Unforgettable!!!

It is one of the best activities you cannot miss; the service is fabulous, the day is incredible, and Vicente is a great host who made our day wonderful. Without a doubt, I would do it again with my family.

Perfect!

So fun! The driver and first mate felt like family by the time we got off the boat. They booked our taxi to and from the dock as well as lunch on capri. We saw it all and swam through one of the grottos. They suggest when is best to swim vs ride. No complaints. Best service on the water. Worth it 100%! Best value to avoid ferries and sharing a boat with others.

Spectacular experience

The experience was amazing. A private tour with a magnificent captain, who was willing for us all along. Some food and drinks on board and above all a beautiful attitude. The boat in very good condition, clean and safe. The captain (Vicenzo) was aware of everything we wanted, and this was the real advantage of having a private tour.

Highly recommend Charters Dolcevita

We had two boat tours with Dolcevita: both were fabulous! Both from Sorrento with one to the isle of Capri and the other to Positano and Nerano. Everything was really well organised by Naomi who kept in touch by WhatsApp and made everything easy for us, helping us with all our questions. The boat was very comfortable and perfect for touring the coast. Naomi recommended a number of restaurants on Capri and booked a great sea front table for us at a lovely restaurant. We were lucky enough to have Toni as our skipper for our tour to Capri, who quickly made us feel very welcome, spoke perfect English and great company. His knowledge of the history of the Amalfi Coast was exceptional and he showed us many places of interest, and great places to swim. The next day on our tour of the Amalfi Coast to Positano and Nerano we were lucky enough to have both Toni and Vincenzo as our skippers, both so professional, welcoming and great company again. We had many chances for a swim and Toni booked us into a great coastal restaurant in Nerano - a true Italian family experience in authentic surroundings! Dolcevita ensured everything for us was easy and seemless, and our experiences on their boat made our stay in Sorrento very special. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Excellent and personable trip. Comfortable boat and you can tailor your itinerary. We did loads of nice swim stops and could spend plenty of time in Capri exploring. Our skipper Vincenzo was lovely and made sure we were happy and comfortable.
