5.00This was a perfect day! Don’t hesitate to book it! The Blue Grotto was short but amazing, like nothing you’ll ever see again. The rest of the tour experience was even better. So many wonderful memories.

5.00We had a great time and the boat is a great way to spend a day with the family. Very little down time and the crew on the boat were amazing. They even found out that it was my wife’s birthday and they ended up getting us treats to celebrate.
Amazing boat tour

5.00Our Capri boat tour with You Know! was absolutely amazing! The staff were so friendly and welcoming, and the whole experience was so well organized. We had about 5 hours of free time to explore Capri, plus a beautiful tour of the island from the water. The swim and snorkel stop was such a fun highlight. We had an absolute blast and would highly recommend this tour!

4.00We recently enjoyed a boat trip to the Blue Grotto, Capri and Anna Capri with Louisa as our main guide and Jack as our captain. Louisa was exceptional—very professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful in guiding us once we arrived onshore. She thoughtfully shared the best places to see, which helped us make the most of our time on the island. The tour was informative and smoothly managed, which we appreciated. We understood early on that due to high tides in the morning, visiting the Blue Grotto wasn’t possible. However, since it opened later in the afternoon, it would have been nice to have the option to return for a visit, as this was the main attraction for many of us and we were looking forward to. One area of concern was the behavior observed from the captain Jack in the late afternoon. He acted erratic and made facial expressions and gestures toward Louisa that were inappropriate in front of us. While this did not impact the overall experience significantly, it was noticeable and uncomfortable. Overall, the trip offered beautiful sights and great guidance, especially thanks to Louisa’s expertise.
