Detailed itinerary

This city is fascinating and romantic, its strategic position on the peninsula allows us to enjoy an extraordinary panorama everywhere, Sorrento is located in front of the bay of Naples. Its characteristic historic center is a maze of very interesting streets where there is the church of San Francesco, a 14th century building with a quiet cloister. Sorrento is famous for its "lemon delights" and for its typical "limoncello" liqueur that you can taste while visiting its small shops in the city. In this case we will go for the tasting directly at the source of limoncello production in a typical local farm. The staff, in addition to a brief company introduction, will explain the steps of the lemon harvest and will illustrate the production technique they follow to prepare their prestigious liqueurs. Afterwards you will take a seat inside or outside among the lemon trees, to start the tasting, you can taste four different liqueurs, other delights to be discovered on the spot and finally the famous lemon ice cream. Later if we have time available and according to the availability of the farm, you can take a relaxing walk in the green surrounded by lemon and orange trees.

This small and wonderful city was built perpendicularly and completely overlooks the sea, offering impressive panoramas. Usually to reach the shores of the beaches on foot, you have to walk its long and typical stairways, but don't worry because our cars are authorized to move between the small streets of Positano. During the visit you can visit its many souvenir and clothing shops, as well as those of ceramic and terracotta made and painted by hand. Positano is a welcoming and very picturesque place. Every corner deserves a souvenir photo, this is guaranteed!
