This tour takes place in Sorrento, a coastal town on the southern edge of the Bay of Naples in the Campania region of southern Italy. Sorrento sits on the Sorrento Peninsula, which separates the Bay of Naples from the Bay of Salerno and serves as the main gateway to the Amalfi Coast. The town is known internationally for its clifftop setting, lemon groves, and traditional crafts, but it is also home to a small and distinguished winemaking tradition centred on the Sorrento DOP designation. The peninsula's volcanic soils, sea breezes, and Mediterranean climate create conditions suited to the indigenous grape varieties used in DOP production. Sorrento is easily reached by ferry from Naples or Positano, by the Circumvesuviana railway from Naples, or by road along the SS145. It is a year-round destination with peak visitor seasons in spring and summer.
