
via Tripadvisor
A truly wonderful and unique way to see around Sorrento area and the coast to Positano. So Interesting too!
This is a very special tour - and a truly unique way of visiting some beautiful places that are not usually seen by tourists. The drive in Silvana's car is very comfortable and during the drive Silvana explains all about the history and the reason these places are special. The rich green countryside around Sorrento is well worth seeing, especially as there are some incredible views over the bay to Vesuvius. Silvana takes the most scenic route to Positano. The tour stops to take advantage of photo opportunities, especially from Massa Lubrense with its amazing views over to Capri. We also visited the fishing village and the hamlet of Santa Maria Annunziata, made famous in the story of Gioacchino Murat and the Napoleonic wars against the British (who held Capri at the time). Silvana gives all the details of these and other fascinating stories, and is very knowledgeable about the area in many ways. She answered all our questions and will focus her talk on whatever aspect we want to know about. We visited local crafts people too, and learned about local arts and crafts - as well about how the tourist industry is impacting the area. Of course this is an area rich in lemon and olive groves, and no tour is complete without the chance to sample the local produce. . . Overall, we had a wonderful and fulfilling afternoon and evening. Can't wait to go back and do another of Silvana's tours. Thank you!

Silvana's private car tour.
Silvana’s tour was an experience! It’s such a well-thought journey thanks to the places that only a local could know. A blow of fresh air from the mass tourism in the Sorrento peninsula. Silvana is a great guide because she combines professionalism with charisma and she’s also a very warm and sweet person. I wholeheartedly recommend it!

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Car Tour admiring Capri and visiting Positano: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Car Tour admiring Capri and visiting Positano cost?
+
Prices start at $595 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sorrento usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Car Tour admiring Capri and visiting Positano take?
+
Plan for about 5.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sorrento is not rushed.
Is Car Tour admiring Capri and visiting Positano worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Car Tour admiring Capri and visiting Positano?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Car Tour admiring Capri and visiting Positano suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Car Tour admiring Capri and visiting Positano?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sorrento can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sorrento and add a light layer if any part of the 5.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Car Tour admiring Capri and visiting Positano start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sorrento within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sorrento?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sorrento?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
