Additional Information
Depicted by painters, and immortalized in verse by poets, Capri, the island that Emperor Tiberius had a profound appreciation for, shines as the jewel of the Gulf of Naples.
Embarking from Sorrento, we will set off on an awe-inspiring voyage to this island of romance, traversing the beautiful blue waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Our picturesque journey alongside the Sorrento peninsula reveals the ancient fisherman village of Marina Grande and a historic Roman villa, with origins tracing back to the 1st century BC.
Upon arrival at Capri, we’ll sail near the towering Faraglioni rocks, catch sight of Curzio Malaparte’s mansion, explore the enchanting grottoes of Capri, each offering distinct hues: - Blue Grotto - White Grotto - Green Grotto and finally reach the beacon of Punta Carena lighthouse, which stands as one of the oldest in Italy.
We’ll spend 3 hours in Capri giving you the opportunity to uncover the island’s hidden gems. Two swim breaks are also planned.
We’ll provide seasonal fruit and drinks.
We aim to head back to Sorrento around 4:00 pm.

Relaxing, informative, exactly as advertised - We had an absolutely amazing boat tour from Sorrento to Capri with MBS! Our crew for the day were the two Roberto's. Or as we called them, "Roberto Squared", or "Captain Roberto" and "Roberto with the good hair"
The experience was both relaxing and exciting, filled with lots of laughs and intriguing tales about Capri and its legends. The camaraderie on the boat was fantastic, and I can attribute that to the great vibes both Robertos brought on board.
Highly recommend this day trip to anyone considering it. You won't be disappointed!

Would do again! - Great experience! Captain was great and shared lots of helpful information and we got wonderful experiences like swimming, champagne, information about the grottos, etc. We did not make it into the blue grotto because of long lines but we were ok with that. Lovely experience!

Capri Island Tour in a beautiful boat! - We had a wonderful time!! Our captain was very nice! Boat is beautiful! The amount of people was just right! His first mate was such a great guy, he engaged with the guest and was quite funny! After we toured Capri in our own he had cut up a bunch of fresh fruit which was very nice! There was plenty of beer and water advisable. We saw some amazing attractions and really enjoyed our day very much!! Would definitely book with this company again!

Great experience - A wonderful and scenic boat ride from Sorrento to Capri which includes swimming, a fruit tray with drinks, and time to eat on and wonder Capri – one of my favorite days spent in Sorrento!
To note:
- There is a port fee required before you leave Sorrento (mentioned in the listing)
- The Blue Grotto costs extra (mentioned in the listing)
- The Blue Grotto is not always open; the entrance is incredibly narrow so weather and water conditions affect your ability to enter (mentioned in listing)
- If you want to enter the Blue Grotto, you must speak up on the boat! If no one is interested when polled, the boat will move on. Also, if the wait time is 2+ hours, the boat might move on due to time constraints
- Water is available any time, but they bring out the fruit tray and drinks after your time on Capri

Exactly as advertised - We love being on the water so we knew this was the perfect tour for us. The tour was as advertised. Nothing spectacular but the boat ride and the 3 hours we spent in Capri were fine. Capri was unorganized chaos. People everywhere. Boats coming in left and right. Bus line, taxi line, funicular line were all crazy!! We went to the Capri Rooftop bar as recommended and it was lovely! Views were amazing! Would have loved longer swim times as we weren’t able to do the blue Gratto due to the ridiculous wait time. All in all a good tour. Fabrizia was amazing! Love her brutal honesty!!!

Not worth it, only a simple boat trip to capri - Felt like an expensive trip to capri. The description says travel to hidden coves and beaches. I assumed we would at least do that since the blue grotto is not guaranteed. We got dropped off first thing on capri, we spent 3 hours in the city. We then went to the green grotto and a white cave. Then we stopped at some random spot so snorkel which we could barely see anything. No hidden beaches and no coves. The fruit was sad looking and the captain did not want to serve Prosecco until we stoped to snorkel. I thought he would have at least had someone else with him to help him out with passing out waters and drinks. The last boat tour I took was so much better, we actually went to hidden beaches and caves where we got to actually snorkel and see cave formations. This was my honeymoon and we were very disappointed.

Not what we expected or paid for! - My family and I were not happy with our tour. It wasn’t really a tour— more of an expensive boat ride to Capri. The tour operator couldn’t be heard- no beverages were offered until the end of the day- no snorkel gear was offered- lt was just an expensive boat ride to Capri. I was surprised at the audacity of the two person crew who stood as we disembarked looking for tips.
