About this tour

What to expect
You'll board a jetfoil at Sorrento's port and arrive in Ischia within 40 minutes. A guide meets you dockside to begin a morning exploring the island by private minivan—first stopping for a sfogliatella, then climbing to Mount Epomeo's panoramic point. Descend to Fontana, a quiet inland village known for wine production, where you'll sit down to lunch with locally made pasta and regional wine. The afternoon takes you to Sant'Angelo, a pastel-coloured harbour village where narrow alleys slope toward the sea. You'll have time to stroll freely before the return jetfoil journey to Sorrento.
Good to know
Wear comfortable walking shoes, especially for Sant'Angelo's steep lanes. Jetfoil fares to and from Sorrento are not included; book these separately. Notify the operator of any dietary requirements or mobility needs when reserving. Hotel pickup isn't offered, but provide your accommodation details so they can contact you if needed.
