Sorrento Lemon Grove Tour: Tasting Local ProductsA guided tour through a traditional lemon grove on the Sorrento Peninsula, where you learn the cultivation techniques behind the IGP-protected oval lemon and taste homemade jams, Provolone del Monaco cheese, lemon-infused olive oil, citrus honey and limoncello. The tour lasts 45 minutes and includes a live English-speaking guide. You can add lunch or dinner in the grove's home restaurant after the tasting.Is it for me?Book the tour alone if you want the grove and the tasting in a single morning visit; add lunch or dinner if you'd like to stay longer and eat among the trees, with the lemon dishes extending what you've just learned about the fruit.
Amalfi Coast: Private Car Tour with Ravello & Praiano StopsYou’ll ride along winding Amalfi Coast roads with a local driver who knows every curve, pausing for photos in Praiano and wandering Ravello’s peaceful gardens and Duomo square.

Sorrento Cooking Class: Pasta, Tiramisu & LimoncelloA hands-on cooking class in Sorrento where you prepare ravioli alla caprese, Caprese salad and tiramisu under a chef's guidance, then learn the first steps of limoncello making by zesting fresh lemons from the garden. The class runs four hours, includes a welcome drink, lunch, wine and limoncello tasting, and finishes with a tour of the property's olive, lemon and orange groves. English-speaking instruction throughout.Is it for me?You're hands-on the whole time—making the pasta, building the salad, layering the dessert—so you leave knowing how to cook these dishes, not just having watched them come together. Book this if you want to work in the kitchen rather than observe, and if you'd rather spend the afternoon learning a skill than tasting your way through a menu someone else prepared.
Capri boat tour from Sorrento: Blue Grotto and 4 hours freeA full-day boat tour from Sorrento to Capri combines a guided visit to the Blue Grotto with 4 hours of free time to explore Anacapri, ride the Monte Solaro chairlift, or wander Capri Town.

Minimum 6 passengers per tour; private and shared options are available at checkout.Is it for me?Choose the private boat if your group wants the day to itself; choose the shared boat if you're traveling solo or prefer to meet other travelers. Either way, the 4 hours of free time on Capri means you're not locked into a guided itinerary—you can move at your own pace, skip what doesn't interest you, and spend as long as you want in whichever town appeals to you most.

You rejoin the boat at 3:15 PM for the return to Sorrento. A live guide in English, Spanish or Italian provides onboard commentary during the crossing and the boat tour. The Blue Grotto entrance ticket (€18 per person) is optional and purchased separately; if you choose it, wait times can reach two hours, which shortens your free time on the island.Is it for me?Choose the option with the Blue Grotto if you want to see inside the cave—just know the wait can take two hours, which cuts into your free time on the island. Without it, you keep all 5 hours to wander Anacapri's Villa Saint Michele and Mount Solaro chairlift, or spend the afternoon in Capri town's shops and squares without the queue.

The class runs about two hours in a small group on a terrace overlooking the Gulf of Sorrento, with pickup included and instruction in English or Italian.Is it for me?Two hours is short enough to fit into a morning or afternoon without eating up your whole day, but long enough to actually learn the technique and sit down to eat what you made—not a rushed demo or a tasting that leaves you hungry.
Capri Private Boat Tour: Sorrento, Positano & Amalfi with Swim StopsYou’ll feel Capri unfold from your own private boat—swim in hidden coves near grottos, pass under Faraglioni’s archway (maybe share a lucky kiss), snack on local treats with prosecco in hand, and get real tips from your skipper before relaxing back toward Sorrento or Positano. It’s less about checking sights off a list than letting yourself drift into island time.

Cooking Class & Wine Tasting at Cortecorbo WineryA hands-on cooking class at Cortecorbo Winery, a family-run vineyard in Irpinia, where you prepare traditional Italian dishes—wood-fired pizza or homemade ravioli and tiramisù—then sit down to a long lunch paired with six wines from the winery, including the prestigious Taurasi DOCG. The day includes a guided tour of the vineyards and cellar, and private transportation is available as an option at checkout.Is it for me?Book the pizza option if you want to work with the wood-fired oven and learn how Italians make pizza at home; choose ravioli and tiramisù if you prefer working with fresh pasta and a traditional dessert. Either way, you're cooking in a real kitchen with real equipment, not watching a demonstration—the hands-on work is what sets this apart from a standard winery lunch.
Sorrento Cooking Class & Wine Pairing: Fresh Pasta by SeaA three-hour cooking class in an 1800s villa in Sorrento where you prepare fresh tagliatelle and ravioli with a chef, then eat what you made in the garden under lemon trees while a sommelier guides you through local wines matched to each dish. The class includes equipment, lunch, wine tasting, and a recipe book; pickup is included from Sorrento, and children from age 3 are welcome.Is it for me?The guide teaches in English or Italian, so choose the language you're comfortable with when you book. If you speak neither fluently, confirm the guide's English level before committing, since the sommelier's wine explanations depend on understanding the pairing logic.
Capri boat tour from Sorrento: Faraglioni rocks and grottosA seven-hour private boat tour from Sorrento circles Capri, stopping at the Blue Grotto and Green Grotto, the Baths of Queen Giovanna, and Marina Piccola for free time ashore. The boat is yours alone for the day, which means you return on your own schedule instead of waiting for a ferry departure, and you can anchor for a swim whenever the water calls.Is it for me?The boat is yours alone for the day, which means you skip the ferry crowds and the fixed departure times that come with them. If you want to swim off the rocks, linger at Marina Piccola or simply move at your own pace, a private boat makes that possible in a way a shared ferry never does.
Pompeii & Vesuvius Day Trip from Sorrento with Skip-the-LineYou’ll walk ancient streets in Pompeii with a local guide who brings lost stories to life, then ride up Mt.

The seven-hour duration means you can spend the morning and afternoon on the water and still have time to rest before dinner.
Sorrento to Capri: Private Speedboat Tour, Grottoes & SwimYou’ll zip from Sorrento to Capri by private speedboat with stops for swimming in clear coves and exploring famous grottoes like Blue Grotto (entry extra).
