Positano: Full Day Capri Boat Tour – Small Group Experience
Description
Experience the enchanting island of Capri in the most relaxing way — from the sea. Your journey begins with a complimentary shuttle from our meeting point in Positano (approximately a 1-hour drive) to the port on the Sorrento Peninsula, where your boat awaits. Jump on a semi-private boat in a small group for max 12 people on board. Sail along the coast and marvel at iconic landmarks such as the Salto di Tiberio, Villa Jovis, and the White Grotto. Continue cruising towards the legendary Faraglioni rock formations, the Natural Arch, and the elegant Villa Malaparte, stopping along the way for a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear sea. Afterward, enjoy approximately 3.5–4 hours of free time on Capri to explore the island at your own pace before returning by boat to the port and traveling back with our shuttle to Positano.

The White Cave is a sea cave located on the island of Capri, Italy. It derives its name from white incrustations of calcareous matter upon its sides, and from clusters of white stalactites which hang from the roof and fringe the entrance.
Suspended above the turquoise sea, this huge rock has been naturally cut into the shape of a gigantic arch. The landscape is magnificent. Further down is the entrance to the Grotta di Matromani, a grandiose natural cave transformed in the Roman period into a luxurious nymphaeum, adorned in molten glass mosaics and stucco.
A coastal and oceanic rock formation eroded and shaped by waves. The three rocks outcroppings peeking up from the sea create one of the most recognizable and captivating landscapes in the world!
Cruise past Punta Carena, home to Italy’s second most powerful lighthouse. Set on a dramatic rocky promontory, this is one of the most scenic and lesser-known spots on the island.
Marina Piccola, a charming seaside village famous for its waterfront restaurants and crystal-clear waters. Here you can take a refreshing swim, snorkel, or simply relax and soak in the Mediterranean atmosphere.
Our skipper will stop you on the Island where you will have about 3 or 4 hours to discover the island. Don't miss the chance to visit LA PIZZETTA of Capri the city centre and its narrow streets full of hand made sandals shop.

Best part of our 12-day Italy trip... totally worth every penny. We loved everything we saw and did. Our guide was so fun.
Alex and Frank made our private boat trip to Capri an absolute highlight of our trip! This is definitely the way to go — completely stress‑free, worry‑free, and so much more personal than the crowded tours. They went above and beyond, even taking beautiful photos of us during our honeymoon without us having to ask. It made the experience feel extra special and thoughtful. Exploring Capri by boat lets you see everything you see on social media — but without the crowds and chaos. It’s truly the best way to do it. Highly recommend — a must-do experience!
What a fun day in Capri! Guido is funny, informative and a great singer. He literally turned up the music and sang That's Amore to us while Salvatore circled other boats. Everyone wanted to be on our boat with the fun guide. The hours on Capri were beautiful... the chair lift took us to the most beautiful scenery on earth. The food is pricey - be prepared.
Was such a great experience! The boat day was our favorite day and Rossa was so helpful. Gave us great recommendations on what do while on the island! The boat was beautiful and sightseeing was even better. Would 100% recommend
The problem with this tour is that it is not only a boat tour. They put you on a bus, not a boat from Positano to Sorrento. which takes too much time. It is much faster to take a boat from Positano to Sorrento, then take a bus with all the traffic. Not to mention the amount of time entering and exiting the bus. Once in Sorrento, you must wait for the tour operator to let you off the bus, then pay the tax, then walk to the boat, which will take you to Capri. So the title of this tour as a boat ride from Positano to Capri is false advertising.
Mario and Antonio were great skippers and made the experience so fun! They were knowledgeable, funny, and charismatic. They walked us up to the town of Capri and helped us navigate where we wanted to go in the town. Definitely would recommend! Breath taking views and ride.
