- Blue Grotto - By convertible car or a shuttle bus (depends on your group number) reach The Blue Grotto, as your first stop (weather permitting, otherwise a sharing boat ride tour around the island will be included). The cave will leave you speechless. Lying on board a small boat you will enter inside the entrance of the cave is about one meter high. Its blue water reflects on the rock creating a splendid effect.
- Anacapri - Anacapri is the second stop of this day tour, a more peaceful place than Capri. Here you will also stop for lunch.
- Monte Solaro - From Mount Solaro you can enjoy the most beautiful view of Capri. In Ancapri, get on the chair lift and admire the landscape below with the Gulf of Naples and the Vesuvius in front.
- Piazza Umberto I - Piazza Umberto I is better known as the “Piazzetta”. Sitting at a bar table you can enjoy an aperitif or a good Neapolitan espresso and maybe find yourself sitting next to a celebrity.
- Giardini di Augusto - The Gardens of Augustus are a must to admire the symbol of the island of Capri, the rocks Faragioni. Follow your guide in a walking tour of the Gardens.
- Marina Grande - Here you will catch your ferry back to Naples or Sorrento. Ferry takes 50/60 minutes. (if you already stay in Capri, your tour ends at your hotel)

Embark on an exciting journey to the beautiful island of Capri via a fast ferry service, where a guide will greet you upon arrival. Traverse the renowned Mamma Mia cliffside road and capture unforgettable images. If the weather allows, you will be transferred into the mesmerizing Blue Grotto, also known as Grotta Azzurra, via a small boat to admire the radiant blue waters. The vast cave can only be accessed by a small boat due to its small entrance. Grab the chance to ride the chairlift from Anacapri to Monte Solaro’s peak for stunning island-wide panoramas. With a bit of luck, you might catch a glimpse of Mt. Vesuvius and Ischia Procida islands far off in the distance.
Subsequently, explore the gorgeous Villa San Michele along with its verdant gardens. While meandering, you’ll discover ancient artefacts tucked amidst the indigenous plant life. Follow this up with a visit to La Piazzetta, a charming square surrounded by boutiques and cafes.
Lastly, tour the magnificent Augustus Gardens, where you can relish breath-taking views. Soak in the sight of Faraglioni, Capri’s famed rock formations, before heading back home.
- Child rate applies only when sharing with 2 paying adults
- If the blue grotto is closed you can do the sharing boat ride all around the island

Unforgettable Day in Capri – Thank You Vinchenzo! - We had the most amazing private tour of Capri and the Blue Grotto with Vinchenzo as our guide. From start to finish, he made the entire experience seamless, enriching, and truly unforgettable. Vinchenzo’s passion for the island, its history, and its hidden gems was evident in every stop we made. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also warm, funny, and attentive—making us feel like we were exploring Capri with a good friend.
Even when I unexpectedly got a little sea sick, Vinchenzo was kind, patient, and reassuring. Thanks to his calm demeanor and professionalism, I was able to recover quickly and fully enjoy the rest of the day. And I’m so glad I did—the beauty of the island, especially the magical Blue Grotto, was absolutely breathtaking.
Vinchenzo went above and beyond to make our experience special. If you’re considering a private tour of Capri, look no further. This was one of the highlights of our entire trip, and much of that is thanks to Vinchenzo.
Grazie mille, Vinchenzo – we’ll never forget this day!

Lucy + Capri = Gold - Can not recommend Lucy any higher than you MUST DO! She met us at our cruise dock in Naples, got us to the ferry terminal and talked us through the process of what would happen upon docking in Capri which involved running to the dock to get on a boat to head to the Blue Grotto so we could get in line without wasting time. We managed to only wait 40 minutes to get into the Blue Grotto which during peak summer months wasn't bad at all! Afterwards Lucy had a van waiting for us and took us to the chair lift which took us to the top of the island for amazing views. Then we went shopping to have custom sandals made. Then we had previously made a lunch reservation at da Gelsomina and Lucy was excited to help us arrange transportation to the restaurant where we enjoyed the most incredible leisurely lunch with unbelievable island views and insanely delicious food. After lunch we went back to pick up our custom sandals, did some more shopping and then headed back to get our ferry to return to our cruise ship in Naples. Our teenagers had so much fun with Lucy! She was full of knowledge, had amazing energy and kept us on schedule. Just wish we had more time to spend in beautiful Capri!!!

One of our best days in Italy - many thanks to Paola! - Our guide Paola was AMAZING! It's like she's a local celebrity on Capri! Everyone knew her, she got us through long lines quickly, knew all the local history and took us to a restaurant wehre we had the best ravioli of our lives. There is no way we would have seen half of the sites we did, or been able to get around Capri and Anacapri, without her planning and expertise. And she is warm and gracious as well - we would highly recommend Paola and this tour for anyone who wants a full and meaningful day tour of Capri.

Isle of Capri Private Day Tour with Maria - We looked at a few tour options before booking but ultimately decided on a private tour, which included the Blue Grotto. Even though it was a pricier option, it was money well spent. Our Guide, Maria, was amazing, and she made the experience extra special. We were guided every step of the way but still had plenty of free time. The day had zero stress and was even more perfect than we could have imagined. My Husband said it was the highlight of our trip for him.
If you’re on the fence, and budget allows, just book it. You’ll be so glad you did!

Fantastic with teens! - Lucia was fantastic - she helped us get the most out of our day in Capri/Anacapri and was great with our teens/tweens. She helped us do a last minute itinerary change to tour the island by boat instead of visiting the gardens (was definitely a good choice for our hot, tired kids!). She really went above and beyond, too - after our tour was over, the metro stop by the port was closed so the taxi line was very, very long. Lucia helped us get tickets and ride the metro back towards our hotel, saving us hours of waiting!!! A wonderful experience - definitely ask for her!!!

Waste of money - This review is titled “Private”, but there is very little private about this experience. You will be on the same ferry with everyone else, same shared boat to Blue Grotto and only “private” with your guide on Capri in the cab. Our guide didn’t really tell us about history or culture, just seemed to chat about personal stories (not relevant to Capri). This was a waste of money. You could do it all by yourself for much less than half. You will also be demanded a tip at Blue Grotto that this inanely expensive experience doesn’t cover. Blue Grotto will be less than 2 minutes.
