What to expect

Your chauffeur collects you from Rome in a private car and drives to Naples, where you board a hydrofoil to Capri. Upon arrival, your guide directs you to Augustus' Gardens first—a terraced sanctuary with sweeping sea views. Next, the chairlift carries you up Monte Solaro; the ascent reveals the island's twin towns (Capri and Anacapri) and surrounding seascape. Later, a wooden rowboat takes you into the Blue Grotto's famous cavern, where reflected light bathes the water in ethereal blue. You'll also see the Faraglioni peaks from the water. The return hydrofoil departs in late afternoon, with your driver waiting in Naples to drive you back to Rome.
