Class was very informative, 4th generation limoncello maker… would definitely recommend this… also can ship product home
Our limoncello-making experience at Antichi Sapori d’Amalfi was, without question, the highlight of our entire Italy trip. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this is a true family-owned business built on passion, tradition, and genuine hospitality. Vittario and his mom made us feel like we were guests in their home rather than customers. Their warmth, kindness, and enthusiasm were contagious. What made this experience so special wasn’t just learning how authentic limoncello is made—it was the incredible storytelling. Vittario shared the history, traditions, and family heritage behind limoncello with so much passion that every step felt meaningful. He also did an amazing job including everyone in the group, making it interactive, fun, and engaging regardless of age or experience. You can tell this isn’t just a demonstration—it’s a family proudly sharing a piece of their culture with visitors from around the world. If you’re anywhere near the Amalfi Coast, don’t miss this experience. It’s authentic, educational, delicious, and filled with heart. We’ll remember the people just as much as the limoncello itself. Thank you, Vittario and your mom, for creating memories our family will cherish for years to come!
What a phenomenal experience! Victor is a third generation owner and told us all about the history of their llimoncello making shop. The presentation and hands-on experience occurred right in their kitchen inside their family-run business and the only Limoncello laboratory still active in the historic Almalfi coast. It was so informative and I just love the passion that Victor and his family have for the art of making pure limoncello (without preservatives)and artificial flavord!! We really enjoyed this experience and highly recommend!
This was such an amazing experience! Out of every activity we’ve done on vacation in Italy, this was my favorite. Vittorio and his entire family made the experience wonderful! We learned so much and had a great time! I highly recommend this!!!
We had an awesome time learning about how to make authentic Amalfi limoncello. Our host was fun, engaging and did a heart job of giving a thorough overview of how they make this authentic liqueur. You also get to try an large range of their homemade liqueurs from limoncello, meloncello, limoncello crème, lemon and ginger liqueur etc the experience is roughly 1 hour long which is perfect..
An absolute must do event; what an experience; everything we thought we knew about making Limoncello was gently corrected
It was wonderful to learn about the history and methods to making fantastic lemoncello! The samples were delicious!
Our host Vittorio was incredible! It was so fun to learn about the history of limoncello making, tasting his amazing creations and try our hand at making some. The shop is family run and Vittorio's passion for the craft and history of limoncello are what make this experience truly special. I would recommend this experience to anyone looking to experience the true essence of Amalfi! Grazie mille Vittorio
The proprietor, was passionate about his craft and the class went very fast (too fast) as we were enjoying it so much. We learned a lot and now I find myself checking bottles of limoncello where ever i go now. The class was fun, informative and he even shared his wife’s amazing lemon cake recipe as well as his grandfather’s original limoncello recipe. This turned out to be just a wonderful experience.
What an experience, so fun, so personal, the knowledge & love in this family for Limoncello is the best bar none. What makes this tour stand out over any other tour we've done is, you get to put the apron on (lemon themed apron of course) roll your sleeves up and get peeling & then add those peels to a new batch. P.S the homemade lemon cake is OOTW!!! I genuinely can't recommend this tour enough!!! Perfetto 🫶🏻
10/10! If I could give this experience more stars I would. Host and his family were just happy and excited to open their doors and teach us all about limoncello and the history of what it means to Amalfi. The last of the family stores and authentic limoncello places left in the area. Fun and educational!
Short and very enjoyable visit with lots of samples of their products.
Very informative and a great way to support a family business that’s been doing this the right way for generations. Totally worth it!
What an Awesome experience 3rd generation of limoncello maker. He explained that there or only 3 ingredients in the real thing. It's a hand on experience you get to help make a batch. He also makes other kinds tangerine, strawberry. He passion for his cra ft is amazing. Do yourself a favor and book this experience.
Clara was a great host. After the limoncello tasting we were treated to her other creations. Loved it so much we left with some authentic, "home-made" limoncello from her store. Lovely way to spend an hour in Amalfi.
We were on a tour to theamalfi coast and had the good fortune to visit this shop we learned how to make limoncello (with real amalfi lemons!) and tasted several products. The staff is wonderful and the shop lovely. We all carried back their products
Vittorio and Clara are among a dwindling generation of authentic, wholesome producers of limoncello in the area. They invited us in and we learned a lot about identifying & making good limoncello! Vittorio also generously allowed us to try some of the other liquors they make in-house. Overall, I couldn't imagine a better tour to book in the area as they are at the heart of what makes it special.
We loved Claire ! The tour is a great experience. I’d love to do it again I recommend this place 100%. They’re the official and most family style limoncello place you can find on Almafi. Book this tour it’s a must. You walk in and it feels like family !
An authentic experience making, tasting and learning about the real limoncello. Make this a first stop so you know what the real deal is snd enjoy only the best. This family operated company has nearly 50 years experience and still make it the same way by hand today. Don’t miss this. Will not disappoint!
A great experience! Owner was enthusiastic and passionate about his family business. Thorough explanation of the process of making authentic limoncello and delicious tastings. Information about the history and the process. Highly recommend, best experience in Amalfi town!
We had a wonderful experience learning the traditional, culture and secrets of making perfect limoncello. Vittorio was an amazing teacher and his passion really shone through - 100% recommend!
This short class is set in a shop in the heart of Amalfi Square. The hosts were delightful and the Limoncello is delicious.
Great learning experience on the making of Limoncello! The owner/tour guide was an excellent speaker and very enthusiastic about there products! We thoroughly enjoyed sampling all the different flavors and highly recommend this short but very informative tour!
Amazing trip whilst in amalfi. Learnt so much and great tasters. So much fun and knowledge what we will take home.
This limoncello experience is a must do when in Amalfi! Vittorio and his wife Clara welcome you with open arms to their third generation, family run business. They show you the most authentic way to produce limoncello, you get to actively participate in the process, and of course sample many of their amazing products. Huge bonus that they can ship purchases directly to your home. Can’t recommend this experience enough, it was a highlight of our trip!
If you want learn about how Limoncello is really produced and to learn the process, look no further! Excellent experience and great hosts. This is the real Limoncello!
This was the best experience in Italy so far!!! Owner and his wife were fantastic hosts. He walks you through the history of his family and the limoncello making process. He even shares the family secret recipe. They are so passionate about their business and legacy. It was a quick 1.5 hours but you get to sample limoncello along with other flavors he is experimenting with. 10 out of 10 and I left feeling like family!!!
My daughter and I took the "Learn how to make Amalfi Limoncello" from Vittorio and it was fabulous. We enjoyed learning about their family starting and continuing this business for 43 years. It is definitely a labor of love for this family. We loved learning about the other liqueurs the make as well (including the crema di limone, melon, pistachio, fennel, tangerine, etc.). We loved it so much that we bought so much product we had to ship it home! Would definitely recommend this 10/10.
My husband and I absolutely loved this experience! The host was incredibly passionate, sharing their rich culture and fascinating history in a way that made us feel truly connected. We also had the wonderful opportunity to meet and interact with their family, which made the experience even more special. Although we couldn't make it to our original morning class, the host was extremely accommodating and graciously allowed us to reschedule for later in the day. The warmth and hospitality of the family left a lasting impression. We also thoroughly enjoyed the limoncello—it's delicious! We're excited to try making it ourselves at home. Highly recommend this authentic and heartfelt experience for anyone looking to immerse themselves in culture and tradition.
Vittorio and his wife (owners) walked us through the history of his making Limoncello from his grandfather. While the shop/factory looks more like a lab or kitchen in his store front right in the Amalfi Town square...the hour-hour and a half was intimate, educational and passionate. We did some steps of the process, did some tasting and received great advice, recipe links and a diploma! Well worth it. But it's not like you are visiting a "factory"... but it's better!
Coming from America to the Amalfi coast, I knew a little about Limoncello. Victor gave us an entire different view of this, a greater appreciation. While there, he made us feel like old friends. His Limoncello was the best. If you have a chance to take his class, please go!
We bought several bottles of lemoncello and had them shipped to the states. We have also called them since getting home and have ordered more!
I have tried an embarrassing number of limoncelli in Amalfi and from the big industrial producers ( many of which look and smell like Transmission fluid). These people here are terribly old fashioned…luckily! You see production methods in the shop. We have not been to the shop in a decade ( we are not souvenir shoppers ), but we order it w free shipping anytime we are in Italy. Superb quality.
This small, family owned Limoncello shop was amazing. You can see the process and sample their liquors and candies. The husband, wife and son are friendly and helpful. We loved the entire experience. Their Limoncello and Meloncello are excellent. We haven't tried the coffee one yet. They are also able to ship your orders which we did. Everything (including glassware) was well-packed and arrived in tact. Will continue to order from this lovely family.
We absolutely LOVED it!! A third generation - old school family business. Victorio and his wife were wonderful hosts. By the end of it, we felt like we were friends.
It's been a couple of weeks since that experience but what a wonderful experience this was! From the moment I received a personal message from Vittorio the day before, I knew that we were in for a great time. We had such a fun learning experience with him about limoncello and how this place has been run by his family before him. We also had the pleasure of meeting his wife, who was absolutely delightful! She made us the most wonderful lemon cake - I still dream about it! The limoncello they produce on site and the passion that they have shines thru the entire experience. We obviously got to sample quite a few of their delicious products and it's such high quality! My husband and I truly enjoyed ourselves and left their little shop armed with a lot more knowledge about the production of limoncello as well as a smile on our faces from meeting such great, passionate people. We also got adorable certificates and their private limoncello recipe. What a thoughtful touch to top off this experience! Thank you so much Vittorio!
This class was amazing! You get immersed into this small limoncello production. Wash your hands because you’re going to assist the owner making a batch of limoncello he will eventually sell! On top of that cool experience you get to taste several flavors and learn how to make limoncello on your own. We can’t wait to try it!
My husband and I had a little history with limoncello but learned so much more from this experience! It is great to learn the authentic ways of making limoncello and the different types they make as well which are all DELICIOUS! We arrived early and they were ready to get us and start our experience which I definitely recommend to everyone
Great experience to understand the full process of limoncello and other liquors. Vitoria takes time to explain and go through all the steps in their production site. You can also taste different versions and chose the one you prefer.
Excellent experience! We take the Tour to learn about how to make limoncello!! Besides the interesting experience, very good product!
