Itinerary

1. 1

   Sorrento

   1h

   The olive oil mill/yard is known as an orchard of olive trees in the Sorrentinian Peninsula. The history of the production of olive oil dates back many years, even back to the times of Greek mythology. The old Greek inhabitants produced the olive oil by grinding the olives in an old mill, which were made of calcareous stone. The colonies used to prepare large jars of olive oil, which were produced in Sorrento and donated them to the Goddess of Athens at Punta Campanella and even since then olive oil has always been a part of their tradition. When walking around Sorrento and its surrounding areas you will notice the vast number of terraces in the hills. You will have the opportunity to taste and purchase various olive oil. As you are walking through a quiet, quaint lovely garden, the smell of the lemon and orange trees will tingle your senses as you take in the street aroma of citrus. You will have the opportunity to taste various flavors of limoncello which are very delightful.
