Great experience
Published on Oct, 2024
Silvana was a terrific guide. She was knowledgeable about the history and culture of Sorrento. I learned a lot from her. She included marina grande in the tour which was great because I had not been there. I did have to cut my tour short because of illness but I really enjoyed it. Tour aside, Silvana is an incredibly kind and caring person. I will always remember what she did for me.
My guide, Silvana, provided exceptional historical and cultural details as she tailored the two hours of the tour to my specific interests. The twilight timing of the tour required an intimate knowledge of some difficult -to-access locations and alternative access options. She never faltered as she made adjustments on the fly. Well done!
Exceptional Tour Guide with Unmatched Knowledge and Passion
Published on Jun, 2024
Silvana was an outstanding tour guide. The meeting point was ideal, and her extensive knowledge and passion for Sorrento shone through. We gained fascinating insights into the history and mythology of the area. Her enthusiasm for the art and history of Sorrento was contagious, and we learned a great deal from her. I highly recommend her.
Don’t miss this tour!

A tour to orientate the layout, history, literary, and artistic story of Sorrento

Really enjoyed this tour of Sorrento. To enjoy this best, you should be interested in the layout, historic, litrary, and artistic story.
As a personal tour, it is likely to be different each time. Silvana is friendly and happy to discuss.
We had several entrances that came about because Silvana knew people around town, and this made for unique experiences.
