A fun day out!

This trip was well organised and made even better by Antonio and Giovanni! They were very knowledgeable, fun and welcoming! We didn’t get to see the Blue Grotto as the tide was in but we saw other grottos and even went inside them! We had 4 hours free in Capri. Overall it was a really good day and I would highly recommend this tour

Truly memorable trip to Capri

Looked at a number of excursions operated by various operators but settled on this one. Picked up and dropped off by the friendliest driver, and looked after brilliantly by the boat crew, this was a truly memorable day. The crew manoeuvred the boat so everyone got the perfect picture. Time for swimming before going ashore. Complimentary limoncello and peroni were gratefully received with a sing along on the way home. The crew couldn't have been more friendly or attentive. Would highly recommend.

A day in Capri from Sorrento

Our guide Marco was so accommodating and made sure we did as much as we were able to. The day was rainy off and on and the Blue Grotto was closed but we still managed to see a lot of Capri and swim for as long as we wanted to. The boat ride to and from Capri was absolutely beautiful! Getting lunch was nice as we didn’t have to stop to eat and ending with a Limoncello was perfect.

Captain Peter and crew hand were great. Memorable day, many sight, lots of good music and drink. Made the second part of the day a joy even with not great weather. Highly recommend.

Meh

The tour itself was fine. The organization and delays are why I have my rating. Our poor guide was giving a new boat at the last minute. It wasn’t stocked. The tour company sent horrible information. We were told to be there at 8:30. We arrived at 8:00 to be safe. Not one of the other companies had heard of ours, so no one knew where to send us. Finally after three phones calls by another tour operator, who took pity on us, we found it. Then we sat until 9:40 in the blazing sun. The boat itself was not great. Fine if you didn’t have to use the bathroom. But not clean down below. The guide did his best but it was just OK.

Unhappy experience

Unfortunately, the experience was not exactly what was described in the excursion description. I would have never booked this if I knew the number of hours on the boat was so long. The boat was also so small We had to adjust our plans and find additional transportation home from Capri because we opted out of the tour.

Dangerous small boat tour company in Sorrento.. Be very careful!!

Extremely dangerous! No regard for passenger safety. Put money first. Looked forward to small boat trip to Capri but while most other boat tours were cancelled due to expected storm, this half hour went ahead lasting an hour. NO information, instructions nor life jackets provided. 2 men in t shirts and flip flops sailing an olden boat. Charged a extra 12 euros for a landing tax which we refused to pay. Can't I believe I was so stupid to trust these people. Be warned. If I knew who to report them to re italian authorities, I would. Described in detail to my credit card company and received credit via mastercard but not enough to compensate for nearly being drowned. Be very careful before booking these tours. Check the weather forecast for yourself and trust no one to advise you locally.

A Rip Off

Our tour never happened. No one recognized the company we booked through. We waited 2 hours to leave to Capri. We booked a tour and ended up with just a boat ride to and from Capri. This was a rip off and we are requesting a refund.

Awesome Capri Day!

Awesome time with our 8-year-old son! Sharon and the ship captain were wonderful hosts, circumnavigating the island of Capri and making sure we had everything we needed for a wonderful day. Highly recommend!
