Giuseppe was the absolute best guide! He was so knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor that made us laugh the whole time. Furthermore, he was also a great captain and navigator through the waters when it was a bit rocky! Overall I highly recommend this tour for anyone, you will truly enjoy it.

Great day trip to Capri with Guisseppe!

Wendy_L, Aug 2025

Guisseppe was a great boat captain!! He took our group out for a day trip to Capri- he stopped along the way for photo opportunities, site seeing, swims in the ocean, etc. He was fun and accommodating to the group and communication was clear. Boat was clean and well kept. We had a great day!

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Good Day Wendy, thanks I show to Giuseppe your review and he is very happy for your appreciacion. He is accomodating and quite and he wish you come back here for another boat tour with him.

Good Choice for Private Tour

John_m, Jun 2025

Positano to Capri private boat tour was an excellent choice. The captain and skipper, Giuseppe and Giuseppe, were friendly, professional and accommodating. The boat was exactly as advertised and excellently maintained. I would highly recommend this tour if you’re looking to avoid the crowds. PRO’s: the tour gives you a personalized experience of a tour to Capri. CON’s: the description of this tour in Viator is somewhat misleading. In the full description, it indicates that lunch at the private beach club is included. In the what’s included section, it indicates that lunch is not. Not a big deal to me, however, if you do choose the lunch option, it is $100 per person. They should tell you that. If you choose not to do the lunch at the private beach club, the alternative is to go to the grand Marina, where you will have to pay $100 for disembarking the boat. That is also not advertised. These types of costs should be clear when paying for a tour this expensive. The only other con is the meeting point in Positano at the main pier is a bit chaotic. There is a stall location for Positano boat tours, however they pointed us to another, who pointed us to another, who pointed us to another creating much confusion. We finally contacted the captain through the Viator app who instructed us to go back to Positano boat tours. They need to clear this up.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Dear John, you write this review doing too much confusion. First of all the full description of the boat tour clearly say the meeting point is on the ONLY pier of Positano. Why you went on the beach searching for us! Of course we are not there. We have always a stewart on the pier assisting you for boarding, we lose max 10 minutes as average to embark and disembark the guests. The other companies takes sometimes even one hour for doing this, under the sun. Second thingh, in Capri after the complete tour of the island, we stop almost all the times in a restaurant for lunch unless the guests ask to disembark in the port of Capri paying 100 € port fee compulsory to pay for all private boats. But not 100 € for person as you stated to pay in a restaurant. You've mentioned that we include the meal in the restaurant in our description, so if you seat and order lobsters and champagne we should pay for it! Of course the meal in the restaurant is not included. What you eat you pay! We stop in Capri in same restaurants to avoid you to pay the 100 € port fee. From the restaurant after lunch you may visit Capri and then come back on board without paying any fee. That's why almost all the guests they prefer to stop to eat somethingh without waste 100 € to pay for port fee. I hope my explanations adjusted the confusion you wrote for the other travellers reading this, thanks.

Perfect!!

Taylor_S, Aug 2024

LOVED LOVED LOVED!! We annoy say enough about this experience. It was so much fun and our boat driver was amazing. We did the tour from Positano to Capris and we had plenty of time to walk about Capris. The boat was so clean and we got to swim and see great things. We also learned a lot as well’

Capri

ChristineY_G, May 2024

We enjoyed it but would have liked to have spent more time in Capri, boat was slow getting there, did not really spend much time going through grotto and rock tunnel and did not need a reservation at restaurant, wasted too much time eating! Views were stunning!

Response from Host, May 2024

Dear Mrs Christine, I just want to clarify that this is a new boat build in 2023 with new engines of 270 hp, we can run up to 30 knots but there is a speed limitation inside the marine park of "Punta Campanella", that's why we proceed at abt 12 to 14 knots, also its a pleasure boat typical of this area, called "GOZZO", and usually we sail along the coast not very fast to show the beatiful view which this land offer. From Positano we went first to show you "Li Galli Islands" so we have done this deviation increasing a bit the distance, but usually from Positano to Capri is abt 1 hr to reach. In Capri during the tour we've shown all the grottos of the island as described in the tour details. Usually we let the pax stay in Capri 3 / 3.5 hrs for a lunch break and /or to visit the island. In total the boat tour duration its abt 7,5 to 8 hrs, more time of many other companies organizing the same boat tour. Best Regards Capt Simon

Day you will never forget

Chris_O, Aug 2023

Just an absolutely spectacular time. I knew it would be great, but pictures and reviews don’t do it justice. Blew away every expectation I had. A truly unforgettable experience. Capri is really something else. Simone and crew were the best. The for sure highlight of the trip!
