Capri
16 adults. Private tour from Sorrento to Capri. Tour guide was Georgio. He was amazing. Raphael tours bad at least 4 or 5 different tours that day in Capri. The tour guides all helped and looked out for each other throughout the day. A really well oiled machine. A shout out to Marcella and Luigi - 2 other guides from Raphael. All amazing. Highly recommend this company and these guides for a great all day tour. Great balance of guiding and providing some free time.

Vincenzo Rocks!
This was one of our favorite tours of the trip. Vincenzo was the best - he was able to take us up the chair lift and through the local side of the island early before the crowds came in. He was also able to recommend the best lunch spot where we had local cuisine that ended up being our favorite spot of the trip. And importantly he got us back to our cruise ship in perfect timing. This tour is a must do and consider yourself lucky if you get Vincenzo to lead the way!

Beautiful Capri with Vincenzo
We had a fantastic tour of Capri with our guide, Vincenzo! He really tailored our tour for us. We had time constraints due to our cruise ship only being in port for a certain amount of hours. We also had grandparents with us who are not super mobile. Vincenzo went out of his way to make it a wonderful tour for everyone. We had so much fun! Highly recommend this tour!

Great experience! We met...
Great experience! We met with Stephanie for this tour and she was very knowledgeable and accommodating during the tour. We happened to visit during a storm but she was able to find alternative activities on the island. Would recommend!

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Capri and Blue Grotto Private Tour from Naples or Sorrento: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Naples.
How much does Capri and Blue Grotto Private Tour from Naples or Sorrento cost?
+
Prices start at $230 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Naples usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Capri and Blue Grotto Private Tour from Naples or Sorrento take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Naples is not rushed.
Is Capri and Blue Grotto Private Tour from Naples or Sorrento worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Naples, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Capri and Blue Grotto Private Tour from Naples or Sorrento?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Capri and Blue Grotto Private Tour from Naples or Sorrento suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Capri and Blue Grotto Private Tour from Naples or Sorrento?
+
Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Naples can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Naples and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Capri and Blue Grotto Private Tour from Naples or Sorrento start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Naples within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Naples?
+
On Outty we rank every Naples experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full Day Private Amalfi Coast Tour from Sorrento/Naples/Salerno, Caserta Royal Palace & Gardens Small Group Tour with Shuttle, Naples Pizza and Tiramisu Cooking Class. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Naples?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Naples?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
