It's hard not to fall in love with Sorrento, an idyllic town celebrated by poets, artists and musicians for centuries. You'll be struck by the beauty of its winding, cobblestoned streets giving way to elegant piazzas where pretty little pavement cafes invite you to sit awhile, sip a coffee, admire the spectacular views sweeping across the Bay of Naples, and enjoy a taste of la dolce vita, Sorrento style.
In the evenings, life tends to centre round the main square, Piazza Tasso, where good value, high quality restaurants abound and there are lovely pavement cafes from where you can watch the town come alive.
To get an instant feel for Sorrento whilst on holiday and soak up the kind of local knowledge, do not miss the welcome meeting which takes place as you stroll through the town centre. Steeped in history, you will find the town is small enough to walk around easily yet it is within easy reach of many must-see landmarks, not least the mighty volcano Mount Vesuvius and the towns it destroyed namely Pompeii and Herculaneum.
