Boat trip to Capri - Beautiful excursion with a very comfortable boat and fantastic crew. We had plenty of time to swim, see the natural beauty of the island and also three free hours to visit the towns on the island. During navigation, the crew provided us with information about the places visited and pampered us with very welcome drinks and snacks. Thanks to Commander Federico and Antonio for the wonderful day you gave us.

Perfect Capri Boat Tour - We took the Capri and Blue Grotto tour with Francesca and Nello and it was incredible! By far our favorite boat tour, and honestly best day on our entire 2 week trip to Italy! Nello was an exceptional Capri, pulling the boat into beautiful grottos and transporting us around safely. Francesca was the best tour guide, giving up tips for how to see the best sights during our time on Capri. She directed us to a private bus to take us to both Capri and Anacapri which made getting around the island a breeze. We had plenty of time to take the chair lift to the top! After exploring the island by land we went around the entire island by boat swimming and soaking up the beautiful views. I can’t recommend this tour enough, if you can ask to be on their boat! I’ll be dreaming of returning in the future and doing this tour again.

Perfect, unforgettable experience - We were picked up from the Towers Hotel (jetty) and were looked after really well until we returned. Roby and Raffy were great entertainers and always good for a little surprise/refreshment. If we had stayed a week longer we would have done another tour with them!

Amazing view and tour!!! - We had a great time! Our captain was Francisco and his 1st mate was "Ross". They made the trip pleasurable, very informative about the whole island. Took so many amazing photos. Blue grotto was to crowded, so we went to the green grotto. AMAZING!! Ross got in the water with us and took us to swim into a cave. Prettiest water I have every seen. Would definitely recommend this boat tour especially with Francisco and Ross!!

Fantastic day out! - Really enjoyed our day trip. The boat is really high quality and very clean. It’s a fast boat so old on to your hats! The captain and skipper were very welcoming and friendly. They encouraged me to stand at the wheel for a photo. They were generous with drinks, and literally through a beer can out to me in the ocean. The trip included a fruit salad (individual portions) and a sandwich.
We chose as a collective not to wait 1hr plus to see the blue grotto. It was a busy day and we chose instead to have more time to swim elsewhere.
The taxi/bus pick up and drop off was very well organised and efficient.
Things to improve;
• It doesn’t say on the description that a sandwich lunch is included - it should say this as we packed our own sandwiches.
• the sandwiches were handed out a little late in the day for me, right at the end of the tour. I think after the swim would have been better.

Great Trip! - Great trip! Seeing the Blue Grotto and boating around Capri was amazing. The crew was fantastic and we enjoyed the chance to swim for 30 minutes. Highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants the chance to see the Blue Grotto and enjoys being on the water.

Rocky start but much better finish - This could have been 5 stars but pick up from meeting point was late and disorganized. Once we were on the boat all went well and was fun.

Just book it - Although my friend and I were unable to visit Grotta Azzurra, due to the high waves, our visit to Capri and boat tour was amazing. Luca S. & Antonio G. made our afternoon such a memorable one! Not only were they very knowledgeable about the landmarks we visited, but they made the trip SO much fun. They were friendly and made us feel very safe. I’ve already recommended this tour to my friends who are visiting the Sorrento area this upcoming spring. Grazie mille, Antonio G. & Luca S., we made memories that will last a lifetime.
I give 4.5/5 overall since we were unable to see the Grotta Azzurra.
