Gracious hospitality combined with excellent service and a beautiful vessel - a highlight of our trip to Sorrento!
From the first contact I made with this company to the last detail, the experience was excellent. I had a million questions and Corinna was so patient and thorough in answering all of them. Communication was excellent and every detail was attended to including the name of the driver picking us up from our hotel to Corinna meeting us at the crowded dock with a sign so we wouldn't have any trouble finding the yacht. Our onboard experience continued the incredible service - Leonardo and Marco were just awesome, making sure we got to see and do what we wanted and telling us about the area and its history, adding an additional and appreciated layer to our experience. The yacht was clean, bathroom spotless and plenty of room for our party to find sun or shade as desired. The only thing not perfect was the weather which got cloudy and drizzled toward the later afternoon but even that didn't put a damper on our experience We are so grateful!!
Response from the operator: Dear Courtney, We are deeply grateful for this wonderful and thorough review of your experience with us. Hearing that every single aspect of your journey—from the very first inquiry to the last detail on the water—was excellent is the ultimate compliment for our entire team. Corinna always strives to provide flawless peace of mind before departure, ensuring that logistics like hotel pickups and meeting at the busy dock are completely stress-free. Knowing her support made such a difference means the world to us. It is equally rewarding to hear that the crew delivered such attentive and knowledgeable service on board, ensuring your comfort and sharing the history of our beautiful coastline, regardless of the afternoon weather. Thank you for choosing SHC Sorrento Holiday Charter and for sharing your journey with the TripAdvisor community. It was an absolute privilege to have you as our guests, and we hope to welcome you on board again for another memorable cruise. Sincerely, The SHC Sorrento Holiday Charter Team

Amalfi Boat Ride
We have used Roberto and the SHC company to schedule two boat rides down the Amalfi Coast two years in a row. Roberto is TREMENDOUS!! I would HIGHLY recommend anyone to do it. Totally worth the price. Roberto does a great job in pointing things out along the coast and the boat was A+. He was right on time and it was easy to find him and board the boat. Don't even consider anyone else.....go with Roberto and SHC. Jerry from Philadelphia
Response from the operator: Thank you! Looking forward to seeing you again!

Wonderful day trip.
We had a private tour on Shamal 40’ boat from Sorrento to Positano, had a lunch break and sailed to Capri and back to Sorrento. During the trip our Captain Roberto and his assistant Enrico could not do enough for us. From showing us around the islands, offering all sorts if refreshments, fruits, snacks, taking our pictures for us while we were snorkeling. Roberto booked us a fantastic restaurant called Ristorante Pappone which was one of the best restaurants we visited while on holiday. We had such a great time thanks to Roberto and Enrico, i can honestly say that boat trip was a highlight of our holiday. They simply could not do enough for us. Loved every minute of it. They also kindly offered a pick up and a drop off to the hotel we stayed at. We highly recommend Sorrento Holiday Yacht Charter.

Private Cruise to Capri and Amalfi coast from Sorrento or Capri - yacht 40': questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Capri.
How much does Private Cruise to Capri and Amalfi coast from Sorrento or Capri - yacht 40' cost?
+

How long does Private Cruise to Capri and Amalfi coast from Sorrento or Capri - yacht 40' 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 Capri is not rushed.
Is Private Cruise to Capri and Amalfi coast from Sorrento or Capri - yacht 40' worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 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 Cruise to Capri and Amalfi coast from Sorrento or Capri - yacht 40'?
+

Is Private Cruise to Capri and Amalfi coast from Sorrento or Capri - yacht 40' 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 Private Cruise to Capri and Amalfi coast from Sorrento or Capri - yacht 40'?
+
Around 4 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Cruise to Capri and Amalfi coast from Sorrento or Capri - yacht 40' 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.

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.
