Maiori: Path of Lemons Immersive Walking Tour with Tasting – Campania, Italy

EXPERIENCE:

Explore the Path of Lemons, a simple but fascinating walk that connects Maiori to Minori, on a guided tour. Discover the ancient road that was once the destination of the passages of farmers and mules, for the transport of Amalfi Coast’s yellow gold. Taste the sfusato lemon native to these areas.

Start the tour starts after a brief introduction at Corso Reginna, Maiori. Pass by the Collegiate Church of Santa Maria a Mare, a church built in 1505. Take the stairs to Torre, a small village in the municipality of Minori housing the ancient Church of San Michele Arcangelo.

Gaze at Ravello and, further in the distance, Amalfi and Atrani, at the panoramic point of Belvedere Mortella. Then, head to the farm of Giovanni Ruocco, a well-known local farmer, who has been cultivating and taking care of his lemon groves for generations with his family.

Take a stroll through gardens of fragrant lemons, with a characteristic tapered shape, used for culinary preparations such as the delicious Amalfi lemon salad, citrus jams, and lemonade that you will later taste under the shade of the trees.

Continue along the path, accompanied by a fantastic panorama until you reach the square of Minori, passing next to the church of Santa Trofimena, concluding the tour in the middle of the main plaza of Minori village.
