What you can expect

Experience the authentic flavours and traditions of Southern Italy with a guided visit to a historic family-run dairy farm in the hills of the Sorrentine Peninsula. Surrounded by spectacular views over the Bay of Sorrento and close to the Mount Vesuvius vulcano, this immersive experience introduces travellers to the world of traditional mozzarella and artisan cheese production.

Your visit begins inside the rooms where antique tools, historical documents and original 19th-century equipment tell the storey of local cheese-making traditions passed down through five generations of master cheese-makers. Your guide will explain how dairy culture became an essential part of life in this region and how traditional methods are still preserved today.

You will then explore the underground ageing cellars, where cheeses mature naturally to develop their unique textures and aromas. Learn about the importance of cave ageing and discover how local climate and craftsmanship influence the final flavour of each product.

The experience continues with a mozzarella and stretched-curd cheese demonstration by cheesemakers. Watch skilled artisans transform fresh curd into traditional cheeses using techniques that have remained unchanged for generations. This hands-on presentation offers a fascinating insight into one of Italy’s most iconic culinary traditions.

After the demonstration, enjoy seven artisan cheeses produced on-site using raw milk and locally sourced ingredients. The selection may include fresh mozzarella, aged specialities like Provola, smoked cheeses and traditional regional products like tarallucci napoletani (round breadsticks) paired with a glass of local wine and water allowing you to fully appreciate the flavours of the region in an authentic rural setting.

Perfect for food lovers and cultural travellers, this experience combines history, craftsmanship, and unforgettable scenery in the heart of the Sorrento Coast.
