Top Sorrento Food Tours - page 3

I’ll start by saying we really loved this experience, we don’t drive so doing the trail another way would’ve been harder for us to get to. Meeting point is in the main square but was easy to find, we were divided into groups of 8 people and sent off with our guides. The trail itself starts from Bomerano and the route this tour takes is a circular back to the same point, with a viewpoint of Positano. The trail isn’t massively strenuous and there is a small bit of uphill walking. I’m unsure why but when we arrived we were given a different guide to the one who drove us, we were told usually we keep the same person. So we joined our new guide who was already with an Italian couple, the entire walk this couple led the way with the guide and kept overtaking everyone to be at the front which wasn’t a problem apart from at the overlook at Positano we stopped for no more than a couple minutes to take some photos. The guide set off ahead with the couple and left us and another couple from our group behind, the trail was busy being a weekend and we got stuck behind another tour group, another guide from a different group told us to hurry up but we explained we got stuck behind a group of walkers and he admitted that our guide should’ve waited to make sure where we were. This was on the way to the shepherds hut, the other guide then proceeded to leave us and take his group via another path and we had no idea whether to follow or stick to the path our guide took which was essentially a dirt path up a hill. We completely lost sight of our guide (and he clearly hadn’t looked for us) for a few minutes up to the shepherds hut. Other than that though, it was an enjoyable experience
