Itinerary
This is only a suggested itinerary below with some of the main sights highlighted. As this is a private excursion, you can customize it as you wish. Choose your departure time and departure point: the boat can depart from Sorrento, Positano, or Naples.
Meet your experienced and friendly skipper, who will accompany you during the day. Start the navigation to the island. Upon arriving in Capri, your captain will cruise past breathtaking island views. Visit some of the most famous highlights of the island such as the White Grotto and the Marvellous Grotto.
See the beautiful Green Grotto and enjoy a swim in the incredibly beautiful water just outside it. This is one of the best spots around the island.
If you would like, you can stop to visit the Blue Grotto in Capri, which is famous for its electric blue water inside.
Cruise by the beautiful Marina Piccola on the southern side of the island of Capri.
See the majestic Faraglioni sea stacks, one of the symbols of the island and cruise right through the hole in the middle of the rocks.
A striking example of Italian modern architecture, this deep red hued villa is perched atop a rocky point on the island. The villa is not open to the public, but one of the best angles to see it is from the sea.
At the southwestern tip of Capri you will see this pink and white lighthouse set on a cap jutting out into the sea.
Along the way you can enjoy several stops for swimming and snorkelling, and a relaxing break with snacks, fruits and drinks offered on board. If you want, you can also visit the island by land or decide to have lunch in one of the many delicious restaurants on the coast accessible only by sea. The skipper will suggest you the best one!
Once back on board, relax en route to the departure point (Sorrento, Positano or Naples) sipping some Prosecco sparkling wine offered by your skipper.

Fantastic boat tour far better than mass tour
Excellent custom day tour designed to beat the crowds and weather. It started when their driver picked us up early at our vrbo in a nice air conditioned van and delivered us right at the dock. Our speed boat was 2 months old providing shade and a quick smooth ride to Capri. Upon boarding we were served a glass of prosecco and a music playlist that set the vibe for our day. Francesco and Alex took us around the island and provided history and details. They were the best! They knew where to go and when to avoid crowds and rough water. They maneuvered the large boat into a cave/grotto with no more than 2 feet space on all sides, front, back, and above. It was like cave scuba diving without getting wet. They also knew the best spots to swim with water clarity down 30 feet. Their insight and advice for our free time on island was accurate and very helpful. They provided food and beverages, making the whole day one of the best ever in our travels. After watching the crowds getting herded around from the large ferry boats, our custom 8 person tour in a fancy boat was well worth the small extra expense.

Best boat tour in Sorrento!
My husband and I celebrated our 3 year wedding anniversary by doing the Sorrento coast,capri and blue grotto boat tour-prime experience. I can’t recommend this boat tour enough. They picked us up from our hotel and took us to the boat! We got to see the Amalfi coast and the island of Capri from the boat which gives you a different view of the coast that you won’t get on land. We got to experience the blue grotto which is a very unique thing to see. I wouldn’t recommend skipping it if you haven’t ever seen anything like it. Some people say it is overrated/too long of a wait but I didn’t mind the wait because we were given lots of limonchello, snacks and time to relax on the boat. They then gave us time to explore the island of Capri. They explained before we got there that transportation in Capri could be difficult and expensive but Federico took us right to a bus station, got us the correct tickets and made sure we were on the right bus for where we wanted to go. Transportation was easy and inexpensive thanks to Federico! After visiting Capri they let us out of the boat to take a swim which was one of my favorite parts. Raphael and Federico were the two men that did our tour and we were definitely blessed with the best two people in the whole company. I can’t say enough good things about about these gentleman. Raphael was the captain and allowed each of us to take a turn in the captains seat. Federico was a young man who was helping Raphael with the tour and he as was awesome! His main focus was to make sure we were having fun and he nailed it. He made sure we had snacks and drinks throughout the whole tour. He took lots of pictures for everyone in the group. When he found out it was my husband and I’s anniversary he popped some champagne and took us to lovers rock and this other small cove with a heart shape in the rocks! It was the perfect way to celebrate our anniversary. We will never forget this anniversary and we have You know! Sorrento to thank for that.
