    Fun day on the sea

    The day was a lot of fun and Francesco was a great driver and host. We were lucky to get straight into the Blue Grotto with no wait line and the water temperature was still good for swimming. I would highly recommend Cassiopea Boats.

    Trip from Positano to Capri

    This was an amazing trip! There was plenty of water and soft drinks, and we celebrated the day with a toast of Prosecco! Captain Francesco is an able captain, a good guide, and we enjoyed him immensely. The boat was large, with plenty of room for us and the ten other guests. We really enjoyed getting to know everyone. We had two nice opportunities to swim and enjoy the water. If you’re expecting to see fish, like one might see in Caribbean, you will be disappointed. The water was cool and clear! Just being on the water and seeing the sites was a thrill, and Capri was fun too. We had booked another Capri tour for the same day, but that charter operator contacted us one day prior and wanted to change our tour date! We weren’t comfortable with this change, got a refund, and rebooked this tour with Cassiopea Boat Excursions. NOTE: There are different tour companies and some are better than others. We’re actually glad the other operator cancelled because this trip turned out to be great fun. Only one complaint: the onboard toilet had no seat, which inconvenienced the ladies on board. Overall, we highly recommend this tour and this tour company,

    Perfect tour to Capri!

    Hello, we had an Amazing tour. We met near the beach in Positano at 7:45am. at a bright orange tent Cassiopea Positano. Roberto greeted everyone when we checked in. He was very nice and informative. Our boat arrived at 8:00am and we had 10 people on the tour. Our skipper was Francesco. He was wonderful during the whole trip. We enjoyed the pace of the tour, not too fast, not too slow. We admired beautiful sights along the way & Francesco pointed out specific points of interest. We circled Capri island, saw the Green, White & Blue Grotto. The Blue Grotto was closed. The water was too high & no boats were able to enter. We were fine with not actually going inside the blue grotto.. We enjoyed the stunning rock formations as we entered the Marina in Capri. Please be aware there are two Marinas, we were at the smaller marina. We had three hours to visit Capri. There are small buses & taxis at the top of the road & a quick drive to the Center of Capri. We enjoyed a delicious lunch & did some shopping & walked the colorful streets. Then took a taxi back to the marina, met up with our group on time & Francesco met us with the boat. We then headed to a swimming area & enjoyed a swim in the crystal blue water. We had float noodles to relax in the water too. When everyone was ready, we got back in the boat, Francesco popped a bottle of champagne & we celebrated our day together. We headed back to Positano and arrived by 4:15pm. It was a Perfect Day!!

    Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Full-Day Boat Tour from Positano: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Positano.

    How much does Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Full-Day Boat Tour from Positano cost?

    +

    Prices start at €150 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Positano usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Full-Day Boat Tour from Positano take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 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 Positano is not rushed.

    Is Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Full-Day Boat Tour from Positano worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 184 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Positano, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Full-Day Boat Tour from Positano?

    +

    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 & Blue Grotto Small Group Full-Day Boat Tour from Positano suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Full-Day Boat Tour from Positano?

    +

    Around 64 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 Positano 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 Positano and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Full-Day Boat Tour from Positano 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 Positano 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 Positano?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Positano experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cooking class with Pasta, mozzarella and Tiramisu with wine, From Sorrento: Positano & Amalfi Coast Boat Tour with Pick Up, Capri and Blue Grotto Semi Private Boat Day Trip from Sorrento. 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 Positano?

    +

    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 Positano?

    +

    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.
