About this experience
Discover the enchanting heart of the Sorrento Peninsula, with its charming stone streets and breathtaking views. This is the perfect place to take a stroll while tasting the most delicious foods and drinks of the region. The experience begins with an Italian aperitif: a refreshing Spritz, or perhaps wine or prosecco, accompanied by a selection of local cured meats, cheeses and bruschetta topped with fresh tomatoes.
Continuing your stroll, you'll arrive at our favorite wine shop, where you can sample three of the finest wines from the area, all in a historic underground cellar.
Next, your local guide will take you through the scenic Valley of the Mills before arriving at one of the most characteristic pastry shops where you can taste traditional Sorrento sweets. The tasting journey through the historic center wraps up with a chilled glass of limoncello.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
