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

Great ride!

Tiago_N, Oct 2025
It was some of the most beautful activite that I did in Capri. Nice crew and great people. Worth it each dollar. I would recomend to change the meeting point to "Marina Di Capri". Easier to find everyone!

Marcelo_M, Sep 2025
It was very nice. Both the captian and the guide were very attentive, they provide us a very good expirience. It would be perfect if we could have stoped 1 or two more times to dive. We made 1 stop to dive and it was amazing. We recommend this trip

Amazing afternoon of fun

Narveen_R, Sep 2025
Ana and Luca were the perfect hosts, and made the afternoon very special with their energy and enthusiasm. The swimming was amazing with some of the clearest and most pristine water we’ve ever swam in. The other guests on the boat were also great fun and really added to the experience. Would recommend to anyone looking at having a fun couple of hours seeing the sights of Capri

Fantastic day on the water

Fantastic day on the water, great spots to stop along the way with a refreshing swim and cold beverages

Colleen_T, Sep 2025
Ride was beautiful- captain and guide were wonderful! A terrific way to see the beautiful island scenery and swimming was awesome!

What a great experience!...

Kyle_M, Sep 2025
What a great experience! Probably the highlight of our trip to Capri so far! Our guide and boat captain were superb, exceeded all expectations and treated us vert well. Swimming was excellent!!

Our hosts Anna and Luca...

Joe_S, Sep 2025
Our hosts Anna and Luca were very friendly and the boat was in great shape! Swimming in the Gulf of Napoli is something that will stay with me for the rest of my life. Stunning views and good company. One note is that it’s a bit confusing to find the meeting point since the picture on the listing is seemingly out of date.

Amazing experience with Francesco and Peperino!

Douglas_S, Sep 2025
Amazing experience! We messaged the tour operator to make sure we were in the right place and they responded very quickly. We were promptly greeted by Luiza at the meeting point, who was very friendly with us. Even though the weather was cloudy and there was a possibility of rain, the tour proceeded. We felt so happy that it did. Our guides on the boat were Francesco and Peperino. Francesco was an excellent host, very funny and energetic. He spoke English very well, kept us entertained with information, drinks, snacks. The boat itself was very nice, with seating at the back or on the deck. We sat on the deck and enjoyed the views. We got wonderful photos at the Faraglioni rocks, and went for a swim. We were provided pool noodles to help stay afloat, and the water was the perfect temperature, only slightly cold, but warmed after a minute or two of being on the water. Even though I am susceptible to sea sickness, I took gravol to help keep me feeling okay, and the boat driver Peperino kept the boat very stable and we moved at a good pace, and I would do it again. Boating around the island is an essential experience in Capri, and taking the tour with You Know boat tours, Francesco and Peperino, is an excellent choice. Don't forget to bring a tip for them, they do excellent work and are working very hard to ensure you have a wonderful time. Grazie mille!

AMAZING. We were doing a day trip to Capri from Sorrento. We are so happy we booked this tour. The boat was beautiful and comfortable. Perfect size group of people. Francisco was the best, very informative but a lot of fun! They provided a lot of snacks and drinks, made it very comfortable. The views were phenomenal and just breathtaking. We were able to swim in the most gorgeous water I’ve ever seen and it was perfect timing. Spectacular steering by the captain I might add as well. Overall, a highlight of our trip. Would 100000% book again!!

Be sure to understand your meeting place as not clear on instructions. Trip itself was very good and worth it

So worth it!

Cara_E, Sep 2025
Wow this was incredible! Two very friendly guides and an amazing 2 hours on the water. They gave us more than we were expecting including sodas and drinks, fruit and other snacks and they took lots pictures when we asked!

Wonderful views of Capri

Christopher_B, Sep 2025
Relaxing cruise around the island with friendly informative guide and opportunity to go swimming beneath towering cliffs

A wonderful way to end our trip to Italy!

Denise_T, Sep 2025
What a wonderful time we had on our boat cruise around Capri. After experiencing the heat in Naples my daughter and I were looking forward to some nice sea breezes from a boat. This experience met all our expectations. The boat was very nice and comfortable. We had the opportunity to take a swim in the cool water , which is absolutely beautiful ! I have never seen water so blue and clear ! Had a nice snack of wine and fruit which really hit the spot. I would go again if I return to Capri.

Francisco was awesome! My...

Ipsita_G, Sep 2025
Francisco was awesome! My husband and I had a great time seeing the grottoes and the Faraglioni. Francisco definitely made the tour with his local knowledge and his humor, thank you!

Great tour!

Stephanie_P, Sep 2025
Luisa and “bad boy” captain Jack were fantastic! Despite some choppy conditions, we still had a great time, and we were given more time to swim on the calmer side of the island. We had drinks and some snacks provided, and finished with some home-made limoncello. If you’re visiting Capri I definitely recommend this tour!!

Beautiful tour with wonderful hosts!

Renee_N, Sep 2025
The tour was beautiful from start to finish and Louisa and Jack were welcoming hosts throughout our tour. We were provided fresh fruit, chips, a small Italian dessert as well as drinks and a limoncello shot. Beautiful views and the weather was amazing! 10/10 would recommend!

Fun hosts and great time!...

Gabrielle_T, Sep 2025
Fun hosts and great time! The guides made sure we had a great time, even though the island gave us sub-optimal weather. Highly recommend!

Perfect for 2 hours

Megan_D, Sep 2025
Great experience! We saw what we wanted and didn’t linger too long. Had nice information and the crew was very nice. FYI the meeting point photo is outdated. The security gain is now a round looking structure. The white umbrella (about 10 feet past it) was closed but we waited along the wall of flowers across the umbrella. Would recommend!

Great fun boat trip one...

Rob_M, Aug 2025
Great fun boat trip one of the best we have done. Antonio was a great host and very knowledgeable. Recommend

Excellent taste of Capri from the sea

Emilylpearman, Aug 2025
Wonderful short day trip around Capri. Tour guide appeared quite abrupt at the start, could tell other tour members also felt this. However this subsided as the tour went on and can confirm we had a lovely trip. Only had 1 spot for a swim, would've loved if there was another opportunity for swimming as we viewed some beautiful areas via the boat. Lots of snacks provided throughout the trip.

Shoutout to Host Yanna! 🙌🥳🥰

Veronica_L, Aug 2025
10 out of 10 for the experience. But first, allow yourself enough time to meet with the excursion group because the directions for the meetup are terrible. We left our hotel 30 minutes in advance, even though it's only a 8-10 minute trip from our hotel. Major shoutout to Yanna, our Boston host; she's really a real-life mermaid. I was scared to get in the ocean, but she got the fear out of me, and I enjoyed the beautiful Capri water. Shoutout to the captain. We had a blast.
