Beautiful boat, very easy to find and check in. Incredibly welcoming host and captain. Beautiful tour around the island, hitting all of the sites with a nice leisurely swim. Great drinks and snacks provided, we had a marvelous time. Cannot recommend this tour enough!

This was a really great trip, with panoramic scenery from start to finish, plenty of time for swimming in the Mediterranean, and helpful/friendly guides. The small group format worked well - my group was friendly and fun, and it had the feeling of a private tour. Would definitely recommend this tour - it was a highlight of my visit to Italy.

Pass the natural arch and the Villa Malaparte, the former home of the Italian writer Curzio Malaparte, on the way to the Faraglioni sea stacks. Here, take a dip and enjoy “happy hour” snacks and drinks.

ludovica energy was always 100% she made tour a great experence, giuseppe is a good captain i barely felt any waves

Highly recommended! A great activity.

Eszter_B, Aug 2026

We went on a beautiful boat and we were very lucky that there were only six of us on the trip. The captain and his assistant were really cool, kind, and helpful. We learned a lot of interesting facts about the rock formations around the island. During the tour, we stopped twice to swim in absolutely stunning locations. It is an unforgettable experience and a must-do if you are vacationing in Capri. I highly recommend it!

Boat tour capri

Christy_S, Jul 2026

The tour guide called us before the tour to help us find the location. It was difficult to find on our own so that was nice. Everything was comfortable and we had a good time. The guide was very good.

This was a fun...

Isabella_G, Jul 2026

This was a fun experience, I will say however, it is a little overpriced for the amount of time of the tour. You only get to swim for about 20 minutes, and the rest of the time is spend driving around on the boat. Ana was an amazing host, very friendly, had a fun and positive attitude. We had snacks and drinks on board. Overall it was good, my only complaint is how expensive it is.

Guide anna was awesome

Xavier_C, Jul 2026

Nice trip around the island with friendly co-passengers and staff. Especially the opportunity to swim in the clear waters was great.

It was an amazing trip! We were able to see the green grotto up close and also stopped for a swim. The crew of two was the best offering some snacks and drinks along the way!

Great way to explore...

Amy_K, Jun 2026

Great way to explore Capri by water in 2 hours! Our guide shared background info on the sites we stopped by, and we had about 20 minutes or so to enjoy a swim. Would recommend.

Tour was supposed to be...

Marc_C, Jun 2026

Tour was supposed to be two hours; despite starting 10min late, we were back at the harbor in a little more than an hour and then the boat stopped (for limoncello time). Spent maybe 10-15min just floating there. Saw two grottos and were allowed to swim once. Just not the experience we had read about described.

Stunning views and Antonio is amazing!

Nancy_C, Jun 2026

The best part of our Capri day! Antonio and the captains were fantastic. Antonio made sure we had drinks and snacks. He was so engaged, he was able to get everyone swimming. It was an amazing day!! Antonio thank you again for helping have the best day!!

This boat ride was the highlight of our day trip to Capri. Highly recommend. It was great to see the island from a different perspective, and we had time to stop and swim for about 20 minutes. They had prosecco, limoncello, and beer to drink while riding around the island. A great experience.

Claudio_K, May 2026

It was just perfect loved everything about it, especially our host, she took really good care of us, told us many interesting things about Capri, took great pictures of us and made the experience even better

The tour itself was...

Cindy_M, May 2026

The tour itself was great! The scenery is stunning! A must-do if you are staying in Capri. The instructions regarding the meeting point were confusing. Using Google maps, the pin drop is actually before the actual meeting point. And, the white umbrellas (plural) don't exist. There is one white open structure that is not really what I consider an umbrella. (Probably lost in translation.) The white open structure that provides shade is the actual meeting place.

The BEST Experience!

Mary_K, May 2026

The small group was nice. Our hosts were knowledgeable and did a very nice job keeping the tour moving along. The experience was a beautiful experience we’ll never forget!

A lot of fun!

Jessica_R, Mar 2026

We went in September 2025- it was so much fun and our guides were informative and great personalities!!

I can’t wait to go back!

Kelcie_S, Feb 2026

This boat tour far exceeded my expectations. It was my third time staying on the island and I assumed the group tours were a bit of a gimmick. Nonetheless, my husband and I booked this one last minute after visiting the blue grotto. There were a total of 12 guests on this one which wound up being 6 couples. Lotta love in the air! The captain was so much fun and interactive with everyone. He played upbeat fun music and took photos in front of the Faraglioni. We swam, ate snacks, drank limoncello, and made friends! 10/10 experience
