What you'll see and do
White Grotta
During the tour of the island by boat you will see the marvelous White Grotto which extends for 30 meters and takes its name from the color of its rocks: an extraordinary pure white. Inside, the waters form two small lakes communicating through an artificial channel carved into the rock. In Roman times it is said to have been used as a shelter for boats, but if you look carefully you will notice that the white walls show some signs of the passage of man: in the seventeenth century the population took refuge in this cave to hide from pirate attacks!

Grotta Verde
During the boat tour of the island you will see the marvelous Green Grotto which owes its name to the color of its waters. The light penetrates through the entrance, reflecting on the seabed and paints the waves of the sea an emerald green. This inlet was used by Turkish corsairs as an outpost to ambush and plunder passing boats. There are two openings: the western one located 4 meters below sea level and the eastern one located on the surface. The opening of the Green Grotto in Capri is 7 meters high. You can swim in if the sea is calm! Inside, the walls are irregular and covered with sedimentary rocks, the dolomites, the oldest on Capri. The green of the water can vary in intensity according to the weather conditions and the hours of the day. The time is calculated also considering the time needed to reach the destination

Capri Boat Tide with Mattia
Our boat captain Mattia was wonderful. He was attentive, safe and set a positive tone w the day. He showed us all the interesting sights around the coastline of the entire Island of Capri. He was there with cold drinks, wiping down the seats when wet, made us feel like royalty. Highly recommend him, he made our day special and memorable. Thanks Mattia!!!

Capri private boat tour from Sorrento: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Capri private boat tour from Sorrento cost?
+
Prices start at $836 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sorrento usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Capri private boat tour from Sorrento take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Sorrento is not rushed.
Is Capri private boat tour from Sorrento worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 55 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Capri private boat tour from 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 private boat tour from Sorrento suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Capri private boat tour from Sorrento?
+
Around 19 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 Sorrento 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 Sorrento and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Capri private boat tour from 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 Sorrento 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 Sorrento?
+
On Outty we rank every Sorrento experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sorrento Farm and Food Experience including Olive Oil, Limoncello, Wine tasting, Pizza School with Wine and Limoncello Tasting in a Local Farm, Authentic Farm Tour with Pizza, Cheese, Wine & Limoncello Tasting. 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 Sorrento?
+
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 Sorrento?
+
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.
