It sits within the UNESCO-listed Amalfi Coast cultural landscape, celebrated for its dramatic topography and centuries of human-made terraces and routes.The “main section” is typically described as around 6–8 km and about 3–4 hours depending on pace and the exact variant, with uneven surfaces and some uphill/downhill stretches. With Sorrento Voyage, you get the best version: private guiding (no rushing, no waiting) plus private transportation planning including the crucial decision of whether to end in Nocelle or continue down to Positano. ## Program Tour ### Private pick-up (Sorrento / Positano / Amalfi) Start from your hotel/villa (or an agreed meeting point). Sorrento Voyage provides premium sedans and Mercedes V-Class vehicles, ideal for couples, families, and groups of friends, ensuring a smooth, air-conditioned ride. We recommend early starts for better pacing and a calmer trail experience. ### Scenic transfer to the trailhead (Bomerano – Agerola) Your driver takes you to Bomerano (Agerola), where the classic route begins (often referenced around Piazza Capasso).
