Perched on a clifftop and offering dramatic, plunging views of the aquamarine Bay of Naples, Sorrento is a little slice of heaven in Italy’s stunning south.
The weather is balmy all year round, but in summer, the elevated location means it’s cooler than much of the surrounding area, making Sorrento holidays an ideal year-round choice for the discerning traveller.
At Newmarket Holidays we know the town has plenty of amazing things to do beyond staring in awe at its wonderful natural surroundings. Piazza Tasso is a colourful, bustling centre where local artisans and high-end bars coexist. Alongside all this there are restaurants that produce food so delicious you’ll be desperate to devour everything you see. Sorrento tours allow you to meander through this mishmash of unique amenities.
During the day you can cruise down Corso Italia, window shopping at numerous designer stores. For a more authentic experience there are dozens of narrow passageways around the main streets, each jam-packed with local shops, restaurants, and bars. The town is also home to an abundance of green space, for when you want to escape the busy centre, and with a Sorrento escorted tour you’ll be able to explore it all.

From charming old towns to age-old recipes, Sorrento is full of ancient secrets waiting to be discovered.
Under the baking south Italian sun there’s no better treat than gelato, and Gelateria David is the king of ice-cool spots in a town full to the brim with excellent sweet concoctions.
There are over thirty flavours to pick from in this Sorrento institution, but regardless of which you pick you’ll be sure to want more.
Although it’s somewhat controversial, many believe this corner of Italy is the spiritual home of pizza. Neapolitan pizza, perfected in the nearby bustling city, is a must-eat for anybody visiting Sorrento.
When the food is pretty much perfect everywhere you go, as it is in Sorrento, the rest of the experience has to be top-notch to elevate an eatery. At ‘O Parucchiano you get to eat delicious food in the shadow of gorgeous lemon trees, making the al fresco experience even more idyllic.
Be tempted by relaxing, fascinating, and adventurous holidays all over the world.
