A great day trip to Capri and the Amalfi coast - A great self drive day out. Booking helpful and clarified by phone, clear briefing, RIB in good order and a lovely trip around Capri and along to Positano. Still left plenty if time for swim spots. Helpful and friendly dock crew when we got back.

Best way to see the Amalfi coast - Great boat hire. Easy boat to drive and simple enough to throw the anchor down and stop for swims. Best way to see the Amalfi coast without dealing with the crowds of people. We had such a good time we rented the boat for a second time to go over to Capri. Would highly recommend. Very good communication

Would recommend a Day Boat Rental! - Highlight of our Italy trip was renting a boat and cruising the sea. Amalfi Coast Rentals ended up being very helpful and made it a great day. It started out fine. It was hard to find where they were located at the busy Marina. We ended up asking a local and they told us to walk all the way down the boardwalk to where the boats were docked. We found our instructor and he gave us the news that they forgot to book our boat for us! Asked if we could do tomorrow instead and we couldn’t, so they made some calls and were able to rearrange some stuff to make it work for us!! We were all set to go as originally planned. The 4 of us drove to Capri. The sea was bigger waves than we were used to but no problem. We docked at the island and swam in the sea. We stopped for lunch on the island (a hassle so make sure you do research before) and headed back just in time to return the boat for 6pm. The return process was easy they even helped us refill gas! Would definitely recommend renting your own boat for the day!
