Incredible experience. Nico is the best! - Nico was amazing. He made us feel so welcome, took the time to explain the different land marks and recommended other things to do on the island. We felt really relaxed and his boat is extremely comfortable and modern. Would 100% recommend!

Well worth it! - Our tour guide, Nico, was fantastic! We saw everything around the island. Nico gave explanations of what we were seeing that were brief but informative and not canned. If we asked questions, he gave more details. As the description of this trip mentions, the Blue Grotto is part of the tour, but you have to pay for it separately and the line can be long. Nico got us in quickly, which was half a miracle given how many people were lined up on shore and waiting in boats. You have two opportunities to swim in the beautiful Mediterranean. We saw all the grottos, the lighthouse, the sculptures and the beauty took your breath away! The only drawback is that the trip is 3 and a half to 4 hours and the boat does not have a bathroom.

Highlight & must do - Nico is a great host & took us around the island of Capri- we got to go swimming, snorkelling & see the grotto’s. It was the highlight of our entire trip down to the Amalfi coast.
It was easy to communicate with Nico about pick up time and where to meet at the port.

Top experience - Oh my god, a must see! And Capri Precious was v professional. Nice boat, with towels refreshments ( when you book, they’ll ask you what you want) our captain Alejandro was so nice and professional and funny. I recommend it being the first thing you do when arriving at Capri, it was great to hear Alejandros recommendation and local color. Plenty of opportunity to swim, see Blue Grotto ( Alex got us there early enough to avoid the big crowds) note: Blue Grotto is a separate charge (€20/pp) and they “recommend “ €2/pp tip to the rowboat captain and all must be paid in cash. Beautiful day on the water. Perfect for all travelers. ( even has noodles if you feel uncomfortable swimming in Mediterranean, but it was pretty calm)

Best boat tour ever! - My family had the absolute best time on our private half-day boat tour with Nico. It was very relaxing and a perfect day on the water. Nico was extremely knowledgeable and he made a point to explain the meaning behind all the historical landmarks. While we couldn't go in the blue grotto due to the rough waters, we still had a great time and got to see the entire island. The day of the tour we had to push our time back an hour and Nico accommodated us. He also brought beverages on the boat for the whole group. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Capri and to all ages. I hope one day we will be back. Thank you Nico!
