The magical island of Capri has charmed visitors for centuries, from great Roman Emperors to famous playwrights and celebrities of all times: join the island jet set with an exclusive boat trip. Choose between a shared small-group tour or upgrade to a private experience for a more exclusive and personalized adventure. On board of an elegant “gozzo”, with an experienced skipper and just 8 guests, you will discover the most beloved island in the world. Visit the Blue Grotto and kiss under the Faraglioni sea stacks, swim and snorkel in the clear waters and enjoy some free time on the island to shop in high-end boutiques or have a gelato in the Piazzetta.

    This was an amazing excursion with all of the boxes checked. Beautiful boat with excellent guides and good food and drinks. The day in Capri was wonderful with lots to do. We saw all of the grottos on the boat and had time for a refreshing swim - it was a perfect day on the water!

  • Perfect day

    Beautiful boat, great captain and informative guide with You Know charters out of Sorrento. We made it into the blue grotto without much of a wait at all and had all day to explore Capri and then swim.

    We LOVED our boat trip to Capri! The sites and caves we got to see and explore were amazing. The captain of our boat was so skilled at driving in and out of the caves to make sure everyone had a great view. We had a lot of photo opportunities as well. The time spent on Capri was great too, enough to enjoy lunch and shop a bit. Highly recommend this tour.

  • Do this boat trip!

    Best part of our trip to Amalfi Coast area! Wonderful small boat, new and comfortable. Lovely coastline. Our crew, Luca and Anna, were so very fun and knowledgeable!!!

    I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was such a letdown that I feel others should be warned before booking. The main reason I chose this tour was to see the Blue Grotto, which was clearly listed as a highlight of the day. But when we arrived and there was a wait (which is to be expected), the captain casually suggested skipping it. One guest was particularly forceful about moving on, and with the captain offering no encouragement to stay, it felt like I was being pressured into giving up the experience I came for. I spoke up and said I wanted to stay, but the atmosphere turned uncomfortable fast. I ultimately gave in and said to continue to Capri, but I felt bullied and ignored. The tour also advertised snacks/sandwiches and drinks on board, which weren’t offered until just before we docked at Capri—far too late to be useful. And when we finally got the food, it was shockingly bad: two slices of stale bread with the ends of a tomato and a tiny piece of cheese. In Italy, of all places, this was a real disappointment. To top it off, the weather was cold and overcast, and no blankets or provisions for comfort were offered. For a “private” boat tour at this price point, it was surprising how little attention was paid to guest experience or hospitality. I was so uncomfortable by the end that I bought a ferry ticket back on my own just to avoid the return trip with the same group and captain. If you’re hoping for a genuine Italian excursion, soaking in the beauty of the Amalfi Coast by boat, this isn’t it. The poor group dynamic, lack of basic hospitality, skipped itinerary items, and subpar food made this a major disappointment. I cannot recommend this tour.
