The Basics

Travelers visit the island of Ischia, the largest in the Gulf of Naples, to relax in the thermal spas, explore the 21 miles (34 kilometers) of coastline, hike the peak of Mt. Epomeo, and dine at its waterfront restaurants. You can tour Ischia island by sea on a boat tour that also stops at the tiny island of Procida nearby or by land on a food and wine tasting tour.

My favorite excursion yet!
What a fantastic time! We’ve traveled around Europe and have done many organized tours and excursions but this one will go down as our favorite. The Captain and cooks were such fun, and the food was 5 stars. We swam in the sea and took in all of the beautiful sites along the way. We cannot wait to come back and do this again. Grazie Mille!

Ischia Food Tastings & Sightseeing: Private Day Trip from Sorrento Port
Paolo was a fantastic guide. He was very knowledgeable with the history of the island and where all the great food is served. We went to a local bakery where we tried their freshly baked bread. YUM!!! After a complete tour of this beautiful island we enjoyed a late lunch at one of the local restaurants along with two great bottles of wine.
Great way to spend a day in Ischia.

We had a lovely day touring around the island with GG. The weather wasn’t good enough to swim or snorkel unfortunately but GGdid a good job Draco the island, towns, history and interesting caves and other sites. We had the boat to ourselves so it was especially great.
Amazing way to see Ischia and Procida!

Ischia and Procida boat tour from Sorrento
We had the most wonderful time visiting Procida and Ischia on this tour, with our guide Alfonso. Pickup was prompt and the boat was incredibly clean. Alphonso did a great job touring us, providing drinks, and gave time to swim at beautiful locations at each island. It was great to have free time to explore both islands; we visited Palazzo d'Avalos in Procida and the amazing Castello Aragonese in Ischia. This was our second tour with the company 'You Know!' and highly recommend them!

Ischia and Procida boat tour from Sorrento
Great experience! The boat was nice, clean, and spacious enough for the group of 12 to spread out comfortably. We stopped at procida and ischia for a few hours each to walk around. When we got back on the boat, we were able to swim at both places from the boat. They serve sandwich lunch with plenty of snacks and drinks throughout. Our guides were amazing and attentive. Very long day but highly worth it.

Paolo made this an experience to remember. A local in Ischia, his knowledge of the island, it’s history and it’s hidden gems was second to none. A highlight of our trip, Ischia is special, we will be back

Ischia Private Day Stress Free Tour From Sorrento
This was managed very well and our guide was very gratified and knowledgeable about the island. Ischia is beautiful. We were informed that there could be a stop before ischia, which there was. My only comments are: it was a very hot day and the AC in the minivan was not the greatest. The tour ended at 3:20 and the ferry to leave was at 5:20, so we just hung out at the port for a bit till it came.
Amazing!

When to Get There

Ischia can be very crowded in summer between June and September, so spring and fall—when the weather is warm but the crowds have yet to arrive—are the best times to visit.

Beach Views on Ischia

There are a number of lovely beaches along the coast—the most famous include Sant'Angelo below Serrara Fontana, Maronti Beach near Barano d'Ischia, and Citara near Panza. The imposing 15th-century Aragonese Castle (Castello Aragonese) at Ischia Ponte and the English-style La Mortella Gardens in Forio are also popular attractions. Ischia is also close enough to the coast of southern Italy to offer lovely views along the coastline and over Mt. Vesuvius.
