Itinerary
Day 1
Arrival & meet‑and‑greet at your arrival point in Naples.
Arrive — Meet your driver at Naples International Airport (Capodichino)
On arrival at Naples International Airport (Capodichino) your driver will wait just outside the arrivals area holding a sign with your name. Plan to collect luggage and follow mobile reception instructions if you need to contact the driver.
Tips from local experts:
- Accessibility: Capodichino arrivals have elevators and step‑free routes — ask the airline for assistance if you need a ramp or lift at baggage reclaim.
- Communication: Save the driver’s local phone number or WhatsApp it to a family member; signal strength can drop near some gates so step outside to the arrivals hall if you miss the first call.
- Practical: The service includes 60 minutes complimentary waiting at the airport — if immigration or luggage is slow, tell the driver your flight number so they can track any delay.
Private transfer: Naples → Sorrento (door‑to‑door in a licensed vehicle)
Relax in a private, climate‑controlled vehicle while your professional driver takes the A3/SS145 coastal route to Sorrento. The driver handles tolls, parking and ZTL considerations so you can rest or enjoy the view.
Tips from local experts:
- Comfort: Request the quieter seats (rear middle can be smoother) and ask the driver to set climate control to a comfortable temperature — most cars provide adjustable vents.
- Luggage note: Italian law requires luggage in the trunk; confirm with the operator beforehand if you have oversized items to avoid last‑minute issues.
- Accessibility on route: Ask for a short comfort stop (bathroom and stretch) about halfway if you prefer — the driver can arrange an accessible service area with flat access.
Hotel drop‑off & check‑in — Hotel Antiche Mura (Sorrento)
Driver will drop you at the hotel main entrance or closest vehicle access point. For properties inside pedestrian zones, the driver will stop at the closest accessible meeting point agreed in advance.
Tips from local experts:
- ZTL/pedestrian areas: If your hotel is inside a pedestrian street, ask the operator to confirm the closest vehicle access point in advance so the driver can plan the exact drop‑off.
- Assistance: Tell your hotel ahead of arrival that an older guest needs help with luggage or a ground‑floor room — many Sorrento hotels offer porter assistance for seniors.
- Pacing: Use the first hour to sit down, hydrate and avoid unpacking heavy items right away — this reduces exertion after travel.
Accessible lunch & light orientation — Gran Caffè Tasso at Piazza Tasso
A short, mostly level walk to Piazza Tasso for a relaxed seated lunch at Gran Caffè Tasso — classic Neapolitan pastries, simple pasta and friendly service with accessible seating.
Tips from local experts:
- Seating: Ask for a ground‑floor table away from stairs; the café has step‑free access to parts of the dining area but confirm on arrival.
- Dietary needs: Staff are used to older guests — mention any chewing or salt restrictions and they will recommend softer dishes like risotto or delicate fish.
- Restrooms: Public restrooms near Piazza Tasso can be small; better to use the hotel's restroom before you leave or ask the café staff for their facilities which are usually cleaner and easier for seniors.
Gentle waterfront stroll — Marina Grande (short, mostly level promenade)
A calm 30–45 minute stroll or seated break at Marina Grande to enjoy sea air and coastal views without steep climbs. Plenty of benches and cafés close to the waterfront for rests.
Tips from local experts:
- Terrain: The promenade at Marina Grande is mostly flat and has benches — bring a light shawl as sea breezes can be cool in spring evenings.
- Transport: If walking is tiring, taxis are readily available from Piazza Tasso to Marina Grande — ask the hotel to prebook an accessible taxi if needed.
- Seating & shade: Choose a seaside café with shaded seating so you can sit and enjoy the view; staff know to help older guests with steps into some terraces.
