From Rome
​
Travelling from Rome to Sorrento is easiest by taking a high‑speed train to Naples with either Frecciarossa (Trenitalia) or Italo. Both offer fast, comfortable services with a journey time of around 1 hour 15 minutes.
​
Frecciarossa: https://www.trenitalia.com
Italo: https://www.italotreno.it
​
When searching, select “Roma Termini” → “Napoli Centrale.” For the high‑speed trains, look for a journey time under 1 hour 15 minutes to ensure you’re choosing the correct service and not an Intercity. Intercity trains are cheaper and perfectly fine, but they take longer and are less comfortable.
​
Seats are assigned on all trains, and tickets must be purchased before boarding. Prices increase as the travel date approaches, so it’s best to book as early as possible. High‑speed trains usually run on time, but as with rail services worldwide, occasional delays can happen.
​
Once you arrive in Naples, please note that although most of the distance has already been covered, the final stretch from Naples to Sorrento takes longer. You can continue by local train or book a private transfer
​

Prices vary by company, but as a guide, services typically range from €550–€800 per vehicle, depending on the provider and vehicle size. The journey time is approximately 4–5 hours, depending on traffic as you approach the Sorrento peninsula.
