Positano was worth a visit
We appreciated Massimo’s flexibility. At the beginning he gave us the choice of two short visits to Amalfi and Positano or longer time at Positano with time for dinner. We chose the second and enjoyed the slower pace. He offered to take lots of photos for us and had great music with playing in the air conditioned van. The only negative was that it was a lot ot money essentially for a transfer to Positano and back to Sorrento.

Not what we expected
With all the five star reviews, I truly hate being ‘that’ person who is the lone dissenter, and I hesitated writing this review, but this experience was not what we expected. Let me first say it’s not entirely the company’s fault. In fact, I’d say most of it was our fault because we thought we were going to experience a boat cruise, not a car ride. We were led to believe that from viator, who we booked with, but that’s a whole other issue. With that said, the company is not entirely blameless. For starters, the tour was described as being five hours with an English speaking driver. We were picked up at 5 and dropped off at 9, so not five hours. When the driver arrived, whose name was Fernando, I asked him if he was also the boat captain and he didn’t understand what I meant. Then as we were driving it was clear we weren’t going to the port, so I again asked about the boat tour. He didn’t understand (his English was minimal), but eventually we were able to communicate and he had me speak to his boss, who I assume is massimo. He explained the tour was strictly by car. We were all disappointed and frankly felt a little ripped off. At more than $600, we could easily have taken a ferry for far less and as an added bonus seen the coast from the sea, which is what we wanted. I would never have booked a car for the hour ride as I tend to get motion sickness, particularly on narrow, curving roads. As for it being a ‘tour’, I’d say that’s a bit of a stretch. Fernando stopped twice for some pictures, but that’s not a tour by most standards. But let me be clear…Fernando was very pleasant (except he asked us several times to make sure we give a five star review) and clearly cares about his job and the experiences of the customers. None of our negative feelings were his fault, but his English was about as good as my Italian, which is minimal, and he could have given us more time in Positano (we never got to Amalfi, but we took a ferry the next day to get there. And here’s a tip for those of you who have read this far: take the bus in Amalfi to Ravello. It’s the prettiest town around and not super crowded). While in Italy for nearly three weeks, we participated in several tours and experiences and fortunately this was the only one where we felt like we had been taken advantage of.

Sunset to Almafi and Positano and Sorrento
Angelo was our driver and he was amazing! He took plenty of stops along the way at scenic overlooks giving us great photos and memories. With the wild roads we felt extremely safe the entire time. He had some fun stories to share and was a great person.
Response from the operator: Hi, thank you for taking time to leave a review and share your experience with other potential clients. We’re glad you had a good time with our driver. Do not hesitate to contact us again if you come back in town :)

This tour is absolutely...
This tour is absolutely NOT a good value, and that’s putting it mildly. I was led to believe that it was a sunset boat tour, but it was simply a car that drove us to Positano. Our driver was super sweet and eager to please, but we were nonetheless disappointed to learn it was just a car and not a boat tour. I can’t imagine why anyone would pay this kind of money (it was $600) just to go to Positano when you can take a ferry for less than $50, plus have the experience of seeing the towns from a different vantage point. Our driver told us we could go to both Positano and Amalfi and spend one hour at each location, or just go to Positano and spend two hours. We choose the later and returned to Sorrento at nine, not ten as described in their info. I feel completely ripped off by this experience and it has soured my view of Viator.

Sunset tour
The driver have a lot of limitations to communicate in English . Unfortunately was a little disorganized the tour. There is no sunset view.

Why this scores 43
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Sunset Tour in Positano and Amalfi from Sorrento by car: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Sunset Tour in Positano and Amalfi from Sorrento by car cost?
+
Prices start at $646 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 Sunset Tour in Positano and Amalfi from Sorrento by car take?
+
Plan for about 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 Sunset Tour in Positano and Amalfi from Sorrento by car worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 43 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Sunset Tour in Positano and Amalfi from Sorrento by car?
+
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 Sunset Tour in Positano and Amalfi from Sorrento by car suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Sunset Tour in Positano and Amalfi from Sorrento by car?
+
Around 4 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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sunset Tour in Positano and Amalfi from Sorrento by car 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 Pizza School with Wine and Limoncello Tasting in a Local Farm, Private Amalfi Coast Day Tour from Sorrento or Naples, Sorrento Farm and Food Experience including Olive Oil, Limoncello, Wine 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.
