Featured review
Nico was so nice and very accommodating. I completely misread his instructions, (my fault!) and he was kind enough to take us for a shorter trip anyway. My family and I were so grateful for this as it was our only opportunity to visit Capri. He was kind and knowledgeable of the island. He offered us beers during the trip which just his the spot with the beautiful scenery. Would absolutely book with him again!

We had a great time: the weather was beautiful, our boat captain (Nico) very kind, the various caves interesting and the opportunities to swim very refreshing.
An awesome day out - lovely boat and great skipper
Smooth water and fabulous swimming at the green grotto
Our family thoroughly enjoyed it and would go again
The boat tour was amazing. We booked it with some friends and our family. We have a four-year-old and it was kid friendly. Would definitely do it again.
Beautiful cruise around Capri. Nico our captain was informative and helpful with good communication prior to the tour.
Highly recommend this cruise.

Nico was a wonderful captain. He gave us commentary (just the perfect amount - not constant just when needed or when we asked) and managed to get us so close to all the grottos. He found us beautiful places to swim and gave us noodles, masks and snorkels.
Towels, water and beer were provided. Nico was flexible and dropped us off at a beach club we had booked.
We watched all the packed tourist boats in the area and were so glad the 4 of us had our own private boat to ourselves. It was a wonderful experience for us. I highly recommend.
This was an amazing tour , Nico was a great captain and took us around the entire island of Capri where we had opportunity to swim and enjoy all the sights.
We had an amazing time and experience around Capri. Nico is really kind and show us the main sightseeing. The boat is gorgeous. This was the perfect experience for our honeymoon.
Unfortunately the blue grotto was closed :(
Nico was absolutely the best. Communicated great, boat was clean, safe and comfortable. Nico was super friendly and knowledgeable about the island. English was good. Tour was excellent and we highly recommend!
This was a phenomenal boat tour around Capri. Nico was our captain and he was the absolute best. He gave us our privacy while also explaining what we were passing and he took the best pictures of us when we asked. There were also some drinks on the boat which made it even better and more comfortable. I highly recommend and Nico again went above and beyond for everything we asked of him.
The tour was cancelled due to weather but working with Nico was easy.
If his tour is just as good I would go in a second. So I defintely would recommend them
amazing experience!!!! highly recommend!!!! such a great day exploring the island and nico was awesome!!
Nico did a great job of telling us about all the important spots we visited. He also was very accommodating to our requests. Would definitely recommend.
Best way to see the island, visited all the grottos. The views were amazing, along with the crystal blue water.
This boat tour was the highlight of our trip! Our captain, Nico, was friendly and very knowledgeable, answering our every little question like "What's that structure on the side of the cliff?" It was the most relaxing boat tour I have ever done. No wind smacking you in the face, making you feel like your sunglasses were going to fly off your head. I can't believe we got to see the entire island on this tour! It was better than we could have ever hoped for! 10/10 would recommend
This tour was amazing and well worth it! 3hrs was the perfect amount of time to get around to see all the stunning parts of Capri island. I'd suggest a longer time if you want to get out to see the Blue Grotto (as lines get long fast) but even without going inside those caves, we had plenty of time to visit several others, get off to swim a while and enjoy the ride. Nico was the best!! His boat was beautiful and had more than enough room to store our bags while we spent the day lounging on the sundeck. He was prompt and very communicative in helping us locate him and even assisted us in booking shuttle service to our hotel after (using his own phone). I would 10/10 recommend and book again (with Nico specifically) anytime!
Everything went great. Tour was beautiful and swimming spots were fun. Nico did a great job. The process was smooth.
Our Captain Nico was terrific and the scenery was amazing. Great way to see the Island of Capri! Highly recommend this excursion!
We loved how nice the boat was! It offered drinks, floats, and snorkel masks. Nikko was the best!! He showed us all the important places and let us swim in multiple spots
Nico was outstanding, he knew everything about Capri and more! The pick up location was very easy to get to, he communicated all around. Definitely recommend.
Great experience with Nico! He was super efficient and did an amazing tour. Would definetly recommend if you want to see the beauty of capri!
The tour was amazing, our guide Nico was the absolute man. As a local, he truly made the experience great for us. He went at our speed and was full of knowledge while being very chill. I can’t recommend this tour (and especially Nico) enough.
Definitely one of the best days of our trip to Italy. It was so nice to be on our our private boat compared to the packed group tours. We got to swim and Nico provided drinks and a stereo so we could play music. He was fantastic with communication before and had clear instructions for us to meet him. The boat was also fantastic. It looked impeccable! It was such a relaxing and beautiful day!
Relaxed half day around entire Isle of Capri. Plenty of time to soak in all the sights as well as have a swim in the sea. Nick was the perfect guide. Highly recommend.
We had a great time on this tour. Nico,
our captain, was very nice and handled the boat responsibly. He played music for us and offered us drinks. It was so relaxing having the boat exclusively for us.
Well worth the price!!
Nico our tour guide was very nice and did a great job. The tour had everything we wanted. Was promised lemoncello on description but did not happen
Really the whole experience was great. The tour guys were fun and the boat very nice. I’ll be back. Capri is beautiful and you’ll never see a coast line like it.
Arguably one of the best experiences on our trip to the Amalfi Coast. Everything was organized easily by communicating through WhatsApp and Nico contacted us the day before to make sure we knew when and where to meet. After the private boat tour, I don't think I could do a group tour because it was just nice to have the privacy of relaxing on the boat for a little extra cost. Completely worth it. Nico took us to a little cove where we dove in and enjoyed the blue waters. We tried to go to the blue grotto, but the line to get in would've been 2 hours, so we decided to maximize our time touring the island and relaxing instead. The next time we come back to Capri, we will definitely give Nico a call and we've already recommended him to all our friends!
Nico was fantastic! Incredible experience! He was very knowledgeable about the island and very accommodating! Have great recommendations on activities on the island and we had the most fabulous meal ever from one of his recommendations! We will be rebooking with Nico next time we visit Capri and would strongly recommend booking with him when you visit!
Giuseppe was a great tour guide! He contacted us prior to the tour and was very thorough on the meeting point. He was on time and gave us information on every stop on the tour. We had a great time and wold recommend this tour to our family and friends!
