Sorrento was one of my favorite cities in Italy. I felt very safe there, and the people were very kind (I felt safe even as a lone woman at night). I recommend Sorrento as a great base for visiting other places on the Amalfi coast.
Posted: August 1, 2023Sorrento was my base during the tour of the Amalfi Coast, and it was an unforgettable experience. I made day trips to Amalfi, Positano, Capri, and Pompeii. Sorrento is such a charming and safe city, with excellent restaurants under lemon trees, exceptionally tasty and fresh seafood with excellent wine, very delicious dessert and inexpensive, beautiful beaches, great shopping, and many such nice hotels with a wonderful breakfast and a good price.

I was in Sorrento alone and I recommend: - a one-day trip to Capri, you can get there by ferry from the port in Sorrento - Path of the Gods, which can be included in a tour along the Amalfi coast, the views are incredible, and the hike isn't too difficult. I recommend starting in Bomerano, because the bus will take you there most of the way, and then it's a fairly easy walk down or on flat terrain - Mount Vesuvius and the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum, all easily accessible by train and bus, plenty of information online and people are really helpful.
