Our complimentary shuttle service will pick you up from your hotel, from where you’ll commence your journey around Capri. The first halt will be the natural waterfall at Marciano, providing a perfect photo opportunity and a chance for a rejuvenating swim.

The tour’s first leg concludes with a swimming break in Marina Piccola, offering views of the Faraglioni. There’s a four-hour stop on the island, during which you have free time to explore. Snacks and beverages will be served on board! The return to the hotel, via a complimentary shuttle, will take roughly 40 minutes and begins from the port.

Magical Experience - This was one of my favorite things that we did while in Italy. The stops we went to on the tour were just magical and not to be missed. Our captain and guide were so knowledgeable of everything and pointed out some sites we may have missed if they hadn't.
Capri was such a beautiful island, and the views are breathtaking. I already want to go back.

Great trip to Capri - The Trip out was a great opportunity to see the whole coastline and it’s fantastic views from another perspective. We took the small group tour which was also very nice because we could exchange with the people on board who were one more friendly than the other, a plus on this tour is tge hotel pick up which was really nice. You didn’t have to worry where to find the port or how to get back from the the port to your hotel. Once we toured all around the coast, they let us off in Capri for four hours, which was really nice too. Capri is a real gem!!! After that we took off and had some more views of the Faraglioni…
I would definitely recommend the tour. Especially we had two great guide & skipper!! Antonio and Roberto, were absolutely fantastic, very funny and telling us lots of historic aspects of the tour and many surprises … i won’t spoil all the surprises but I can tell you there were a few and they were amazing . Great tour!!!!

Fabulous boat trip - Fabulous boat trip. Very well organised. Picked up on time from hotel and very efficient process.
The boat was comfortable and the crew were both very friendly and helpful.
Taken around the coast of Capri then dropped off at a Marina away from Capri main town so bus or taxi required to get around.
We got the bus to Capri town then up to the ski lift. Great views and good fun with excellent photo opportunities on the way up and then at the top.
Only had time for a quick ice-cream in Capri town before taking the bus ride back to the Marina.
A tour around the grottos was good fun then the boat ride home with a nice beer.
Unfortunately not great weather but on a sunny day this trip would be brilliant and highly recommended

Fabulous Tour - very fair price! - A very fair price for a fantastic day out. I can't recommend it enough. The entire team were professional, well organised and so sincerely nice. We never felt like tourists being shuffled around, more like guests with hosts that truly wanted to share their beautiful surroundings with us. They were so fun and it was clear they love their jobs. However, I don't know how they are making money when you add the hotel pickup and drop off to the price. And yes, you need to pay a 10€ port tax (nothing to do with them) and then buy transport up to Capri and Anacapri from the port and back but it's far and steep. You can't walk it. 25€ pp is a fair price and they did not charge for kids. Be sure to do the chair lift ride - it's so worth it, peaceful, beautiful. And our lovely team ensured we skipped the line. When you add up the cost of petrol, multiple staff members to safely and professionally guide, taxis, generous food and drinks - it's not much. Don't even think of going by ferry on your own, you'll spend much more by the time you see everything and lose time. It was an amazing day out with our 11 year old (swimming, seeing the island by boat and from the interior) - we all loved it! Thank you Michele from Buyourtour, Verveche Boat charter (best!!) who took us out and Viatour for helping us find it!

Fun, organized, memorable, clean, all-inclusive - Amazing hosts! The boat tour has been the best thing we have done on our trip so far. The crew was very knowledgeable and showed us. Great time. They had amazing recommendations when you get to the island and made sure to give you options on how to move about efficiently. There was time for swimming in the Mediterranean and champagne and limoncello toasts to end the trip. 10/10 would recommend this tour to anyone.
