Meet your driver at 09:45 AM at Parking Achille Lauro in Sorrento, then transfer to the picturesque Porto di Piano di Sorrento for check-in and boarding. After a warm welcome from your skipper, set off along the coast, enjoying panoramic views as you cruise toward the island of Capri.

Pass by

As you approach Capri, admire Marina Grande, the island's vibrant harbor and historic fishing village dotted with colorful houses.

10 min

On the way to Capri, stop briefly near the ancient Roman villa ruins at Bagni della Regina Giovanna, where history meets nature in a hidden swimming cove.

10 min

Sail along the island’s dramatic cliffs and explore Capri’s sea caves. Marvel at the bright limestone walls of the White Grotto and the sculptural formations inside the Marvelous Grotto.

15 min

Admire the striking emerald tones of the Green Grotto, where sunlight filters through the water, creating a dazzling underwater light show.

Cruise through the iconic Faraglioni sea stacks, the natural symbol of Capri — a must for that perfect postcard photo.

Disembark at Marina Grande and enjoy approximately 4 hours of free time to explore the island at your own pace. Visit Piazzetta di Capri, ride the funicular, explore charming shops, or enjoy lunch with a view — your experience, your way.

Best boat tour of Sorrento and Capri!

If you are looking to see the coastline and get the full tour of the Island of Capri from the sea, this is the tour for you! Anna was the best tour guide! She was full of energy, knowledgeable and even helped get us to the island bus to see Capri. Catello, our captain was fantastic! We had a small group of 12 on the boat that included 2 stops to get into that beautiful deep blue sea! Highly recommend this all day tour!

Girls Trip

It was the best experience with Antonio and Raffe! They were energetic and so kind. Very knowledgeable about the area. Capri was beautiful of course. I loved having time to swim (and I’m not the best swimmer! But no judgement was passed, and there were pool noodles available to help). Would definitely recommend. Unforgettable experience. 10/10!
