A leisurely and informative walk around Sorrento - We had an interesting walk around Sorrento with Gabriella. Since it was soon after breakfast we did not really take full advantage of the street food we were introduced to, perhaps a later start would be good for others. She was very knowledgeable and went the extra mile with us - literally! - so we could find the market, which turned out to be not worth the effort in the end.

LOVELY EVENING IN SORRENTO - We did the guided walking tour in the evening in Sorrento and were very happy with our evening. Our guide was Kelly (from Yorkshire) who was very helpful and informative showing us behind the scenes of pizza making, old mill and ravine, history of the town, good shopping points, factory where they make those lovely souvenir wooden boxes, along with samples of the food and drinks that Sorrento are famous for. Overall a lovely experience was had by all. Great sunset! Would recommend.

More of a history tour - Good value for money but more of a history tour than a food tour. You do get to try a few food items but majority of the tour is visiting churches and historic parts of the town.

Overall good overview of the town - Overall ok. The timing in the evening was a little late when ended. The food offered was just not adequate before diner time.

History lesson with very lite snacks sprinkled in - Our guide was great and very passionate but the tour's name is a little misleading (especially since we went on severak other food tour/experiences and they offered a lot of food). I know it says street food experience but it is truely should say with a small street food experience because it was very much more of just a tour.
You should add maybe as an option when you ask would you recommend.

Great intro to Sorrento - Enjoyable experience! Th guide was knowledgeable and this was an excellent introduction to Sorrento on our first day in town. I didn't think we would eat as much as we did so I ate breakfast beforehand and was absolutely stuffed by the time the tour was finished. So eat light (or not at all) beforehand :)

Poor tour ogre Sorrento - Very lackluster. Tour guide was not at all knowledgeable about Sorrento. Said the walls around the city were not there for a purpose but were “just old”. We later read on a sign that they were there to protect the city during invasion of the Turks. Talked very little. We as well as others on tour thought it was a waste of time and money. Very disappointed
