Five Star Boat Tour
We had a wonderful time on our boat tour to Positano with Josephine - she was very attentive and showed us a wonderful time on our boat tour to Positano - I would highly recommend this tour company, as they were very professional and excellent in communicating with us before - during - and after the boat tour - Five Stars all the way - a must do trip when in Naples or Sorrento. Thank you so much for everything.
Response from the operator: La vostra soddisfazione è la nostra più grande ricompensa. Grazie per le splendide parole e arrivederci alla prossima avventura in mare!

So much fun and a beautiful Amalfi experience
We had a private tour of my family of 8. I dealt with the owner Francesco from 2 months prior to our toyr. He answered all my questions. Asked for a small deposit and was very easy to work with in English and Italian. We had a fun tour of Amalfi and our skipper was prompt and catered to what we wanted to do and how to do it. I highly recommend this company
Response from the operator: È stato un vero piacere avervi come nostri ospiti. Grazie per la fiducia e per questa bellissima recensione!

Nice coast ride but expensive and slow
The captain took us to a few lovely beaches that are only accessible from the water, and a boat trip around the Amalfi coast can't be bad in any case. But there were a few issues: 1. Boat is of a decent size, but has a 40hp engine, and it is slooow. It is slower than ferries that go between coastal towns. In our case, the sea wasn't particularly flat, and the captain was trying to make the trip smoother. However, even when asked to rev up the engine, the boat couldn't go any faster. 2. Fuel + marine fees were the same as initial booking. In no world, 40hp can burn fuel for 400 euros (keeping 100 for marinas) in 4 hours. So next time I would rather go with: 1. Renting a boat without a captain for much less. You can rent a 40hp boat without a license. 2. Spend more, go with a bigger and faster boat if you want a thrill or just a fast(er) ride.

We had a fabulous time...
We had a fabulous time boating around the incredible Amalfi Coast with Roberto as our skipper. Roberto was a great guide, and boat driver!!! The team was flexible and highly communicative ahead of our booking, which we really appreciated. Would recommend!

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Boat Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Capri.
How much does Private Boat Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano cost?
+
Prices start at $724 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Capri 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 Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Capri is not rushed.
Is Private Boat Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 17 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Capri, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Boat Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano?
+
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 Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Boat Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano?
+
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 Capri 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 Capri and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Boat Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano 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 Capri 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 Capri?
+
On Outty we rank every Capri experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small Group Capri Island Boat Ride with Swimming and Limoncello, Kayak tour in Capri between caves and beaches. Photos included., Private Capri Island and Blue Grotto Day Tour from Naples or Sorrento. 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 Capri?
+
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 Capri?
+
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.
What is included in Private Boat Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano?
+

What languages is Private Boat Tour from Sorrento, Capri or Positano offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

+
