Beautiful
This was well worth the money. Fantastic small boat, time for a couple of swim stops as well as seeing the island. The captain was lovely and friendly and it was a great end to our day on Capri - also a lovely way to cool down!

Beautiful Experience with One Small Suggestion
This private boat tour in Capri was absolutely worth it! It was the perfect way to escape the crowds, and the scenery was breathtaking. Mr. Constanzo was very friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain the history and highlights of the island throughout the tour (in Italian). He kindly let us start our tour 15 minutes early and later offered us the option to extend our trip by 30 minutes for an additional 50€, which we happily accepted. The only suggestion I have is that it would have been helpful if the extension option had been mentioned earlier in the tour. We would have chosen to spend more time swimming in the caves instead of using the extra 30 minutes swimming in a fairly average area near the end of the route, surrounded by anchored boats. One tip for future visitors: although tipping is not common in most parts of Europe, the captain did ask for a tip at the end of the tour. So, it’s a good idea to bring some cash with you to avoid having to find an ATM and pay withdrawal fees. The listing should also mention that tipping is going to be asked or required because we didn’t know that.

Great family day on the...
Great family day on the water! Enjoyed very much. Would definitely recommend Mr Costanzo to anyone!!

Absolutely Must!
Fantastic private boat ride around the whole island! Turn out to be the last excursion of our vacation, but also one of the best we went on. The captain was great and informative of what we were seeing. Drinking Prosecco on a private tour is the way to go!

Private Island of Capri by Boat: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Capri.
How much does Private Island of Capri by Boat cost?
+
Prices start at $69 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 Island of Capri by Boat 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 Island of Capri by Boat worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 311 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 Island of Capri by Boat?
+
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 Island of Capri by Boat 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 Island of Capri by Boat?
+
Around 109 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 Island of Capri by Boat 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.
