Great Capri tour
Tour was informative and fun. Salvatore was a great tour guide and his passion for the island is evident. He even gave us a great suggestion for lunch afterwards.

I did this boat tour...
I did this boat tour yesterday and it was absolutely amazing! My sister did this tour a few years ago and said we HAD to do it while we were in Capri, and she was so right! Having a private tour with just my boyfriend and I made it feel so special. We had the best guide who was incredibly knowledgeable and extremely accommodating. We learned so much about Capri and loved getting to see the entire island from the water, with multiple stops to swim along the way. Truly one of the highlights of our trip! 🤍🇮🇹🌊

Great boat day!
We had a great time. Was very relaxing and our guide was great. Showed everything there was to see around the island of Capri & stopped three diffrent spots to swim. Then a few different spots for scenery.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a relaxing and enjoyable time exploring Capri. It’s wonderful to know that you enjoyed the swimming stops, the beautiful scenery, and that your guide made the experience even more special. We hope to welcome you back again soon

Best Day with Stefano!
We had the best time with WeCapri! Stefano was so great, from giving us some history of the beautiful island, swim stops, and he is the best photographer! My husband and I had the best time. I would highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 💙 We’re delighted to hear that you and your husband had such a fantastic time with us. Stefano will be thrilled to know you enjoyed his stories about Capri, the swim stops, and, of course, his photography skills! It was a pleasure having you on board, and we truly appreciate your recommendation. We hope to see you both again for another unforgettable day around Capri

Why this scores 86
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Capri Boat Tour: Blue Grotto, Faraglioni, & Swim Stops: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Capri.
How much does Private Capri Boat Tour: Blue Grotto, Faraglioni, & Swim Stops cost?
+
Prices start at $337 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 Capri Boat Tour: Blue Grotto, Faraglioni, & Swim Stops take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Capri Boat Tour: Blue Grotto, Faraglioni, & Swim Stops worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 479 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 Capri Boat Tour: Blue Grotto, Faraglioni, & Swim Stops?
+
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 Capri Boat Tour: Blue Grotto, Faraglioni, & Swim Stops suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Capri Boat Tour: Blue Grotto, Faraglioni, & Swim Stops?
+
Around 168 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Capri Boat Tour: Blue Grotto, Faraglioni, & Swim Stops 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 Boat Tour Local Gems and Prosecco Best Seller. 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.
