We are staying at Hotel Delfino and will need to take a cab from Sorrento train station to the Hotel. Does anyone know how expensive they are? Thanks

Very, unless you're extremely careful. Make sure that they use the meter, AND that's it's on the right setting (1).

I never found the taxi drivers to be dishonest in Sorrento. It will probably be about $25 or $30.

My husband drives. Mainly because we are Australian and those pesky Europeans drive on the 'wrong' side of the road and that's the bit that terrifies me. Especially as the controls and rear vision mirror are also reversed. He does a good job, we initially hired a car on Santorini so that his first experience could be on quiet streets. We've only had one truly awful experience, when he looked the wrong way (the way he would usually look) when backing out of a driveway and we nearly collected a car coming past!

I think you will probably have a happier trip if you stick with what you are used to. Be prepared to stop often so that your hb can enjoy the views etc instead of just seeing the cars in front.

So sorry - posted this in the wrong place - please ignore me!!!! I was thinking of another post I was just reading.

Ask the Delfino how much you should expect to pay. I also don't think the taxi drivers in Sorrento are dishonest, but I do think the meter rates are high.

Thanks for the information. I will ask the Hotel. I emailed them about their tours and they responded fairly fast so I think they will be very helpful.
