    The tasting was good. The tour of olive grove and farm was just okay. The different olive oils were good but not great. They did have a lot of variety.

    Guide was very personable. Patient and did not feel rushed. Took photos of myself and daughter. No high pressure selling which probably buy more! Highly recommend!!
    Short but sweet…

    Good, but brief overview of the farm and the olive oil make process. Now I understand why it is so expensive! The tour ends with a tasting of 15 olive oils plus balsamic vinegar and reductions plus the opportunity to purchase. The olive oils were good - very distinctive and they had lots of flavored oils. Transportation was via taxi which they arranged. It was maybe a 10 minute drive from downtown Sorrento. I suspect you could do this on your own for cheaper but you would need to arrange the tour directly with the farm. You can do it via email a couple days in advance. If you have a interest in learning about olive oils, I recommend this tour.
    Delicious Day!

    Loved seeing the old farm house and how olives were farmed many years ago. A nice surprise was the wine tasting upstairs in their new beautiful restaurant. They let us do the wine tasting after the olive oil tasting. Afterwards, we put together a nice assortment of oil, wine, honey & pasta to ship home. Tony did a great job explaining the wine & he was very entertaining! The whole experience was organized, fun and tasty!
    Delicious olive oil, but definitely expect to buy stuff!

    Don't go into this experience unless you want to buy olive oil! The tour started with a very brief walking tour of their property and after they had a table set for an olive oil tasting. That's it, and its definitely just a sales pitch for their products, but their products are delicious! My sister and I both bough several different olive oils, a chocolate liquor, and honey from their bees!
    Sales pitch.
    Sharon_H, May 2023
    This was a brief tour of the old and new farm, followed by the tasting. Interesting, but overall it seemed like a long, memorized sales pitch for their products.
    Fantastic start to a day in Sorrento

    The tour was informative, and the garden looked straight out of a fairy tail — it was so gorgeous. The host was so kind and then explained the generous amounts of oil and vinegar we got to try. Then you end the day with shopping and even better, having a drink upstairs in the most adorable terrace with the most incredible view. Really just unreal. Highly recommend if you love olive oil, vinegar, and a nice view :)
    Response from Host, Apr 2023
    Glad that you fully enjoyed both our garden and our products. We see that you loved the incredible view of the Gulf of Naples from our terrace. we hope to see you again in our location in the near future ciao from Sorrento
    Great family owned EVOO farm.
    Kimberly_C, Mar 2023
    This is a truly great experience. A wonderful tour of a family owned olive oil maker. Beautiful farm, lovely tasting EVOO, great informative guide. We topped off our day with a lunch on the patio restaurant enjoying food from the farm. (Which isn’t included, but ask about it, you won’t be sorry). Highly recommend.
    Response from Host, Mar 2023
    Dear Kimberly, thanks for your nice comment. We are very happy that you fully enjoyed the complete experience in our farm, with our oils and the lunch on the patio restaurant.
    A wonderful morning spent

    Great information about the old and new methods of olive oil production. Also taking a quick tour of the farm was fun!
    Perfect thing for a rainy day!

    SO MUCH FUN! Everything tasted amazing! My friend and I went when it was raining, and honestly this was the perfect thing to do on a rainy day in italy. But even if its not raining, seriously go!
    Great experience and such friendly staff

    Linda_L, Sep 2021
    The olive oils were fantastic! A lot of history there. I would stage the old house to replicate life 200 years ago.
    Fun
