Far From a Relaxing Ride
If you are looking for a nice, relaxing boat ride to Capri, this is not it. Although our guide, Claudia, was very sweet and friendly, the boat ride itself was very fast moving through very choppy waters. It was very difficult to hear our guide explain things on the tour when the boat is traveling fast and crashing into waves.

Do not book this tour
If you book this tour be aware from the start that you can get scammed into buying drinks whilst waiting at the port ready to board. This happened to a number of groups on our tour. A person from the bar II Paguro came over and offereed us any drinjk we liked, and as the trip mentioned drinks were included we through this was it! He then came back and said I have a special surprise for you on the boat. Would you like a bottle of Prosecco or Wine? We said wine again assuming this was part of our tour. He then came back as we were about to leave with his eftopos machune an said 53 euro and would we like to leave a tip!!!! As we were boarding, my husband just paid with NO tip but it made the trip sour right from the start. I told our captain Antonio on the boat immediately and he said he's heard of that before and that's not right and he'll get us refunded. Unfortunately when we finished the trip he advised htat he had been told by hius boss there was nothing they can do!! This response is not good enough! We were tricked and the boat company obviously knew this practice occurs and did nothing to advise us to be aware! Antonio was a great guide and that is the only thing that was good. The three caves he showed us were great and it was good to get so close. The boat as far too small which made the trip rougher than it should have been and we were all drenched both ways of the trip! If you're going to get wet you need to put this in the marketing so peole come prepared or at least provide waterproof protection. This did not happen. Once we left Capri and made our way down to the jetty to board a lady from our group fell and face-planted on a steel metal grate pier. There was a step, but with no lighting to board she missed it. She cut her hand and leg badly and was bleeding. The boat was not tied up for us to board and 3 of us were trying to hold the boat as Antonio was trying to help the lady. This is so unsafe and anyone of us could have fallen especially with no lighting. Finally there were no safety instructions given and no one had on a life jacket or was offered one. Antonio did what he could but when youre driving a small boat in the dark its limiting. We arrived back completely wet and cold. This was by far the worst experience of our 6 week holiday. I reported this to the booking company who advised the tour operator would be in contact. This was a month ago now and we still have not heard back. I would not recommend this tour to anyone!!

A memorable night
My husband and I had so much fun on our trip. The boat captain and staff were fun, nice, and took us to some beautiful spots. Going to Capri at sunset was magical

Fun evening tour, great way to visit Capri
Get away from the day crowd & enjoy the views of Capri from the water. The tour starts with hotel pickup if you arranged that & then leaves from the docks. The tour size is small, capped at 12 which makes it easy to get to know other passengers. The day was beautiful & the seas fairly calm. Our driven arranged for several picture opportunities & we enjoyed some swim time off the coast. There is about 3 hours to spend in the central Capri square and find dinner. Tip: plan to get wet on the boat both coming & going & dress for that reality. There are changing areas on the boat to allow you to change into more formal attire for time on Capri, most people dress up for dinner, so bring a change of clothes.
Response from the operator: Dear 247wendyn, Thank you for sharing your positive experience with us! It’s great to know that our tour has fully satisfied you. Your feedback encourages us to continue offering the highest level of quality and service. Best regards Fabiana Reservations Dept & Customer Care

Beautiful trip, easy crossing and great guides on board.
Got picked up at hotel at 3.30pm, car journey to port picking up 2 other couples along the way. Waited 10 mins at the port for our boat,our guide was the really nice and beautiful Elle and Captain Antonio. She was brilliant giving us drinks and snacks on board. The trip out we stopped at a waterfall and then a beautiful tour around the island. Stopped at all the major points of interest then anchored for us to swim in the ocean for a while which was perfect. Back on board to prosecco,before moving on to docking at the main port. We enjoyed over 3 hours on the island. We were able to get changed on board and use the toilet before disembarking. The island was beautiful so many shops expensive clothing and eateries. Watched the sunset and we were picked up again at 10pm. Going back to Sorrento beautiful clear skies over head, glass of lemon cello as we docked. Overall it was perfect. Car waiting at the Dock to bring us back to hotel. In the door for 11pm.
Response from the operator: Dear m00rekevin, Thank you for your 5-star review and for sharing your experience! We are over the moon knowing that we have achieved the goal for you. Your kind words feed our passion for what we do! Best regards Fabiana Reservations Dept & Customer Care

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Capri Sunset Escape – Exclusive Evening Boat Tour from Sorrento: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Capri Sunset Escape – Exclusive Evening Boat Tour from Sorrento cost?
+
Prices start at $115 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 Sunset Escape – Exclusive Evening 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 Sunset Escape – Exclusive Evening Boat Tour from Sorrento worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 18 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 Sunset Escape – Exclusive Evening 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 Sunset Escape – Exclusive Evening 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 Sunset Escape – Exclusive Evening Boat Tour from Sorrento?
+
Around 6 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 Sunset Escape – Exclusive Evening 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 Pizza School with Wine and Limoncello Tasting in a Local Farm, Private Amalfi Coast Day Tour from Sorrento or Naples, Sorrento Farm and Food Experience including Olive Oil, Limoncello, Wine 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.
