Amazing Private Boat Tour of Capri, Positano, and Grottos.
I rented a private boat charter through Charter System Sorrento that picked us up in Sorrento and tooks us around to see Positano, Capri, and the Grottos. Our skipper provided drinks and snacks while on the boat, set up a nice lunch on the island of Capri, took us swimming, and made the whole experience amazing. Thanks to the whole team at Charter Systems: Antonello, Ester and our skipper Carlo for making the day one we will never forget. I highly recommend using them.

Beat day of our holiday
My wife and I just had the best day of our holiday. From the minute we got picked up to the minute we got back our hosts Anselmo (captain) and Giuseppe took care of us all day.
We were offered drinks and fruit all day and the boys explained every part of our trip in perfect English. The communication at every stop was very well explained and we did not have to wait more than a few minutes to be picked up at the isle of capri. They even gave us some Italian cooking tips lol.
The boat was in exceptional condition and very well looked after.
I would recommend this day to anyone thinking of a day to the Isle of Capri or anywhere on the amalfi coast.

Must Do!
Our experience with Charter System Sorrento was amazing! From start to finish. I had many questions prior to our tour day and the staff helped with everything and was extremely easy to deal with. Andrea(our Captain) was so friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating and flexible. The tour itself was curated to exactly what we wanted which was a relaxing time with great views of the coast and a few pit stops to cool off and swim. They arranged a transfer to and from the port and made a reservation on at a fantastic restaurant on Capri for us! Highly recommend!
