  Street down to the Marina Grande, Sorrento
by toonsarah
 
 

I’m not sure whether this should be a general tip or a warning, but do note that the streets that lead down to the water in Sorrento are steep in places and would be hard for anyone with walking difficulties to manage. In places there are steps and almost everywhere cobbles. On the steepest stretch down to the Marina Grande a handrail is provided, but if you need more help than that you should consider taking the little tourist train which we saw a couple of times. I didn’t find out its exact route but as I saw it both in the main Piazza Tasso and down by the harbour, you can be sure it links the two – I presume by the same longer way down that the cars we also saw in the harbour area had taken.

Review Helpfulness: 4.5 out of 5 stars
