Itinerary

Your tour begins in central Sorrento

Meet your professional chef in central Sorrento to begin your culinary adventure. Start with a refreshing welcome drink and light bruschetta as the group prepares for a comfortable transfer into the hills for a day of fresh flavors and coastal scenery.

Sample artisanal local olive oils

Before the cooking begins, enjoy a guided tasting of premium extra virgin oils crafted at a family-run mill. Listen as your guide helps you recognize high-quality pressings then sample unique infusions featuring rosemary, chili pepper, and the world-famous lemons that define the Sorrento coastline. Then take a stroll through the gardens as your guide shares the ingredients needed for your meal.

Master the art of handmade pasta

Roll up your sleeves for a hands-on workshop using fresh vegetables and fragrant herbs. Learn the delicate process of crafting ravioli from scratch, assembling a vibrant Caprese salad, and finding the balance required for a perfect tiramisu, all while picking up expert tips on traditional Italian techniques from your chef guide.

Mix your own authentic limoncello

Discover the secrets behind Sorrento's most famous digestif during a practical demonstration. Zest local citrus fruits and blend them with spirits to create a genuine limoncello, following the traditional method used by local families for centuries.

Savor your creations with wine pairings

Gather around the table to enjoy the multi-course feast you helped prepare. Each dish is thoughtfully paired with local wines selected to enhance the Mediterranean flavors, ending with a celebratory taste of chilled limoncello as you discuss the day's successes.

Your tour finishes back in central Sorrento

After a relaxing lunch and a surprise seasonal recipe from the chef, return by included transfer back to the original meeting point feeling accomplished, full, and ready to recreate authentic Italian flavors in your own kitchen.
