The route from Naples Airport follows the A3 motorway south through the Vesuvius corridor, then the SS145 along the peninsula coast. Sant'Agnello is 5 minutes closer to Naples than Sorrento centre, so the drive typically takes 60–65 minutes in normal traffic. Your driver meets you at the arrivals hall with a name sign, loads your luggage into the boot, and drops you directly at your hotel — whether on Corso Italia or down by Marinella beach. All vehicles are air-conditioned with Wi-Fi and phone chargers.
A private transfer beats the Circumvesuviana train on every measure that matters after a flight. The train takes 70 minutes, has no luggage storage, no air conditioning in summer, and drops you at the station — still a walk or taxi ride from most hotels. The private car collects you at the airport gate, handles your bags, and delivers you door-to-door. Child seats are available at no extra charge, and the driver monitors your flight in real time to adjust for any delays.
Sant'Agnello offers the best of Sorrento without the crowds — the centre is a pleasant 10-minute walk from Piazza Tasso, yet the atmosphere is quieter and more residential. The town has its own train station, supermarkets, and excellent restaurants along Via Crawford. From Sant'Agnello: [Capri day trips](/capri-boat-tour-from-sorrento) (ferry port 10 min), [boat tours](/boat-tour-amalfi-coast), and [Pompeii](/blog/pompeii-tour-from-sorrento) (25 min by train). Many of the peninsula's best-rated hotels sit along the cliff edge here, offering panoramic bay views at lower prices than Sorrento centre.
