Lemon Tour

This well-known Goethe’s verse tells us about the German poet’s desire to share with his dear ones that marvellous and enchanting experience he had had in a lemon garden.

Lemons are a symbol of the Amalfi Coast and with their bright yellow colour perfectly merge with the green of the mountains and the blue of the sea. The scent and the colour of our lemons will accompany you in a breath-taking tour through lemon-terracings, which are grown on cliffs overlooking the sea.

This guided tour will show you different steps of the traditional lemon farming like bending, tying and pruning trees as well as harvesting citrus fruits. You will also attend the spreading-out of the typical shade meshes that protect the lemon trees from high wind and heavy rains.

For this tour, Sopra il Limoneto has arranged the tasting of local products as well as of dishes especially made by our lady cook. In the last part of the tour, you will like to try your hand at the Sfusato d’Amalfi, attending culinary lessons focussing on transforming and cooking this delicious fruit.

A Lemon Tour is a unique experience, which will make your stay in Cetara an unforgettable one.
