Full Description

The tour is an authentic experience through the real life of the Sorrento Peninsula.

Tour

The first part ends with homemade limoncello, a typical Italian liqueur. You will be able to see and learn the family recipe by participating in the demonstration and tasting it. At the end of the first part, we will move by a “Ferrari” called APE CALESSINO to the nearby dairy farm called IL TURUZIELLO to participate in a guided tour of the farm, starting from the organic feeding of livestock to the mozzarella production show. You will be able to taste freshly made mozzarella di fiore di latte, two-hour-old ricotta, milk consumed in 15 minutes such as CACIOTTINA, and you will be able to taste the real typical aged cheese called PROVOLONE DEL MONACO DOP, all accompanied by a glass of local organic wine.
