AVOID AT ALL COSTS
Trip was terrible. I was contacted during the day to say the sea would be rough at the start of the trip but would calm down the further we went out. This ended up me and my partner sitting in the underside of the boat soaked. This was booked for a proposal we didn’t even get to our destination before having to ask the driver to turn back due to safety. All it mattered to the company was that they were able to take our money. Once we arrived back to sorrento port after not getting our full allowed time, the operator demanded full payment and was aggressive and argumentative. I wasn’t able to propose however the operator continue to call my partner my fiancée, this then blew my special moment along with ruining my trip. I was bombared the next day with messages from the company and the operator. STAY AWAY from booking with this company, scam and fraud to take money from tourists. If the sea was too rough it should be cancelled and not down to the guests to make the decision and told it would calm down the further you went out. The boat also wasn’t ready when we arrived. The driver out on the trip told us this company normally just send out trips regardless of the weather and he sided with us that it was unsafe. After arriving back he changed his tone due to his boss being there and turned on us and left us in a destressing situation.
Response from the operator: Hi Zak, We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience. However, we would like to clarify some important points. Before the tour, you were clearly informed about the sea conditions and the possibility of rough water on the Sorrento coast. Through the agency, you were offered several alternatives: a full cancellation with refund, changing the date, or departing from the Positano side, where the sea was calmer. Despite these options, you chose to proceed with the tour from Sorrento. Knowing the conditions, we also upgraded the boat to a larger and more enclosed gozzo to provide additional protection and comfort. We normally collect payment before departure, but for a marriage proposal we made an exception, as we did not want to affect such a special moment. The skipper explained that the sea conditions were expected to improve shortly after the initial stretch. When you returned to Sorrento, the wind and sea had indeed calmed, as previously communicated. Regarding the payment, after returning to port there was a discussion regarding the amount due. We ultimately accepted a payment of less than half of the agreed price, despite the boat, fuel, and skipper having been reserved exclusively for your service. We understand that this was an important occasion for you, and we are sorry that the proposal did not happen as planned. The use of the word "fiancée" by one of our team members was simply an unfortunate wording mistake and was never intended to affect your special moment. We always do our best to offer solutions and accommodate our guests, especially in situations affected by weather conditions. In this case, all available alternatives were communicated in advance, and we respected your decision to proceed with the tour.

Sunset cruise to Capri
We went on a sunset cruise to Capri and Stefano and Abigail were amazing! The boat was clean, the sights were beautiful and to top it off, they were so helpful at pulling off a romantic surprise proposal with custom music playing and everything. Abigail also took better pictures than a professional photographer. I would 100% go on another boat cruise with them.

Private Sunset Cruise along Sorrento Coast: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Private Sunset Cruise along Sorrento Coast cost?
+
Prices start at $200 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 Private Sunset Cruise along Sorrento Coast take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Private Sunset Cruise along Sorrento Coast worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 16 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 Private Sunset Cruise along Sorrento Coast?
+
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 Private Sunset Cruise along Sorrento Coast suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Sunset Cruise along Sorrento Coast?
+
Around 6 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Sunset Cruise along Sorrento Coast 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.
