Alexia and the captain, Marco, were friendly, informative, and made this trip so much fun! They took us straight to the Blue Grotto first thing to avoid the crowds that come later. Then, we were given 3 hours in Capri to do whatever one wanted to do without the pressure of a directed tour. Everyone on the boat did whatever they wanted to do. We decided to head to Anacapri by taxi to ride the chair lift (which was fantastic and had incredible views of the island), and then we took a taxi to Capri and had lunch and walked around some. Each ride was short. Overall, it was just enough time. After we met back at the dock, they took us around the back of the island and we circled the whole island before heading back. First, we stopped at a green grotto. We then stopped at a white grotto. We later stopped at a beautiful swimming spot and many of us jumped in and swam for a bit. Some on our boat didn’t know to bring bathing suits but we had worn ours. We then went past the houses and yachts on the luxurious back side of the island, and finally to the famous Faraglioni rock formations. It all was so beautiful. I can’t say enough about how nice Alexia and Marco were. A fantastic experience! Bring cash because you will want to tip them for sure!

It was a great day on the water and on the island of Capri. Damiano and Marco were perfect guides! I would definitely recommend this tour with this crew!

We had such a great day! Alexis and Capt. Frankie were absolutely fabulous. The boat was so clean and beautiful. We were to blue grotto early and beat the crowds so we got right in. The guide who took us until the grotto was also great and had a wonderful singing voice. Haha. We had plenty of time to explore capri/anacapri on our own but were given plenty of direction on how to see and do the things we wanted to by Alexis and Capt Frankie. They even put us in the taxi and got us headed in the right direction. We wanted to do the chairlift to the top of the mountain. After our time on capri, we stopped for a swim in the sea and just enjoy the surroundings. It really was a perfect day. Highly highly recommend this tour.

Francesco and Alessia were fantastic. Two good characters with great knowledge of Capri and the surrounding coastline. It was a smooth ride their and back with plenty of time to explore Capri with a 4 hour stop there. I can't fault the trip, I got a tiny bit wet 🤏🏼sitting in the splash zone seat at the back of the boat but it was a part of the experience and you are on a boat in the ocean , you have to expect to get a little wet.
10/10 trip . The captain and crew completely to thank for that! 🛥️

Roberto was our captain and made it a great day! The small group was nice and we got a lot of time on Capri as well as on the water surrounding it. It was such a relaxing and beautiful day.

The boat captain Damien was a very good boat driver and very nice. Told us good things to do in Capri and Ana Capri. The chair lift was our highlight. We waited an hour and a half to go through Blue Grotto which was a five min paddle boat ride. All in all a good tour
