Best Day on the Amalfi Coast - Gianfranco Was Incredible!
10/10 experience with Blue Star Boat Tours!
Absolutely incredible day from start to finish. The boat, the scenery, the stops, and the entire experience were fantastic, but Gianfranco really made the day special. He was an excellent skipper: professional, knowledgeable, friendly, attentive, and a great skipper.
He made everyone feel completely comfortable, knew exactly where to take us, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and effortless. It never felt rushed or overly “touristy,” just an amazing day on the water enjoying the Amalfi Coast.
Couldn’t recommend Blue Star Boat Tours or Gianfranco more highly. One of the highlights of our trip and easily a 10/10 experience. If you’re looking for a boat day on the Amalfi Coast, book with them and ask for Gianfranco!

Top-knots experience
Our family had an extraordinary day with Franco! We departed from Positano for a full-day tour around Capri, and it was one of the highlights of our trip.
As business owners of a charter company in the Florida Keys, we can say without hesitation that BlueStar and Franco are top-notch. The boat was well maintained, and Franco made the day fun and memorable. He shared his knowledge of the area and allowed us time to enjoy the sea at our own pace ❤️
We highly recommend BlueStar and especially Franco for an unforgettable day on the water!

Excellent!!!
Giamfranco was EXCELLENT!!! We are a family of 6 and booked a private boat tour from Positano. We told Franco that we trusted his judgement and would go wherever he suggested we see. We skipped the excursion inland to Capri and we are sooooo glad we did! Franco showed us caves and the beautiful area of Positano and Capri from the boat! Our 4 boys are ages 18, 20 and twins 24. They adored Franco and loved swimming and jumping off the boat. He took us ashore to an amazing local restaurant where the food for lunch was among the best during our entire trip to Italy! We enjoyed the music he played and the opportunity to learn about the beautiful area from the shore. We ended the day doing some cliff jumping and my crew was in heaven!! Franco was amazing and we are so grateful for him!! What an amazing young man!! Thank you Franco for our best day in Italy!! We loved relaxing and this special day for our family!

Amalfi coast boat tour
Carlo was amazing as our skipper provided everything from towels to drinks and also reserved a table for us at one of our stops at the local restaurant. Also got to swim at some nice local spots and swam in caves too

Our 20th Wedding Anniversary Celebration
We had an unforgettable experience on our private tour of the Amalfi Coast and Capri. Nicola was a local guide that was knowledgeable and very accommodating. On our way back to Positano we had lunch at Maria Grazia which was Nicola’s suggestion and it did not disappoint. Until next time…..Ciao! BethAnne and Colby Bruce

Amazing, Fantastic. Our best tour.
This was the best tour out of all our tours through Italy.
Our own private boat named, O’ Sole Mio with snacks, drinks and snorkeling gear all provided.
Gianfranco our captain and tour guide was so informative and caring.
He took us around the island of Capri telling us about the islands history and taking us to hidden water caves and ancient ruins from the comfort of our beautiful boat. He stopped at several places so that we could swim in that beautiful blue water around the island.
He then took us to a beautiful fishing island, village named Nerano, where we had lunch at an amazing restaurant called, Maria Grazia which first started in 1901 by a grandmother who used to feed the fisherman. It is still run today by the fourth generation of her family.
We then cruised back for another swim stop before we ended our day back at Positano.
Amazing Day.

Capri fun
The caves and going in the water were so much fun. franfranco was the best driver I've ever had. I never usually write reviews but this experience was just so top notch. He knew all the best locations and his kind attitude made this experience last a lifetime in our memories. It is super easy and he makes everything very clear and makes sure we have a good time.
