The incredibly picturesque coastal town of Sorrento sits in its own 'mini bay' within the vast Bay of Naples. The main town is perched on a natural terrace that stretches along the top of dramatic cliffs overlooking the water. The narrow, cobbled streets feature a charming combination of Renaissance palace buildings and Romanesque churches. Lemon orchards cover the hillsides and farmland around Sorrento - the town is famous for its citrus products, such as Limoncello - a digestive made with lemon rind.
The sights of Sorrento
Sorrento itself is a charming relaxed town with a
colourful harbour, usually filled with fishing boats bobbing in the
breeze. The town's central square is an ideal spot to relax with a
drink and indulge in a favourite Italian pastime - people-watching.
On a clear day, the views from Sorrento include the city of Naples,
renowned Mount Vesuvius and the charming island of Ischia.
The Amalfi Coast and its islands make up one of the most visually stunning regions in the whole of Europe. Starting in the ancient city of Rome, and then based in Sorrento, we visit magnificent Capri and the alluring lost city of Pompeii

When Kenneth Branagh’s action-man Hercule Poirot first bounds onto the screen, we find ourselves in Jerusalem 1933.
