Things to do in Capri, Campania: The Best Wine Tours & Tastings

July 5, 2021 Madelene Haan

Capri is pure romance—dramatic views, the bluest ocean you’ve ever seen, even the scent of lemon blossoms in the air. The luminescent Blue Grotto, striking Faraglioni Rocks and the Palazzo al Mare are popular with travelers, but for a real treat, snorkel at Marina Piccola beach. It’s said to be the spot where Odysseus nearly succumbed to the Sirens’ song… a fitting legend for this alluring island.

My husband and I did a virtual cooking class with Chef Carmen and our friends who had previously gone to her actual class in Italy. From start to finish, Chef Carmen made the whole experience such a blast. It felt like she was right there with you, guiding you the whole way through. We made Fettuccine Bolognese and Eggplant Parmigiana and it was amazing! It was 9pm her time when our class took place and we never felt rushed with her. She kept telling us to take our time(even though we felt bad as it got later!). Chef Carmen was so personable and hilarious that you felt comfortable with her right away. We can’t wait for the pandemic to be over as the first place we will travel to is to Sorrento just to take her class in person. Highly suggest taking Chef Carmen’s class!

We had a very enjoyable and informative all-day tour of Rome and Vatican City. Our guide, Nicola, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He arranged the schedule perfectly and gave us keen insights on each point of interest that we visited. Our driver, Claudio, expertly navigated the routes and was very friendly as well. We engaged Claudio to give us another half-day tour of Castel Gandolfo, which was superb. I strongly recommend Limousine Service in Italy for your travel needs.
