Three-hour farm experience combining a lemon grove walk, mozzarella making and a pizza class.
The Sorrento Food Tour on a Real Farm is run by Farm Experiences and Tours (farmexperiencestours.com), an operator offering working-farm experiences in Italy. It takes place at a farm in Colli di Fontanelle, in the hills above Sorrento in Campania, about ten minutes from the town. The exact address is given at booking.
The three-hour programme combines several elements of Sorrentine farm life. Visitors walk through lemon groves, watch and take part in making fresh mozzarella and then make and bake a Pizza Margherita. Tastings round out the visit and include organic olive oil, local wine and limoncello. The mix leans savoury, with mozzarella and pizza as the main items, while limoncello and the fruit of the groves supply the sweet and citrus notes.
Pricing starts at about EUR 128 (roughly USD 147) per person. The price covers the farm visit, the grove walk, the mozzarella and pizza activities and the tastings of olive oil, wine and limoncello. Transport to and from Sorrento is not stated as included, so visitors should plan how to reach Colli di Fontanelle. Gratuities and extra purchases of farm products are additional.
Group size and language are set by the operator and confirmed at booking; sessions are generally run in English. Visitors with dietary restrictions, including lactose intolerance or gluten sensitivity, should contact the operator in advance because cheese and pizza dough are central to the programme. The pace is relaxed and hands-on, with time outdoors in the groves. The experience runs year-round, though lemons are at their best from March to August. The operator takes enquiries by WhatsApp on +351 911 701 055 and publishes details on its Sorrento food tour page.
