Ancient history area of Sorrento
We had an excellent guide Gulia ! We walked through places in the historic area you wouldn’t find on your own ! Saw wood craft shop that made beautiful inlay music boxes and accessory boxes chess sets !

We arrived in Sorrento...
We arrived in Sorrento for 4 days and did the Secret walks of Sorrento tour with Adriono Guarracino the first night. We learned a lot about the town's history and saw a lot of amazing churches and busineses. We also met a local inlay wood artist and saw his beautiful work. It was so fun! He showed us some wonderful places we wouldn't have found on our own.

A whole other side to Sorrento

Beautiful Sorrento
I'm sure it was great but our taxi driver didn't show up to take us to the tour so unfortunately we didn't attend.
Response from the operator: We understand the problem, but you did not participate to the tour and we are not responsible for car or cab transfer ! We did not get any message or phone call from your side because we could have chosen another date.

Highly recommend the Sorrento walking tour with a local!
We thoroughly enjoyed the Sorrento walking tour with a local we booked through Viator. Giulia, our tour guide, was amazing! She was born and raised in Sorrento. She took us to many unique spots throughout Sorrento and provided us with interesting information and answered our questions along the way. Sorrento is a wonderful city and we are so happy we booked this tour. Highly recommend!

Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local cost?
+
Prices start at $56 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 Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local 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 Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 460 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local?
+
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 Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local 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 Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local?
+
Around 161 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 Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local 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.
What is included in Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local?
+

Where is the meeting point for Secrets Walks of Sorrento with a Local?
