Oil, Cheese And Lemon Tour

Posted By : Renee_D
We were disappointed with this tour. We were expecting a tour of a lemon farm and Limoncello tasting. However, this was more of a walking tour of Sorrento. Although it was very informative, we spent 2 1/2 hours walking through the downtown area (not what we were hoping for). Our tour guide also took us into quite a few random stores which was odd.
We only spent 20 minutes at the lemon garden.

Brilliant just brilliant. We were not initially sure whether a guided tour would be for us but this has changed our opinions for sure, it was worth every penny.

Seeing the town from locals' viewpoint and meeting people and artisan crafters that we wouldn't have even known existed if we had not been taken around some of the smaller roads and away from the main thoroughfare. Our guide, Nino, really helped bring the town and architecture to life showing us things that we would have just walked by and not even noticed otherwise. As for the cheese, meat, wine, and oil tasting, ...wow probably the tastiest food we had all holiday!

One to be aware of though is that there is a good amount of walking so if you are not great at your feat this particular tour may not be for you

Alessandra was an amazing tour guide. The stops along the tour were things we would not have found on our own.

The train was delayed due to flooding and we asked if we could push the tour back an hour, do the tour on our own unguided, come back the next day or get a refund. No to all.

Today we went on the oil, cheese and lemon tour with a wonderful guide, Antonino. I expected just to taste some local products, which we did. What was even more interesting was the history and traditions of Sorrento that Antonino explained to us all along the way. I learned so much about this lovely town. Antonino was a great storyteller and a wealth of information.
On a side note, my husband and I missed the beginning of the tour due to a miscommunication on the starting time. When I called the office and found out the tour had qlready left, the office reached out to Antonino and I couldn't believe but HE CAME BACK FOR US! and he still took us through everything we had missed in the first 15 minutes without ever making us feel bad for inconveniencing him. His kindness was truly appreciated.

Our guide was so knowledgeable and engaging! What a wonderful tour. We learned so much about Sorrento and it’s old town architecture, culture and crafts. The final hour was devoted to tasting local specialties like fresh cheese, wine and lemoncello! Outstanding!!

Nino shared the history of his great city and how the lemons became a central part of its heritage. The Roman history and its presence remains a strong part of daily life. We became travelers instead of tourists and learned a great deal. We tasted local lemon juice, lemon cello, local cheeses influenced by the lemons and did a bit of shopping along the way. We saw the hidden architecture columns and archways from early Roman times.
