Sorrento is a beautiful town perched on a cliff overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. Disabled visitors can get from the dock to the town above using an elevator located at the west end of the shore.

Alternatively, disabled cruise passengers can hop on one of the accessible ferries to Capri or Naples. And who could forget about the most famous sight in the region…the Pompeii ruins?
Sage Travel Tip: Start your day in Pompeii, Capri, Naples, or the Amalfi Coast, so you can relax in the afternoon in Sorrento.

I gave the Sorrento cruise port a 4 Star Sage Accessibility Rating because disabled passengers (even those with heavy electric wheelchair) have step-free routes to reach the town. It did not get a higher rating because the town has cobblestones in many parts of it.
