Perfect day! A must do

Jess_W, Sept 2023

Perfect day and the staff were awesome Got to spend a few hours in Capri and visit all the grottos. We paid to get into the blue grotto and it was beautiful

Rachael_G, Aug 2023

Highlight of my trip! The service was amazing the crew made sure we were having a blast. They was super knowledgeable as well couldn’t recommend higher!

Long day in the sun!

Lea_B, July 2023

We had a great time on our boat! It was a little confusing getting on the correct boat/with the right group at first but we figured it out eventually. We didn’t get to see the blue grotto since the line was about an hour long, so that was a bummer. We also weren’t aware we’d be dropped off in Capri for 3 hours to do whatever we wanted. It was HOT and expensive, but we still had fun! Wish there was more wine on the boat since I’m not a beer drinker. Nonetheless, our guides were great and very informative! (Oh and bring your own towel/plenty of sunscreen)

Capri really makes the...

alexis_a, July 2023

Capri really makes the difference and is worth going by private boat to go around the island. Both our captain and his assistant were very helpful

Best captain-Antonino

Khan_P, June 2023

Excellent experience!! Our captain and first mate went out of their way to make sure our family enjoyed the excursion. He even made sure he wasn’t going too fast for our youngest daughter who took a minute to get use to the waves.

Just okay

Lori_D, June 2023

A pleasant day, but probably not worth the money, certainly not premium. The morning is chaotic. The office window is tucked next to a cafe and tons of bustling people and boat captains trying to get the tours checked in and started. They have many different captains arguing over who takes who. Our boat was nice, held 7-8 passengers, although we rode up on top in front in the sun while some older passengers took the seats and shade in the back. It was a beautiful scenic trip on the way out- maybe an hour? Since we were in front we were just relayed information a few times by the mate so really had no idea what we were looking at although pretty. There is no way you will see the Blue Grotto due to crowds by the time you get there if you go in warmer months. They didn't even offer it up as it would have taken hours so we just drove by. It was frustrating being so far away from the shore- other smaller boats were going in and out of the rocks and really getting up close while we looked on from afar. The Green Grotto water is gorgeous and the white grotto and arch is very pretty, but you don't swim there -just wait your turn to back into , them take some photos then move on. You will wait your turn at the Marina to be scuttled to shore via a rubber dinghy. Pretty smooth, but time consuming. Upon drop off we were handed a sandwich wrapped in foil and told about things to go do and when to be back for shuttling. They warned us not to go to Anacapri but we wanted to go up to Monte Solare. The line was so long that we couldn't and still make our rendevous so we ended up going back down to the beautiful beach where we landed. There wasn't much time for anything else by the time you get a cab or bus up the hill so I would recommend going to Capri center and wandering there and the beach. We were offered water or beer one time coming and going, no limencello. We stopped to swim on our way back home for a few minutes, no snorkeling offered. A storm was coming in so they said we had to get back. We were back almost an hour and a half early.

Great experience

Shelby_H, June 2023

The start of the tour was a little disorganized and we waited for people and the boat for an hour. But our tour guide on the boat was so lovely and made the trip very worth it. Capri from a boat is even more beautiful than the island itself.

Capri tour

Mariam_G, May 2023

Everyone was very friendly. We were running late due to a bus delay from our area and they waited for us. Something we will appreciate we were able to go on this experience and not miss out. It is a long day but it is a beautiful experience. Thank you to all staff especially Francesco and Gabriel who made this day memerable.

Response from Host, May 2023

We are so grateful for you kind words and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us! We are glad you enjoyed.

The best time!

Sue_D, Apr 2023

What an amazing experience! Our host, Luca, was lively, informative and a great entertainer. He made the day very lively and was able to answer a lot of our questions. The boat was clean, good bathroom and the service was top notch. We had champagne, beer, soda, etc. The sandwiches that came with package was delicious! We had 11 people total on our boat and it didn't feel too cramped. The stops were wonderful - would 100% recommend!

Amazing boat tour of Capri

Luca_C, Oct 2022

This really was an amazing tour and an amazing day that I am so glad I went on! It started off by exploring the peninsula with Sorrento and some ruins on the way to Capri, where our expert captain guided the boat into some grottos with expert precision so that we were able to admire the water and the cave formations. We also were able to go swimming twice, and there was limitless beer available on the boat. The water was perfect and even though it was October it was not very cold. We got free time to explore the island from the Marina Picolla, which was much more calm than Marina Grande, and only 4 euro to go from one side to the other via the bus and funicular. Overall a great day!

The most memorable tour

Rebecca_T, Sept 2022

We had such a great time on our boat tour to Capri. From great communication, the bus ride to the boat (air conditioned Mercedes crew van) and the entire tour itself. We did other boat tours and they were good but this one stood out for sure! Our guides Giovanni and Josè were absolutely incredible. Made us laugh, took pictures and we so informative during the entire tour. Communication was great. I received a WhatsApp message from sorrento tours the night before letting me know that the pick up time had changed due to sea conditions. Everything was smooth and went as outlined in the message the next day. Our driver that took us to the drop off location so was friendly and personable and played music that we all really enjoyed. We had the most memorable experience from the moment we left our hotel. Thank you to everyone who made this possible.

Not as promised

Steven_B, Sept 2022

Not as promised. The boat was noisy and smelled of diesel, and the ride did not give good views for many people due to boat design.

Disappointed

Diana_C, June 2022

Spent €40 extra to go back to Sorrento in Ferry as they did not wait for me, I advised the captain I was lost and waiting for the bus, I was going to take a taxi, and he said “dont worry, we won’t leave without you” and 3 min after I have offered to go in Taxi to the meeting point, he called saying they already left. I understand this is a group experience, however, the capitan didn’t need to say that he will wait for us, and that he will not leave without us. I will recommend you get another tour company if you’re gonna spend this amount of money and they dont even care about you.

Great day on the water, would recommend!

Brody_B, May 2022

My friend and I had an excellent time on this boat tour! Mary and Johnny took very good care of us and were super knowledgeable about Capri. They arranged for travel for us while on Capri and had everything available while on the boat. Shuttles to and from our hotel made it a particularly carefree day since all travel was arranged by them. They had towels for after the chilly swim, and provided a beer and fruit cups when we got back on the boat. I was hopeful for a mask and snorkel during the swim, but we didn’t have those available. Other than that the tour was excellent! Mary had a wonderful sense of humor and instantly made it seem like we had been long time friends. Would definitely go out with them again and recommend to all looking for a semi-private boat tour with great a company!

Amazing tour but started off rocky

Alanna_T, May 2022

This was one of the highlights of our trip. It is absolutely a must. Such mind blowing besuty and very nice people. The boat is also goregous and like brand new. Minus one starbecause this company sent us not only the wrong pick up time (half hour later than what they sent the rest of our group), they also sent us to the wrong dock. This caused a lot of unnecessary stress and almost caused us to miss the tour. Then they had the nerve to charge us a boat departure fee? Weird.

Fun tour!

Kendra_R, Mar 2022

The boat ride was a great scenic tour... a little rough on the way out but smooth sailing on the way back. Luigi had some interesting info during the ride and showed us all the places we were to see. He was pretty funny too and made the trip very enjoyable. And at first I thought, what is this sandwich? But it's the best sandwich i've ever had! Pretty sweet to be with a small group (10 of us) on the boat and get to bond a little with the other participants. Capri is way warmer than Sorrento where we started from... wish we brought our swimsuits! But still got to lay on the beach

Incredible Day around Capri

James_S, Nov 2021

it was an incredible day. Our guide brought us around the entire island of Capri seeing all the Grottos and ending with a beautiful sunset at the lovers hole. Our captain was friendly and made the trip a memorable experience.

Awesome day on the boat!

Dan_P, Sept 2021

Toni gave us an awesome tour of Capri - we had the whole boat to ourselves and lots of fun swimming throughout the day. We got everything that was advertised and would definitely do again
