Capri Private Boat Tour from Sorrento, Positano or Naples - Gozzo F.lli Aprea 32

Alex and Federico made it wonderful and fun. Alex gave us all the tip so we wont go home ripped off in Capri if you arent careful! He also made sure we maximized our time more than lining up in the blue grotto! We had the time to swim, shop relax take nice photos and had the best time in this tour!

Great day out. Nice boat in a small group. Knowledgeable and friendly skipper. I purposely booked this trip as it did not include the blue grotto as I had read that the wait times to get into the grotto can be up to a couple of hours. We made other stops around the island instead and allowed for more time to chill on Capri. Drinks included was a nice touch.

The trip was amazing. The sea that day was a bit rough so we could not see everything but the boat was great and the captain and his help were quite helpful. I was disappointed from the organization and logistics of the trip. 1. Once we arrived at Piazza Garibaldi, we could not find who our driver was because there were no signs or directions. There were too many tours and it was a mess. The driver should wait for the people with a sign (or code/name) at the designated location. 2. Good side: The driver of the bus was really friendly and helpful. 3. Once arrived in the port of Sorrento to take the boat, we had to wait until every passenger (even those who were not on our boat) checked in. This caused some distress as it was too warm and we had no idea for how long we had to wait. 4. Good side: Sorrento bay was gorgeous, so it made up for the wait. 5. Once back, the wait was even longer. There was a mess with assigning groups to buses. This can be very easily solved: Again the driver should hold a card with a code/name etc. Anyways we had a fantastic time and Capri is gorgeous.

loved Capri...beautiful island and amazing waters/grottos to swim....boat comfortable however 4 hours on your own was not necessary...I would have booked a half day tour instead

Picked up right on time from a hotel in Naples 8:05 and driven to Sorrento, not sure whether that is made clear in the description of the tour but the boat leaves from Sorrento not Naples, a welcomed surprise as the town is gorgeous! We were dropped off and accompanied down in a lift to the shoreline. You pay a city tax to Capri of 2.50 each when picking up your ticket. We were told to wait outside at 10:15 for our boat number to be called. Our boat ended up being the last to leave at around 11, however it was the biggest boat they had and the views from the deck were breathtaking. From Sorrento to Capri the trip was 3 hours and our skipper stopped in various places telling us what the towns were called and pulling up to different sites such as a waterfall and a cave where you could see swimmers in. When reaching Capri we were shown the white grotto and another allowing for some amazing photos. We then anchored and could swim in the sea for quite a while, however no snorkelling equipment was provided like advertised. As we carried on the boat trip around the island we came to the blue grotto, unfortunately because of the tide being high the entrance was closed. Nevertheless the boat trip to Capri was such a wonderful experience. As we left later than the other boats we reached the island at 2 and were picked up at 6:30. We had lunch, all restaurants being expensive and most charging 5 Euros cover charge to sit, an unexpected additional payment. We remained close to the harbour and sat along the beach. A most fanatasric experience so far. Unfortunately, the seas on the way back were very rough not expected, usually always calm according to the skipper. Some passengers felt ill and were distressed. However the skipper provided food and drink and remained calm as he was not phased and didnt see any serious risk of danger, this being a comfort. When the boat moved slower the rocking was quite bad, to stop this the boat sped up but that meant more spray coming aboard as the boat hit the waves entirely preferable over the horrible rocking at times. The boy trip back to Sorrento took around 40 minutes and when we reached the marina we were accompanied back to our bus and driven back to Naples. Overall, the experience was unforgettable and breathtaking! Just unfortunate that we hit rough seas on the way back which was very unusual and doesnt normally happen. I would definitely reccomend!!

This trip was a blast. Great guide, great boat trip (kinda rough waters, may want to bring some dramamine if you get motion sick). I would have loved to stay on the island longer, but I'm ok knowing that I can come back and see it all one day in the future.

Trip was amazing. Captain Francesco was great. The only negative was the meeting point. Our hotel was in walking distance which we didn’t know and were told we had to meet at a certain spot that was the opposite direction. We had to take a taxi which took 20 minutes to get to the pick up location and about a half hour from there to the dock. My paper work told the location for pick up or that we could request a pick up at our hotel. I was told they could not pick up at our hotel which does not make sense because we were so close to the boat dock. So we wasted an hour and taxi cost of $20. We could have walked (25 minute walk) there and did walk back afterwards as the taxi provided would not go by our hotel. I would have rated this a 5. Other than that, being on the boat with our fanatic captain made up for the craziness. Thank you Francesco!
