Magical day in Capri - We had a magical day in Capri on this boat tour. Francesco was a wonderful tour guide that took us to amazing swimming spots. He had a knack for arriving when other boats were leaving so it wasn’t crowded. Definitely recommend this tour!!

Don’t miss doing this tour. - This is a must for anyone visiting Capri, the perspective and experience you get from the sea is amazing. Francesco was an expert captain who could turn the boat on a Euro coin. He entered all the grottos, negotiated his way through the queue for the blue grotto and provided plenty of time for swims around caves and clear waters. We never felt rushed at any time. For our family of 4 this turned out to be the highlight of the holiday and well worth the money.

Spectacular Day - We had the best weather and the best driver for our tour of Capri. We saw everything we wanted to see and Francesco was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the history of the island. He had all the supplies we could want and he was easily able to take us into some pretty tight spaces to see some absolutely spectacular scenery. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in seeing Carli from the water and I would also recommend requesting Francesco. Best day of our trip.

Great experience seeing Capri! - Great time with Guissepe!! He was a great boat driver and tour guide! The Blue Grotto was closed due to weather but he really made up for it and took us around Capri and into small grottos instead. The boat was nice and clean and comfortable! Would highly recommend!

A must do! Stunning boat ride! - 1000 percent book this excursion! It was the highlight of our trip to Capri; nothing beats the views of the island than by boat! Our guide was so much fun and brought us to unique places to swim (including a cave!) My daughters kept saying it was the most beautiful thing they'd ever seen and I would have to agree. When we come back (see what I did there?) this will be on our agenda; we didn't want the ride to end!

Beautiful ride! - We enjoyed a beautiful ride with Francesco. The Blue Grotto was closed but he drove us into every other Grotto around the island and pointed out many sites and told us basic history... we also went for a swim and he took nice pics of our family.
