About this tour

This 3-hour 20-minute tour takes you through Sorrento's countryside to taste the region's most celebrated flavours. You'll wander a working lemon grove, sip fresh lemonade, then bump along in a vintage Ape three-wheeler to a family farm where a cheesemaker demonstrates traditional mozzarella production. The afternoon builds toward a generous tasting: award-winning Provolone, warm ricotta, local wine, estate olive oil, homemade cake and limoncello. It's a genuine taste of how Sorrentine families have eaten for generations.

  • Historic lemon grove walk with fresh-pressed lemonade
  • Vintage Ape Calessino ride through rolling countryside

What to expect

You'll begin among the lemon trees where your guide explains the fruit's importance to Sorrentine culture. After refreshment, the Ape ride climbs toward the farm—a gentle, quirky journey offering views across the peninsula. At the farm, you'll watch the cheesemaker at work, seeing curds transform into mozzarella. The tasting follows naturally: oils, cheeses and wines are presented unhurried, paired with bread. Local producers supply most items. Allow time to chat with the family and ask questions. The pace is leisurely; this works for families with small children.

Good to know

Prams and strollers are welcome on the lemon grove section, though the Ape holds limited passengers—check numbers with the operator. Infants must sit on a lap during the drive. Wear comfortable shoes for uneven terrain. Public transport stops are nearby if you prefer to meet the group on-site.
