Experience Sorrentine Traditions - Small Group Tour

This is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in an experience that involves all your senses: stroll through one of the famous lemon groves on the Sorrento coast, taste the famous limoncello made from this precious fruit, visit a farm and marvel at the production process of the famous Monaco DOP provolone cheese, made according to ancient tradition by one of the area's historic families, which has been dedicated to this activity for generations.
