About this tour

Spend a full day exploring Capri's most celebrated corners with a private guide steering the itinerary. Ferry from Sorrento to Marina Grande, then slip into the Blue Grotto by rowboat to witness the famous cerulean glow. Ride a classic Capri taxi up the winding coastal road to Anacapri, descend through Capri town, and wander the Piazzetta's designer shops and café culture. Your guide handles all logistics and pacing; you simply follow curiosity. Weather permitting, the grotto visit forms the centrepiece; rougher days swap it for a coastal boat circuit instead.

What to expect

Your guide greets you at the ferry terminal and escorts you through the public boat queue to the Blue Grotto dock. Small rowboats take groups into the cave itself; expect close quarters and the surreal sight of sunlight bouncing off the water to paint everything blue. After emerging, you'll climb into a shared taxi for the hairpin ascent to Anacapri, then descend toward Capri town, stopping where it suits you. The Piazzetta buzzes with tourists and locals; shops range from international luxury to local crafts. Allow time for a leisurely café sit if the mood strikes. Return ferry departs in late afternoon.

Good to know

Wear comfortable shoes for uneven cobblestones and boat transfers. The grotto closes in rough seas; plan flexibility. Bring sun protection and a light layer—sea breeze cools quickly. Meals and drinks cost extra; consider packing snacks. Prams work in town but rowboat access is tight with children.
