Perfect Day at Capri Island!

Michael was awesome! Smart and showed his passion for the tourists and country! He is the third generation to be a tour guide! We hit all of the main spots and he was very attentive! Loved him! Thakuou!

The perfect way to experience Capri and Anacapri

We were a small group and left early to get a jump on the crowds! We were blessed with a blue grotto moment first thing in the morning and had a 3 minute wait on the stairs to jump into the rowboat. We hustled back up to Anacapri to float onto the chairlift and had just a 15 minute wait there. Luigi kept us on a loose schedule that gave us plenty of time to explore and ended with an extra boat tour around the island to check out a few nooks and crannies. It was a perfect day! Not having to worry about, or stand in line for the public ferry and beating the crowd was fantastic!

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.
