Meet your guide at the pier and board a comfortable minibus for a scenic drive into the heart of Sorrento. Perched atop dramatic white cliffs overlooking the Bay of Naples, this charming town has captivated travelers for more than 2,000 years with its sweeping sunsets and the fragrant scent of its orange and lemon groves.
Enjoy a guided walk through Sorrento's historic center, wandering along its colorful streets and discovering its most treasured landmarks. Visit the 15th-century Romanesque Cathedral dedicated to Saints Giacomo and Filippo. Pause in lively Piazza Tasso, the vibrant hub of local life, and take in a breathtaking panorama of the Gulf of Naples.
Continue to a traditional farmhouse, where modern local lemon farmers will introduce you to the cultivation techniques behind Sorrento's world-famous lemons. Walk among the terraced groves, learn about the production process, and savor a tasting of fresh, locally made specialties.
With the lingering scent of citrus and sweet memories in hand, return to the pier and rejoin your ship.
