Wonderful tour and tasting!

Rate: 5 out of 5 10/1/24
My family took the tour of the limoncello lemon groves at Il Convento in early October. We had a wonderful time! You get to see how the limoncello is made, walk through the beautiful groves and enjoy a tasting of limoncello products and other liqueurs and sweets they produce. The limoncello chocolates were absolutely delicious, as were the crème limoncello and classic limoncello. After the tour, we were allowed to stay in the upper grove and take photos and shop for the products we tasted to take home. I highly recommend this tour! We chose to take a taxi arranged by our hotel, and we had no problem getting there. There is a short walk with a bit of an incline to and from the grove, but my 60 year old mother was able to make it and the tour guide took breaks.

Our group of six had a wonderful experience at the lemon Farm and limoncello factory. We enjoyed learning about lemon growing process and how limoncello is made.

The luncheon was delicious, authentic and plentiful. We loved everything! Our guide, Irina, was a fantastic hostess. Highly recommend this tour!

We traveled by taxi from Sorento’s main square, approximately $50E.

Une belle visite d'une heure trente de ce domaine en compagnie d'Irina. Très bel accueil avec des explications précises sur la fabrication du limoncello. Jardins somptueux entre citronniers, orangers, oliviers ... Dégustation des produits de la maison.

Sehr zu empfehlen

Leider hatten wir sehr viel Oech mit dem Wetter und wir konnten nur eine verkürzte Tour machen, da Kies unter Wasser stand .
Doch Irina gab sich grösste Mühe und alles zu erklären, damit wir doch erahnen konnten, wie die Herstellung funktioniert. Die Produkte, die sie offeriert hat, waren sehr lecker.
Einen ganz besonderen Dank an Irina , dass sie uns bei diesem Wetter zum Hotel gefahren hat, da keine Busse und Taxis mehr fuhren . Wir würden die Tour auf jeden Fall nochmals machen.

Amazing experience

Rate: 5 out of 5 9/1/24
Our group of 12 people were had the most amazing experience! We met the family who were the nicest people and learned a lot about the limoncello making process from the tour. You can tell everyone was passionate and proud of their products. The olive oil and limoncello tasting were delicious and we went home with a lot of souvenirs that we purchased. We will be making Il Convento a regular part of our Almalfi coast visits.

The wine tour was one of the best we have been on. The transportation was comfortable, the guide was nice and very knowledgeable, and we got to experience many different wines from varying types of wineries throughout Tuscany along with meat and cheese pairings. Highly recommend.
