What to expect
Your guide will steer you through Capri's steep lanes and terraced streets, mixing main sights with neighbourhood spots tourists often miss. Expect to climb—the island's topography demands it—but rewards you with vistas few reach. You'll spend time in the Piazzetta absorbing cafe culture, explore the botanical richness around Augustus's gardens, and get the backstory on how Hollywood and Mediterranean society shaped this place. Pace is flexible; your guide adapts to your interests, whether that's architecture, botany, or simply sitting and watching the light change.
Good to know
Admission fees and chairlift costs are separate. Wear proper shoes—cobblestones and stairs dominate. Lunch isn't included; eat when you reach the Piazzetta or plan ahead. Strollers work on main paths. Ferry to the island itself is your responsibility; several operators run from Naples and Sorrento.
