The Sorrento Coast vista is characterised by the erratic and rocky coastline, the lush hills, the beautiful sea, and the profile of Vesuvius. This region is stunning and full of culture.
Take a walk through the pathways of its towns and cities to genuinely grasp why so many people fall madly in love with it. Rent luxury villas on rentals in Italy so you can opt for top-degree accommodations.
Here are some of the exciting things you can do while visiting Sorrento.
Experience Sorrento’s Local Food
You must taste the local pasta whenever you’re planning a trip to Italy, and while visiting Sorrento pasta is an essential in addition to the usual fresh seafood that is abundant on the southern shore.
Authentic comfort food is Gnocchi alla Sorrentina, which consists of pillowy Gnocchi in a hearty tomato sauce with basil and Parmesan on top. Bring your stretchiest clothing since eating your way across the city is one of the best things to do in Sorrento. I guarantee that the flavourings are worth every calorie.
Relish A Boat Trip
I’d argue that taking a boat tour is among the top three things to do in Sorrento. A boat tour along the Sorrentine Peninsula is an absolute requirement and is particularly delightful at sunset. The majority of journeys leave Marina Piccola. Book a private small group boat tour, or a britannia cruise ship that includes swimming at Regina Giovanna beach, close-up views of a magnificent waterfall, and champagne for a truly luxurious experience.
Take Cooking Classes
Italian travel is all about cuisine. A local cooking lesson is among the most memorable things to do in Sorrento for groups of friends, couples, and families.
There are many choices to choose from. You get a sparkling cocktail upon arrival, sample some local meat and cheese, and learn how to cook an Italian pasta dish and dessert. You can also drink wine while you cook in Sorrento.
Visit Local Farm
If the hustle and bustle of Sorrento get too much for you, take a trip to a nearby farm and eat a traditional meal to get down to the essentials. You can sample organic foods like olive oil, limoncello and cheese while experiencing Italian rural life on a family-run farm.
Go Parasailing
Have you ever viewed Sorrento from above? You must go parasailing for an exhilarating view! A solo, tandem, or triple parasail flight can be scheduled. This excursion includes a 12-minute flight that offers stunning views of the Bay of Naples, a 90-minute boat cruise, safety gear, and soft beverages.
Purchase Lemon Souvenir
It doesn’t take long to realise that anything lemon-flavoured is the ideal keepsake to bring home from Sorrento. Lemon-flavoured candies, ceramics, fridge magnets, lemon-patterned clothing, and embroidered rattan purses. You will be surprised by the size of the citrus fruits in Sorrento because it is surrounded by lemon groves.
Take The Tourist Train
In a 45 minute tour of the city on the white Sorrento sightseeing “train”, you get to visit some of the city’s main tourist attractions while listening to a guide over your headset. You can board the train from Piazza Lauro, which is just across from the station.
