Sorrento Countryside Experience: Lemons, Mozzarella & Pizza
Discover the different sides of Sorrento: the authenticity of its countryside and the glamour od the town centre. There is no better way to immerse yourself in the Italian food culture than exploring the vivid yellow lemon groves that have been cultivated here for centuries.
Start your day with a visit to an organic historical lemon-farm, walking through the citrus and olive groves and learning about the farm’s history, production and traditional farming techniques. Enjoy then the farm’s products: fresh lemonade, orange and lemon homemade jams, extra virgin olive oil with homemade bread. Try here the real homemade Limoncello, the Italian liqueur par excellence.
Join a Limoncello making demonstration and tasting, learn the family recipe.
Jump on our beautiful Ape Calessino, the only type vehicle able to fit and go through the local narrow alleyways. Reach the close mozzarella and cheese-farm for a farm guided tour and Mozzarella making show. Here you can sample and enjoy the freshly made “fior di latte mozzarella”, ricotta, caciottina. There’ll be also a tasting of the Provolone del Monaco Dop aged cheese, all accompanied by a glass of organic wine.
After teasing your palate, it is time for an hands-on pizza making class. Learn how to make a typical Neapolitan Pizza Margherita and then sink your teeth into the creations followed by homemade dessert and coffee.
After this rural experience with tastings, if you wish you’ll be taken to Sorrento town centre where you’ll be able to spend some free time: here, on your own, you could walk to the old fishing village, through the colourful alleyways, rich of local art crafts, savour the local hand made gelato.
