Angela was a great guide...
Angela was a great guide and made sure we were able to do everything that we wanted while on the island of Capri. The chair lift was amazing with the views down to the bays and towns. The blue grotto was well worth the wait and an amazing experience to check off.

Fabulous tour!!
Although we were disappointed that the Blue Grotto was closed the day of our tour, the boat tour around the island more than made up for it. Our guide Marcella was fabulous. Everything was well organized even though we had to change plans at the last minute with the closing of the Blue Grotto. We made some wonderful new friends on the tour. Overall we enjoyed the experience and would recommend this tours to others.

Beautiful!
Capri and Anacapri were amazing! Would love to actually stay there in the future. The chairlift in Anacapri was so worth it and was easy enough to hold my child in my lap for it. Reminder that the arm for the chair can be opened easily so if you have a squirmy toddler maybe don’t? Though it’s a smooth and slow ride. This is also a separate ticket once you’re actually in Anacapri. We unfortunately didn’t get to see the blue grotto because of water conditions but instead did a boat ride around the entirety of the island which was actually a great secondary option. This vantage point was truly beautiful! They do show you the opening for the blue grotto which 1000% is super tiny. Smaller than pictures even make it look. Would’ve been cool to do though if weather permitted.

Blue Grotto
Our guide Teresa or Terry was wonderful. We were able to get in to the Blue Grotto. So awesome! Loved Capri and Anacapri.
via Viator
Thanki you Marcella!
We had the most amazing day in Capri with Marcella—by far the best guide we’ve met on our trip to Italy! Capri was absolutely stunning, with warm, sunny weather even in November. We were lucky enough to visit the Blue Grotto without any crowds, making it an even more magical experience. I can’t recommend this tour and Marcella highly enough!

From Sorrento: Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does From Sorrento: Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $189 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 From Sorrento: Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Tour 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 Sorrento is not rushed.
Is From Sorrento: Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 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 From Sorrento: Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Tour?
+
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 From Sorrento: Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Tour 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 From Sorrento: Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Tour?
+
Around 3 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does From Sorrento: Capri & Blue Grotto Small Group Tour start and how do I get there?

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.
