    The visit is subject to the weather/sea conditions.
  • White Grotta - Once arrived, you can admire, among the white limestone rocks, the strong contrast between the light of the cave and the blue of the sea, making this place surreal also thanks to the thick and suggestive stalactites and stalagmites.

Excellent - This was a beautiful, relaxing, and magical tour! The boat ride was smooth, the tour guides Vittorio and Roberto were excellent. The Blue Grotto was amazing and well worth it. Capri island itself is mostly shopping and some over priced restaurants. The cruise around the island was breathtaking! I would highly recommend this tour!

One of the highlights of our trip to the Amalfi Coast - Just a brilliant trip from start to finish. Flavio was an absolutely fantastic skipper and if you book with MBS Blu I really recommend you ask for him especially as he tours Capri in the best order. Sailing through the arch in the Faraglioni rocks with Caruso playing through the speakers on the boat was just incredible. Lovely people on the boat too. A perfect day and worth every penny.

THE BEST TIME! - Amazing experience! I am here with my husband for our honeymoon, and we had the best time with Lu and Captain Luigi! The atmosphere was so fun. Lou played great music, was very informative and super helpful with assisting us on recommendations where to go. We went to the Blue Grotto, Capri and then went swimming (an all day event). While Capri was very busy, it was still a pleasant experience we enjoyed our time! My favorite part of the trip was swimming in the ocean. They’re the best crew to go with! I highly recommend booking with them- you will not regret it. My husband and I had an amazing day. Thanks Lu and Luigi!!!

Great trip and totally recommend asking for Luigi and Vittoria - We booked our tour through AirB&B and, although pessimistic of the day’s weather forecast, we were reassured by Enrico not to worry and all would be well for the trip. The crew, Luigi and Vittoria, kept us and our fellow passengers entertained throughout the tour with plenty of anecdotes, interesting facts about Capri and the Blue Grotto, and some karaoke on our return to Sorrento. Capri was a smörgåsbord of designer shops, restaurants and little streets to lose yourself in for a couple of hours. The blue grotto was an unforgettable experience, and to cap it all a couple of dolphins made an appearance! We got to swim with fish and overall we had a fantastic day. Grazie mille a Luigi e Vittoria

Great Tour & Fantastic Guides Elena & Vincenzo! - My Girlfriend and I had a great time on this Tour thanks to our Tour Guide Elena and Speedboat Captain Vincenzo. There were 3 other couples on our boat. We cruised around the entire Island of Capri and stopped for two hours in one of the two ports on the Island to eat lunch and visit the local shops. We enjoyed seeing the many coves and giant stone monoliths that jet out of the sea around the Island. However, on the day of our Tour, we were unable to see the Blue Grotto as the waves were too rough for the individual canoes to take us inside the cave (it’s a small opening). Regardless, we still had a great day. One of the highlights of the day was when Vincenzo brought out some of his delicious homemade limonchello for all of us to drink on the boat! It was some of the best limonchello we drank while in Italia! We loved this Tour and our Guides Elena and Vincenzo!

Would recommend! - We had a lovely time on our excursion over to Capri Island. This company brings you early to the Blue Grotto which was great because I can only imagine how crazy the line gets. We were not offered drinks or the fruit until halfway into the excursion which is why I gave it only 4 stars.

We are glad we took this boat trip! - The boat trip was well organized and very fun. We found the skippers to be engaging and enjoyed their personalities and humor. They were very respectful but not stiff. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was because of the Capri island experience. The skippers gave advice but were not clear enough about how to travel the island. We wasted our time there by waiting in long lines for what turned out to be the wrong bus and being stuck in the crowded city center. I wish they had told us in a more direct way how to enjoy the island. The taxi service was more expensive than the skippers knew, and after paying 12€ for two basic cappuccinos, we decided not to have lunch there. Another thing to mention is when I looked to book this trip, the price advertised was I think about $131 per person. But actually, it was more than $175 pp, plus the Capri tax and the Blue Grotto fee (both of these fees were mentioned up front). Either Trip Advisor or the boat company need to clear that up. The Blue Grotto and the swimming experience in the Tyrrhenian sea were both quite amazing. We didn't bring a towel and the skippers gave us a spare to use. On the motorboat we had fresh fruit and all the drinks we wanted. The padded deck was comfortable and the skippers were great about pointing out our surroundings and warning us about larger waves. The other passengers were nice and fun as well. We always felt safe and were returned to the dock in Sorrento on time, smiling ear to ear.

Waste of money - These were the “inclusions” promised Bottled water Prosecco and Beer Soft drinks Seasonal fruit Use of Snorkelling equipment Restroom on board None of them were shown to us or offered. The weather was unfortunate, and that’s not the tour guides’ fault, but we really were not prepared for the conditions nor were we presented with the aforementioned accommodations. Take the ferry to Capri instead. Don’t waste $300+ on the “tour”.
