A sunlit terrace over the Gulf of Naples opens the day: citrus trees lean toward the sea and the scent of lemon oils rides the breeze as you sip a welcome drink. The farmhouse’s wood-fired oven hisses in the near distance while a pizzaiolo demonstrates the quick, confident motions that turn dough into a blistered Neapolitan crust.

A sunlit terrace over the Gulf of Naples opens the day: citrus trees lean toward the sea and the scent of lemon oils rides the breeze as you sip a welcome drink. The farmhouse’s wood-fired oven hisses in the near distance while a pizzaiolo demonstrates the quick, confident motions that turn dough into a blistered Neapolitan crust.
Sorrento sits on limestone cliffs sculpted by the Tyrrhenian Sea; its microclimate made the area ideal for the large, aromatic Sorrento lemons that shaped local cuisine and the famed limoncello liqueur. Pizza’s roots in nearby Naples mean the techniques you learn are regional traditions—short ferment, high-heat baking, simple high-quality toppings.
The class balances hands-on instruction—kneading, shaping, topping—with tasting of cold cuts, fresh mozzarella, and farm produce. You’ll bake your pie in a wood-fired oven and finish with a homemade dessert and a glass of limoncello.
Practical notes: the experience is family-friendly and physically easy but involves standing, working at a bench, and brief exposure to oven heat. Wear closed shoes and dress for sun on the terrace; plan transport if you prefer not to use the offered pickup. Expect about three hours from start to finish and opportunities to ask about local farming practices and recipes.
This is part culinary workshop, part farm visit: it teaches technique, offers sensory context for Sorrento’s food culture, and leaves you with practical skills to recreate Neapolitan-style pizza at home.

Sorrento’s lemon cultivation expanded in the 18th–19th centuries, shaping local cuisine and the limoncello tradition; Neapolitan pizza developed in nearby Naples as a simple, high-heat flatbread favored by working communities.
Many local farms emphasize small-scale, sustainable cultivation of citrus and vegetables; visitors can reduce impact by respecting paths, avoiding single-use plastics, and sampling local products rather than imported goods.
