Overview

During this tour you will discover places different from other tours and immerse yourself in the land of mermaids with its myths and legends. You will admire the same panoramas that have inspired musicians, poets, composers, artists and inlayers. I will take you to where the famous songs were written, the films shot and the concerts staged. Together with the writers and artists of the grand tour from Goethe, to Ibsen enchanted by the beauty of its sea and its orange and lemon groves you will discover some of the typical products of the Sorrento citrus fruits: limoncello, mandarinello, orange marmalade, lemon marmalade, lemon ice cream, lemon granita. Finally, I will take you to the historic centre, among the craft shops and, if you feel like it, to one of the most beautiful Italian museums where the owner will show you the 19th century inlay jewels, from paintings to furniture. In a shop you can also buy an intarsia memorabilia to take home.
