Highly recommend - Ursula was a great tour guide, it was a beautiful tour around Capri with plenty of time to explore. My tour didn't include the blue grotto and I don't think you need it, you can skip it and still see plenty of beautiful spots around the island. Jumping off the boat to swim was the best part.

A must on your trip to the Amalfi coast! - I would recommend anyone who is visiting the Amalfi coast to book this boat tour. Antonio, our guide was fantastic. He took the time to ensure that our experience was authentic from start to finish.

The best day! - Louisa and Captain Luca were fantastic! We had a great ride out to Capri while they pointed out sights along the way. I don’t feel like we missed out on anything by not seeing the Blue Grotto. The green and white one were plenty impressive. The drinks and snacks were great! We had plenty of time on Capri to explore. My one critique would be - they should just build the $20 bus pass into the cost of the trip (or offer as an optional add on when you book) rather than a surprise sell when you get off the boat. But otherwise- great day!! Highly recommend

Great day on the water - Great time out on the boat. We had a great guide and skipper for the day, though didn’t really get much of an idea about when/how many swimming stops we would have. Though be prepared for extra costs on the island of Capri, the public transport is expensive and a bit unreliable, but essentially no other option to get around. Still had a great day on the water.

Great tour, wonderful hosts, but Capri is very expensive - We cannot fault the tour company at all. They were well organised with someone available to help at all times, prompt pick up and drop off transfers, and all staff were friendly. In particular were our two hosts on the boat, Pepe and Francesco, who were very entertaining, very hospitable and full of useful local information, including the best ways of getting around Capri. Our boat cruise left Sorrento around 10.30am. We toured Capri by boat and were dropped off around 1.15, having about 4 and a half hours on the island. After a couple of viewing stops on the way back, we arrived back at Sorrento around 7pm. It was a great day overall. However, a couple of points to mention. Firstly, whilst the itinerary suggested bringing swimwear, it did not specifically mention stopping points for swimming. We didn’t therefore bring anything suitable, but we ended up stopping twice for swimming so I’d advise taking gear. Secondly, stating the obvious, Capri is busy. And expensive. We walked from the Porto di Capri to La Piazzetta (25 min walk but steep and uphill all the way - there is also a funicular), where we ate lunch at one of the restaurants in the small square. A main course salad/pizza is 20€+ and a large beer 15€, so be prepared! Anacapri is slightly less expensive apparently but we didn’t visit there. Nevertheless, a great day overall and the time on the boat was worth it in itself.
