A fun day out!
This trip was well organised and made even better by Antonio and Giovanni! They were very knowledgeable, fun and welcoming! We didn’t get to see the Blue Grotto as the tide was in but we saw other grottos and even went inside them! We had 4 hours free in Capri. Overall it was a really good day and I would highly recommend this tour

Truly memorable trip to Capri
Looked at a number of excursions operated by various operators but settled on this one. Picked up and dropped off by the friendliest driver, and looked after brilliantly by the boat crew, this was a truly memorable day. The crew manoeuvred the boat so everyone got the perfect picture. Time for swimming before going ashore. Complimentary limoncello and peroni were gratefully received with a sing along on the way home. The crew couldn't have been more friendly or attentive. Would highly recommend.

A day in Capri from Sorrento
Our guide Marco was so accommodating and made sure we did as much as we were able to. The day was rainy off and on and the Blue Grotto was closed but we still managed to see a lot of Capri and swim for as long as we wanted to. The boat ride to and from Capri was absolutely beautiful! Getting lunch was nice as we didn’t have to stop to eat and ending with a Limoncello was perfect.

Captain Peter and crew hand were great. Memorable day, many sight, lots of good music and drink. Made the second part of the day a joy even with not great weather. Highly recommend.

Meh
The tour itself was fine. The organization and delays are why I have my rating. Our poor guide was giving a new boat at the last minute. It wasn’t stocked. The tour company sent horrible information. We were told to be there at 8:30. We arrived at 8:00 to be safe. Not one of the other companies had heard of ours, so no one knew where to send us. Finally after three phones calls by another tour operator, who took pity on us, we found it. Then we sat until 9:40 in the blazing sun. The boat itself was not great. Fine if you didn’t have to use the bathroom. But not clean down below. The guide did his best but it was just OK.

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Capri small group & Blue grotto from Sorrento: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Positano.
How much does Capri small group & Blue grotto from Sorrento cost?
+
Prices start at $168 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 small group & Blue grotto 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 Positano is not rushed.
Is Capri small group & Blue grotto from Sorrento worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 14 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 small group & Blue grotto 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 small group & Blue grotto 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 small group & Blue grotto from Sorrento?
+
Around 5 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Capri small group & Blue grotto 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 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, Ravioli & Tagliatelle Cooking Class at a Local's Home in Positano, Amalfi Coast & Positano: Boat Tour with Snorkeling & Drinks. 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.
