This was such a great day out on the water. Victorio was such a great captain! The water was pretty choppy and he navigated the chop like an expert and went out of his way to make the ride as smooth as possible. Will 100% be recommending this company to friends and will be rebooking next time we are in Sorrento.

A must do in Italy. Absolutely incredible day. My children said it was the highlight of all vacation days…ever! Our Captain, Alberto was tremendous…with a ton of local knowledge and took us to places very few boats could navigate. Cannot recommend this enough.

We had such a great time. Vittorio was so great and very kind and knowledgeable. It was so fun and we would do it again. Also he was flexible allowing us to stay more time at one spot than another. My daughter and I felt very safe.

I booked this and as the day approached there was a misunderstanding. The manager called me and rectified it and was amazing to work with. The day was incredible with our captain Jett.

Unforgettable Private Boat Tour from Sorre

Lourdes_b, May 2025

We had the most amazing experience on our private half-day boat tour from Sorrento to Capri. From start to finish, everything was perfect. VITTORIO arranged everything including our car transportation to and from Sorrento from Naples and guided us step by step. Our captain FLAVIO was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. He tailored the trip to our preferences, stopping and taking pictures at beautiful spots like several Grotto and the Faraglioni rocks. The boat was clean, spacious, and he provided water and Peroni beer. The views along the Sorrento coast and around Capri were absolutely breathtaking. One of the highlights was cruising through hidden caves and seeing Capri from the water—an experience that’s truly one of a kind. This tour was the highlight of our trip to Italy. If you're considering it, don’t hesitate—it’s worth every euro. Highly recommended!

Response from Host, May 2025

My husband and I made a last minute decision to take this boat ride and we were very glad we did! Our skipper, Tomas, was fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the Sorrento coast and Capri. We highly recommend this experience!

Great day boating around Capri

tarik_j, Apr 2024

We had an amazing time wrapping up our trip to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. We definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to spend time seeing Capri. We did the half day due to our travel schedule but could have easily spent the whole day. The crew was super accommodating and knowledgeable about the area. Highly recommend!!

10/10 recommend!!

Capri Boat Tour for family

Michael_O, May 2022

We are a family of 4 with Juri as our operator. He spoke very good English, took us everywhere around Capri and gave us whatever time we wanted at each stop. We had a great time swimming, shopping, eating at local restaurant, experiencing the blue grotto, green grotto, and white grotto.

Response from Host, May 2022
