Path of the Gods guided hikes: compare every tour from Sorrento
The best Path of the Gods tour to book
If you want the whole experience — pickup, guide, the walk, logistics done — book the Transfers + Guide at €80 per person. A minibus collects you from Tasso square in Sorrento, drives you to Bomerano, a guide leads you down the trail to Nocelle, and the return transfer gets you back by evening. It’s the most-booked option, highly rated (4.8 from 595 reviews), and runs daily. Want to go alone or save money? The shuttle transfer below gets you to the trailhead for €185 per vehicle; you hike back solo.

From a small-group classic hike to the private walking tour to the minibus transfer alone, here is every tour worth taking. All cover the same ~7.8 km trail from Bomerano to Nocelle; they differ in whether they include transfers, a guide, and group size.

The shuttle runs from Positano (not Sorrento) and is €185 per vehicle, not per person, so it makes sense for groups. If you’re hiking solo, the €80 Transfers + Guide from Sorrento is better value.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a Path of the Gods guided hike?
The most popular tour — Transfers + Guide from Sorrento — costs €80 per person. A private walking tour is €125 per person, and if you only want the shuttle transfer, that's €185 per vehicle (your group). All are bookable above with free cancellation.
Can I hike the Path of the Gods alone?
Yes. The trail is free and open year-round. If you have a good sense of direction and are fine with bus timetables, you can reach Bomerano by public bus from Sorrento or Amalfi. But if you don't want to puzzle out SITA bus schedules or carry your passport to prove age for some conductors, a tour with transfers is simpler.
Which Path of the Gods tour should I book?
For most visitors the Transfers + Guide (€80) from Sorrento is the best choice. You get a guide, a minibus pickup and return, no bus timetables to worry about, and it's the most-booked option. For groups, the private tour gives you flexibility. For confident hikers who only need logistics, the shuttle gets you to the start.
Do I need to book ahead?
It's wise to book at least a day ahead, especially in peak season (Apr–Jun, Sep–Oct). Same-day slots do open sometimes, but morning departures fill first. Free cancellation up to 24 hours before helps.
