Capri Private Boat Tour

Arranging the tour in advance is a must as you will be bombarded with solicitations as you get off the ferry from Naples. Doing a three hour private tour around the island was amazing. The boat was nice and relaxing, the captain was a great tour guide, and the stops were breathtaking. The blue grotto is part of the stop, we decided to skip that as the wait in line is at least an hour and then you sit in a boat waiting for your turn to go in for 5 minutes. Beware that it will be closed for rough seas. This tour was exceptional, great communication from the operator, perfect length of time. We would definitely use them again when visiting Capri.

Highly recommended for a beautiful view of the Capri coastline.

We had an amazing 3 hour boat trip which took us around the whole coast of the Island of Capri. Our guide was very knowledgeable and robots of interesting facts about the numerous grottos we visited and coastal areas. We were particularly impressed with his boating skills, he navigated some of the grottos beautifully enabling us to see some of the fascinating rock formations and crystal clear turquoise waters. We were blessed with good weather which made for a perfect excursion. We have never been on a boat trip like this before as we are nervous at sea but it was a really lovely and relaxing experience because we felt like we were in safe hands.

So glad we did this!

This experience was fantastic!! The boat tour was definitely the highlight of our entire day in Capri! Gianlucca was amazing and so kind. He was full of information and took photos of our group anytime we asked. The waters and cokes were a nice touch to the 3 hour day on the water. It was a beautiful day and we had a terrific time seeing beautiful Capri! Unfortunately, the blue grotto was closed due to the high tide but this excursion allowed us to see the other grottos so the day was not lost! Thank you!

An amazing day!

My niece highly recommended a Capri boat tour, so I shopped around. This company had great prices and reviews so I chose them. It was a good choice! Francesco, our captain, was SO nice! He's a great boat driver and tour guide. He took his time showing us the island, all the cool things and made sure we had a good time. BEST day of our vacation by far!

Great way to spend 3 hours in Capri

We took a 3 hour private boat tour with Capri Precious and had an absolutely fantastic time. What a great way to spend part of your visit to this idyllic spot. While we were unable to see the Blue Grotto we circled the whole island and we able to see all the other major highlights with time for a swim in crystal clear water. I would recommend this highly to others.

Fabulous day on the water in Capri

We had an awesome day on the boat tour with Francesco on our 3 hour trip. We were a group of 5 adults and 2 children and our whole group had an amazing day on the water. Francesco was and excellent skipper and explained all the places we visited. The most special part was seeing our grandchildren’s sheer joy being on the boat. Fabulous trip and I would not hesitate to recommend Capri Precious.

Beautiful Capri!

A must do excursion in a private boat around the island of Capri! We took a ferry over to Capri from Positano for the day and booked this two hour private boat tour! Nico was the owner and Captain and he was so accommodating and kind! The boat was beautiful and comfortable! We went in many caves which was exciting! The water is such a beautiful blue! The highlight of course is cruising around the Faraglioni Rocks and getting our photos taken in front of them! Just beyond we got out and swam awhile and enjoyed some refreshments. The website says a Limoncello tasting, but although he did not have any, there was beer, water and soft drinks available. After exploring Capri by land, this was a perfect way to see the sites of Capri from the water! We highly recommend this boat tour and we will book again if we visit the area in the future! Thank you Nico for a wonderful two hours on the water around beautiful Capri!

Our private boat tour...

Our private boat tour with Capri Precious was the highlight of our honeymoon! Nico was FANTASTIC! We were out on the water for almost 3 hours, got to stop and swim, and we visited several grottos and caves. We would recommend this activity to anyone and everyone! We can’t wait to come back someday.
