An unforgettable coastal trip
The views of the coast are charming and see the coast on the boat is really the best choice. Skipper technology is good and also humorous. Everybody had a pleasant afternoon.

Turbulent sea and fun experience
Tony brought us back safely! Because the sea was very wild on the way back... especially for someone who suffers from that but he did so well that it was just some nausea 👌 Unfortunately we did not see the waterfall but we did swim and dive for octopuses. And even caught!

Positano Boat Tour + Swimming
This tour was excellent! Our driver Antonio was phenomenal and brought us to the most perfect places to swim! We did some cliff jumping and swam at 3 different locations which were all beautiful. There were so many fish and they provided us with snorkeling gear as well as towels, drinks, and even Prosecco on board. We stopped in Positano for an hour and it was perfect, when we were ready to leave Antonio was there waiting for us! We had the best day ever and it was sooo much fun. There was music on the boat with a loud speaker and it was perfect. There was an area to sit down as well as lie down. I would recommend this tour 1000000%! It was perfect! We were two families, 8 people all together and everyone fit wonderfully. If you are looking to visit positano or amalfi while also wanting to swim in the clear, refreshing blue waters, you have to choose this tour. 10/10 🥰
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic time on the Positano Boat Tour with Antonio as your driver. It sounds like you made some unforgettable memories with cliff jumping, swimming in beautiful spots, and enjoying the Prosecco on board our Fratelli Aprea 25ft Gozzo! We're glad you found the boat comfortable for your group and that everyone had fun with the music and amenities. Your enthusiastic recommendation means the world to us, and we truly appreciate you sharing your experience. We hope to welcome you and your families back for another incredible adventure on the water soon!

Positano half-day Private Tour from Sorrento - Premium 28ft Boat: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Positano half-day Private Tour from Sorrento - Premium 28ft Boat cost?
+
Prices start at €500 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 Positano half-day Private Tour from Sorrento - Premium 28ft Boat take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Positano half-day Private Tour from Sorrento - Premium 28ft Boat worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Positano half-day Private Tour from Sorrento - Premium 28ft Boat?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Positano half-day Private Tour from Sorrento - Premium 28ft Boat suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Positano half-day Private Tour from Sorrento - Premium 28ft Boat?
+
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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Positano half-day Private Tour from Sorrento - Premium 28ft Boat 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.
What are the best things to do in Sorrento?
+
On Outty we rank every Sorrento experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sorrento Farm and Food Experience including Olive Oil, Limoncello, Wine tasting, Pizza School with Wine and Limoncello Tasting in a Local Farm, Authentic Farm Tour with Pizza, Cheese, Wine & Limoncello Tasting. 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.
