What an amazing experience! Our boat driver, Flavio was super enthusiastic & did a wonderful job explaining the full island of Capri by boat. We lucked out and got to do the Blue Grotto! We also experienced seeing the remaining grottos on our boat ride back to Sorrento. Seeing Capri by boat on this tour is the way to go! We had 12 people total and all fit comfortably! They provided refreshments and fresh fruit as we sailed back to Sorrento. It was the perfect day!

Elena and Vincenzo - our guide and captain - were fantastic. We were literally the very first boat to arrive at the Blue Grotto, and ours was the first boat into the grotto. We explored the coast getting firsthand narrative from Elena, then after exploring Capri, we anchored off the coast and swam in the beautiful blue water. It was a perfect day. Some advice for Capri - take a taxi to Anacapri right away, or get to the Villa Lysis, or shop around town and take the path down the back way back to Marina Piccolo from the Gardens of Augustus. Molto bene!

Alessandro was amazing for our tour to Capri and the Blue Grotto. He certainly helped us make the most of our trip knowing that the weather was going to impact the itinerary. Such a fun trip though and the grotto was so beautiful!

A small group tour with only 12 of us. A lovely boat, a fabulous captain, Flavio, and spectacular scenery. We chose this tour as it mentioned being first up at the Blue Grotto, which we were. Like most of Italy, there were added costs, visitor tax, grotto tax, grotto entry, and tips, but none of this detracted from the day. We had great weather too. Flavio was very personable & enjoyed sharing his knowledge of the island with us. Well worth the trip.

Beautiful clean boat, ontime departure, friendly safe guide and captain. The Blue Grotto was chaotic, but worth the experience. The on your own time on the island was just right. We were blessed with beautiful clear skies and sun over calm seas for the entire day!

Thank you FLAVIO for the wonderful day. My husband and I both said that the Capri day trip was the perfect day. The boat was beautiful, Flavio was very informative and stopped at many sites along the way to tell us about the history and significance of the rocks. The blue grotto was unbelievable and we appreciated his tip to take the taxi to the chairlift in Capri (must do!) Flavio had drinks for us and we all enjoyed the happy hour at the end of the day with Prosecco and beer (and especially the fun moment driving under the arch!!). Had an amazing time thanks to Flavio’s incredible hospitality. Highly recommend this tour!

Wow, what an amazing day, one I will always remember. Orsola and Nino (apologies if i got that slightly wrong) were so attentive and looked after us so well and a lot of fun! I felt safe and comfortable and it was truly one of the best experiences in my time spent in Italy. We loved the swimming stops and the lunch baguette and drinks throughout as well as the captain’s singing! A lovely boat so comfortable and lovely that it was a small group. Would highly recommend to anyone! Already have blues from this trip! Thank you again :)
