About this tour
Catch the fast train from Rome to Naples, then island-hop to Capri for a full day of coastal exploration. Your guide meets you in Naples and shepherds you onto a shared jetfoil to the island. Once there, you'll board a traditional wooden boat for three hours cruising Capri's sea caves and rock formations, with a swim stop at the Faraglioni. Afterwards, a private car whisks you up to Mount Solaro's summit via chairlift, then down to the Piazzetta for browsing and lunch on your own before the return journey.

What to expect
Your day starts early with a train ride south. A guide collects you at Naples station and drives you to the jetfoil terminal. The shared boat to Capri takes roughly 50 minutes. The private wooden boat tour occupies your mid-morning and early afternoon, with the guide pointing out geological features whilst you circle sea caves and swim among limestone stacks. Expect boat motion and strong sun exposure. The chairlift ascent to Mount Solaro takes about 10 minutes each way; the views extend across the Tyrrhenian Sea. You'll have roughly two hours free on the Piazzetta before returning to Naples by evening train.
Good to know
Moderate fitness required for chairlift boarding and general walking. Bring swimwear, towel, and high SPF sunscreen. Blue Grotto access depends on sea conditions; rough weather may force cancellation. Infant car seats available upon request. Lunch and drinks are your responsibility and can be pricey on the island.
