For the amount of money...
For the amount of money we paid the blue grotto was closed and the guys weren't really explaining much. We didn't have much time in the city to do much at all and the guys took us to a place with a set menu for €20 a person overall I felt like I could've done this experience on my own without a guide. We paid $450 and we were there for less than three hours and didn't get to really enjoy Capri.

Words can’t describe how amazing Capri is
Capri was so amazing. Words can’t describe how beautiful it is. This was a fantastic tour. The tour guides were delightful and engaging, well versed and were on top of everything. Highly recommend this tour. A+++

I love Capri!!
Vincent “Vincenzo” was so much fun!! A lot of great information and allowed us to make the most of our day with the Grotto and the chair lifts. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know him

Beautiful day trip.
Meeting point was a little confusing but got it figured out. Also the boat ride into the grotto was extra and there was some confusion with keeping track of who paid. Annalise did an excellent job keeping track of everyone and keeping everything organized.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your Capri day trip from Rome! We’re glad to hear that, despite some initial confusion everything was ultimately sorted out. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding. We’re especially happy to know that Annalisa did an excellent job keeping everyone organized throughout the day 😊 Thank you again for travelling with us, and we hope to welcome you on another adventure in the future! Warm regards, Gray Line I Love Rome

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Capri Day Trip from Rome by Bus and Ferry – Multiple Options: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Capri Day Trip from Rome by Bus and Ferry – Multiple Options cost?
+
Prices start at $125 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rome usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Capri Day Trip from Rome by Bus and Ferry – Multiple Options take?
+
Plan for about 14 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 Rome is not rushed.
Is Capri Day Trip from Rome by Bus and Ferry – Multiple Options worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 102 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Capri Day Trip from Rome by Bus and Ferry – Multiple Options?
+
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 Day Trip from Rome by Bus and Ferry – Multiple Options suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 14-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Capri Day Trip from Rome by Bus and Ferry – Multiple Options?
+
Around 36 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 Rome 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 Rome and add a light layer if any part of the 14-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Capri Day Trip from Rome by Bus and Ferry – Multiple Options 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 Rome 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 Rome?
+
Rome runs on skip-the-line access. The Colosseum underground, the Vatican before opening, and the catacombs south of the walls all require a licensed operator, and the price gap between the good ones and the rest is smaller than you would expect. We rank by guide credentials, group size and how reliably the promised access actually materialises. On Outty we rank every Rome experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & Fine Wine 5*, Pasta Making & Wine Tasting with Dinner in Frascati from Rome, Rome: Pizza & Tiramisu or Gelato Class with Flowing Fine Wine 5*. 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 Rome?
+
April, May, September and October. August is hot and half the city is shut. 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 Rome?
+
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.
