What Makes Sorrento Special
Sorrento sits on the edge of a cliff above the Bay of Naples, looking across at Vesuvius on one side and down the Amalfi Coast on the other. It has been pulling people in since the ancient Greeks settled here, and the Romans built their villas along the same cliffs that tourists photograph today. The old city sits behind medieval walls, its streets laid out in a grid that hasn’t changed much in two thousand years.
The historic center is where Sorrento actually lives. Narrow alleyways called vicoletti run between 18th-century buildings, opening onto small piazzas and hidden courtyards. The Sedil Dominova, the only remaining seat of the 14th-century civic chiefs of the Campania region, still stands on one corner. A lemon grove that has been here for over 150 years sits quietly behind one of the city’s oldest restaurant facades, one of the last left in the center of town.
Sorrento is also the most practical base on this stretch of coastline. Capri, Pompeii and the towns of the Amalfi Coast are all within easy reach. But the city rewards those who slow down and stay within its walls long enough to find what’s actually there.

A private Sorrento food tour means just you, your group, and your guide, no strangers, no fixed pace, no compromises. Available for 2 to 12 guests (larger groups accommodated on request) with a flexible morning or afternoon start time you choose.
