Step into a working Sorrentine lemon grove overlooking the Bay of Naples, tour the fragrant terraced orchards with an artisan producer, and craft your own limoncello in a private distillery masterclass. The taste of the Amalfi hinterland, distilled.
What to expect
A private transfer drops you in Sorrento's hillside lemon belt, where the producer walks you through IGP-certified Femminello Ovale lemon cultivation — the variety behind all authentic limoncello. You pick fruit, smell the cold-press oils, and then enter the small distillery where the family explains the maceration process. The masterclass has you measuring, blending, and bottling your own 500 ml personalised limoncello to carry home. The session closes with a tasting of the full liqueur range paired with sfogliatella pastries on a terrace above the bay.
Good to know
Sorrento is 45–50 mins by private transfer or circumvesuviana from Naples. Book the masterclass directly via limonoro.it at least 1–2 weeks ahead. Bottles are well-packaged for hand luggage. Half-day activity; pairs beautifully with a Sorrento town stroll before returning to port.
