A comfortable tourist bus will pick you up in Sorrento and take you southwards to the archeological site of Paestum, where you will visit the ancient Greek colony founded in the 7th century BC. Explore the archeological area with a guide, marvel at three Doric temples that are said to be the best preserved in the world, and visit Paestum's museum which displays many fascinating artifacts, such as sculptures and tomb paintings discovered during the excavations.

Afterward, you will be taken to a local farm where the famous buffalo mozzarella cheese is made entirely by hand and exclusively with buffalo milk. Learn more about Campania's dairy tradition on a guided tour of the stables where the most avant-garde techniques of milking are used to safeguard animal welfare, hygiene and milk quality. At the end of the tour, you will have the opportunity to taste this exquisite product!
