Amazing day with an amazing skipper
An amazing day on a boat with a fantastic skipper! The boat was perfect size for our family of four and Giuseppe was engaging, knowledgeable, took us to great locations and ensured that we were comfortable and had everything we needed on the boat and also when we jumped off for lunch. Booking and follow up communication was on point, even accommodating a late change on our pick up location. I couldn’t recommended this more highly if you’re looking to see the Amalfi coast without the hassle.

2 private boat days with skipper GianLuigi
Our tour guide GianLuigi was the best skipper. We ended up booking 2 excursions with him because we had so much fun the first time. A private boat tour is a MUST when visiting Sorrento, Capri, and Almafi coast. Wish we had more time but we’ll definitely be back. Ask for skipper GianLuigi the best skipper in all of Italy. 🇮🇹 ciao
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your amazing review! We are truly honored that you chose to book a second excursion with us after enjoying the first one so much. Your kind words about GianLuigi mean a lot, and we’ll be sure to share them with him! We’re delighted that your private boat experiences around Sorrento, Capri, and the Amalfi Coast created such wonderful memories. We look forward to welcoming you back for more unforgettable adventures on the sea. Grazie and ciao! 🇮🇹⚓ Sorrento Rent Boats

Amazing experience
Our private boat tour was amazing. Breathtaking views of poistano and amalfi Gianluigi and Michelle were very patient, polite, explained everything well. They are very friendly and took great photos of us. Amazing people. Would love to see them again. The boat was well maintained. 5/5 would definitely recommend their agency for exploring Sorrento and other islands.
Response from the operator: "Thank you so much for your wonderful words! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that your private boat tour was a highlight of your trip.

Boat trip
Brilliant day highly recommend Gianlugi and Giuseppe was great all day, cannot fault them at all, they recommended a great restaurant with fantastic food and views
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had such a brilliant day and that Gianluigi and Giuseppe made it even more special. They’ll be delighted to know their service and recommendation were appreciated. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another fantastic experience!
via Tripadvisor
We had a great full-day Amalfi Coast boat trip with skipper Giuseppe. He was an excellent, safe driver and took us to lots of beautiful spots along the coast where we could either swim or get and explore the towns/eat lunch. He was also very responsive on WhatsApp when we wanted to be picked up from each location. Overall a great day!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so glad you had a great day with Giuseppe — he’s truly the best at what he does. Hope to see you again soon!

Why this scores 53
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Boat Excursion with Skipper on the Amalfi Coast: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Naples.
How much does Private Boat Excursion with Skipper on the Amalfi Coast cost?
+
Prices start at $500 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Naples usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Boat Excursion with Skipper on the Amalfi Coast 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 Naples is not rushed.
Is Private Boat Excursion with Skipper on the Amalfi Coast worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 15 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Naples, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Boat Excursion with Skipper on the Amalfi Coast?
+
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 Private Boat Excursion with Skipper on the Amalfi Coast 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 Private Boat Excursion with Skipper on the Amalfi Coast?
+
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 Naples 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 Naples and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Boat Excursion with Skipper on the Amalfi Coast 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 Naples 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 Naples?
+
On Outty we rank every Naples experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full Day Private Amalfi Coast Tour from Sorrento/Naples/Salerno, Caserta Royal Palace & Gardens Small Group Tour with Shuttle, Naples Pizza and Tiramisu Cooking Class. 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 Naples?
+
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 Naples?
+
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.
