A perfect day in Capri

Great tour! Saw everything included in the itinerary including the blue grotto which was luckily open that day. It was a very efficient tour and no minute was wasted. The bus transportation on Capri was crucial, it saved us so much time and cash we would have spent on taxis. This tour was a highlight on my vacation. Luigi was the best tour guide, very positive and hilarious which made the tour even better.

The tour was wonderful....

The tour was wonderful. Unfortunately we weren't able to go into the blue grotto. This was the reason we booked the trip. We did enjoy the tour and our time in Capri!

Michele is the best...

Michele is the best guide! he ensured that we had fast track assess to chair lift when there was a long queue and the private boat tour was the best!

Over priced for a 3-4 hour tour

Tiziana was a great tour guide today on our tour of Capri. She did a great job. The tour itself honestly is over priced for what you get. It was $426 for two people for a tour that was only 3-4 hours. We had to wait two hours in line for the blue grotto. It was spectacular but overly crowded. Not sure the value is there for what you get.
