About this tour
A three-hour culinary ramble through residential Sorrento that bypasses the tourist circuit. Your guide shepherds you between neighbourhood establishments where you'll taste several regional dishes—think aubergine parmigiana alongside local wines—each with stories about the traditions that built them. Everything comes from seasonal, local stock. Homemade puddings and limoncello round things out. Walking distances between venues are short; food is the real focus here.
Highlights
- Eggplant parmigiana with provenance and backstory
- Seasonal produce sourced from local suppliers
- Acclaimed Sorrento wines paired throughout
- Family-recipe desserts and limoncello
- Insider knowledge of everyday local eating habits
- Residential Sorrento, away from cruise-ship crowds
What to expect
You'll meet your guide and wander a few blocks of quiet Sorrento, stopping at hole-in-the-wall spots locals actually frequent. Each venue serves a different course or tasting plate—bring genuine hunger. Wine pours accompany the food; coffee and tea appear mid-tour. The guide talks through what you're eating: which ingredient travels three streets over, why this dish matters to the neighbourhood, how long the family has been making it. Distances between stops are negligible, so there's no real hiking element. Expect to spend most time seated, eating and listening.
Good to know
