About this tour
Spend eight hours on Capri via fast hydrofoil from Naples, exploring the island's dual character. Start in Anacapri with its designer boutiques and artisan shops, then ride the chairlift up Mount Solaro for sweeping views across the Tyrrhenian Sea. After lunch, descend to Capri town to walk through the Gardens of Augustus and trace the dramatic cliffside path of Via Krupp. A local guide joins you throughout, revealing the island's layered history and present-day appeal. Return to Naples by evening hydrofoil.

What to expect
Your guide meets you at Naples port and boards the hydrofoil with you—a 45-minute crossing with views of the coastline. Once in Anacapri, you'll have time to browse the shopping streets at your own pace before deciding on the chairlift (optional, but worth it for the summit perspective). The descent into Capri town involves a minibus ride and several walking sections through gardens and narrow lanes. Lunch is a low-key affair, leaving you energy for the afternoon exploration. The return journey retraces the hydrofoil route; expect a fairly full day on your feet but manageable for most fitness levels.
Good to know
The Blue Grotto entrance fee (roughly £25) is separate and cash-only at the site. Same-day or overnight bookings may shift to the next available date if hydrofoil capacity is full. Bring comfortable walking shoes, sun protection, and a light layer for the sea crossing. Strollers are fine for infants; children sit on adults' laps on the boat.
