I would recommend this tour to everyone. Cooperative SAntonio are very organised to get you to Capri. They organise a coach for a small extra fee but its so worth it to avoid queues at the funicular railway or buses. You get an hour and a half in Capri then they take you to Anacapri with more time for lunch. Ends with a tour round the island. This is our second year doing the trip and made our holiday.
Thank you very much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your day with us. We hope to welcome you on board again soon!
An excellent boat trip from start to finish! Me and my partner booked this from a recommendation and we are so glad we did. The boys organising the tour couldn’t be more helpful, no question was too much. They provided us with lots of information about the island and what to do and what to avoid. We would recommend purchasing tickets for their shuttle bus as this helped to skip queues and gain the most free time from your visit. They recommended a restaurant in anacapri to eat, go there, the food is incredible! Highly recommend this trip and thank you for making our trip so enjoyable and stress free!
Thank you very much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your day with us. We hope to welcome you on board again soon!
It was a beautiful excursion made easy by the punctuality with which we were picked up already in S.Agata, where we were staying, with a van driven by the legendary "Ciro". We left right on time from Nerano, and upon arrival at Marina Grande, they offered us the chance to visit the island in a priority lane organized by them for €28. All this freed us from a Spartan organization and saved us from lines everywhere, for tickets and buses. We thought that for the time we had, it would be great! And we were right! It was really worth it! Vincenzo, the voice of the boat guide, is a great organizer and has good guys who follow him! So much kindness and smiles in repeating the information. I highly recommend this experience to everyone because with the S.Antonio cooperative you can just think about having fun, they take care of the rest!😊
Grazie di cuore per la vostra splendida recensione! Siamo felici che abbiate apprezzato l'organizzazione, la puntualità e la professionalità del nostro staff. Un grazie speciale anche per le belle parole dedicate a Ciro, Vincenzo e a tutto il team: sarà un piacere condividerle con loro. Speriamo di rivedervi presto per una nuova avventura insieme!
I was picked up at the correct time by Rosaria, a pretty woman with amazing driving skills and taken to the port to start my Capri boat trip. The staff on the boat were very helpful and friendly. They told me where I should go to see and eat, then we went around the island to view it from the sea then back to to harbour and another exciting drive with Rosaria. Top driver 👌
Thank you so much for your positive review! We're so glad to hear that you had a great experience with us.
Firstly the tour ran like clockwork. Punctual to the second. Clean buses and immaculate boat. The guides were informative and knowledgable. Ok so bottom line is please, please read the small print. You should know what you are actually paying for. Because I didn’t and wording is misleading. This is not a tour on capri island. It shouldn’t be called a guided tour really as you can get to capri on your own from Sorrento quite cheaply. It’s actually for being collected from your hotel, taken to the boat and then dropped off at capri marina. That’s what £76 per person gets you. At the end of the day they pick you up and go around the island by boat which was wonderful. It also leaves from Nerano so a 2 hour journey from our hotel just to get on the boat. Why? There is a perfectly good marina in Sorrento. Then once on board they start telling you all the extras I appreciate the furnicular or the chair lift as extra but being told there is an extra €28 euros to pay per person for the operator to take you on the bus from the port to capri and then on to anacapri or else you are on your own was news to me and many others too. I agreed upfront as thought surely this is included and would check with Viator later. Lots of confusion there too. Then at the end of the day caused a lot of embarrassment as they collected the money which I didn’t feel was right. In total this has cost almost £200 so choose the tour carefully and make sure it leaves from Sorrento as 4 hours of the day is spent getting to and from the port.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are pleased to read that you appreciated the punctuality of the service, the cleanliness of our buses and boat, the professionalism of our staff, and the boat tour around Capri, which is one of the highlights of the experience. However, we would like to clarify several points for future travelers. What is included in the tour is clearly described on the booking platform before purchase. Unfortunately, it appears that the tour description was not read carefully. The price you paid does not include an organized land tour of Capri, and there is no mention of such a service in the online description. The guided land tour offered by our guides is an optional activity. Guests are under no obligation to participate and are free to explore Capri independently. You chose to join this optional tour. Before anyone decides whether to participate, our guides clearly explain the cost (€28 per person), what it includes, and how payment is made. This fee covers transportation between the different areas of the island, allowing guests to avoid the very long queues for public buses during the busiest time of the year and make the most of their time on Capri. Regarding the departure point, it is also clearly stated in the tour description that the boat departs from Marina del Cantone (Nerano), with an optional shuttle service available from Sorrento. In addition, all the pickup details were sent to you via the Viator chat on June 28 for your tour scheduled on July 14. This gave you more than two weeks to review the information and decide whether the itinerary met your expectations. If it had not, you had plenty of time to contact us or cancel your reservation before the tour date. For this reason, we cannot agree with the statement that the information was misleading. The departure point, the itinerary, the inclusions, and the optional nature of the land tour were all communicated before the tour took place. Unfortunately, your review suggests that neither the booking description nor the information we sent before your excursion was carefully reviewed. We always encourage our guests to read the tour description and pre-departure information carefully so they can choose the experience that best suits their expectations.
Perfetto! Tour guide Vincenzo and friendly crew provided the perfect "Capri Day" experience for our group, complete with transportation around the island, great advise on how to make the most of our time there, and a sightseeing cruise around the island on our way back to beautiful Nerano. It was well worth the extra fee (I think it was 18€) for the helpful tips, the shuttle service up and down the island and the wristband that got us to the front of the line for the chair lift. The reliable and easily accessible transportation alone was worth the money. Unfortunately, the Blue Grotto was closed for the 10th consecutive day when we were there. Otherwise, it was an amazing experience from start to finish, and this tour company deserves a lot credit for it. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your positive review! We're so glad to hear that you had a great experience with us.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your boat trip . We hope to welcome you on board again very soon for another unforgettable day!
Avoid buying the wrist bands on board the boat. My family, two adults and two teenagers, took the shared tour of Capri on 24th June from Sant'Agata at a cost of €280. We unfortunately were duped into panic buying the yellow wrist band onboard for bus transfers on the island which we paid in cash back on the boat touring around the island. The guide who sounds New Zealand with a Canadian baseball cap said that bus queues on the island were long and that to pay €28 each was only €11 more expensive than queuing up each time to buy a bus ticket. Then for good measure he said that they had two passengers the day before who missed the boat and four or five the day before. He also said that they were sharks on the island that would rip us off. When we met in Anacapri he said that the best value restaurant that they go to was "Le Arcate". He said not to eat anywhere else. Most of the yellow wrist customers went to "Le Arcate". When we were there one of the three tour guides came by our table not to check on us but to do a headcount of how many yellow wrists bands they funneled into that restaurant. This restaurant had a €12 surcharge for our meal. We never paid a surcharge in Rome for eating out. The tour guide before we broke for lunch said he could organise the chairlift for €15 each ( it only costs €14) or a bus & row boat to the Blue Lagoon for €43 ( €25 for the bus and €18 for the row boat). I've since discovered that the public bus from Anacapri to the steps near the Blue Lagoon was less than €3. We unfortunately got sucked into paying €112 for three mini bus journeys. One from the marina to Capri, then one from Capri to Anacapri and then from Anacapri back to the marina. We since discovered that we could have taken three taxis for half that price! If we had bought the all day public transport ticket it would have cost even less with the option of two rides on the Funicular which our teenagers would have enjoyed far more that a basic minibus ride. We had to wait for all of the minibus rides of ten to fifteen minutes each time. It was not faster than the public transport on the island. I unfortunately trusted the tour guide on the boat. I would be hesitant to recommend anyone taking the shared tour of Capri because of what we experienced. We spent over €500 just to see the island and eat in a restaurant. We would have more free time to explore the island by using public transport and doing our own thing than to use this basic minibus service.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to read that you were disappointed with your experience, as our goal is always to help our guests make the most of their day on Capri. We would, however, like to clarify a few points. First of all, the transportation package and any additional activities are completely optional. No guest is ever required or pressured to purchase them, and everyone is free to explore the island independently using public transportation, taxis, or any other option they prefer. Our guides are local professionals who know Capri extremely well. Their recommendations are based on years of experience and are intended solely to help guests enjoy the island while avoiding unnecessary stress and long waiting times. Capri is one of the busiest destinations in Italy, welcoming thousands of visitors every day, and navigating the island during peak season is often much more challenging than it may appear. The prices communicated by our guides are correct and transparent. In particular, the advantage of visiting the Blue Grotto with our assistance is not the ticket price itself, but the significant reduction in waiting times whenever conditions allow. Since our guides work on the island every day, they know the best times to visit and how to organize the itinerary as efficiently as possible. Regarding restaurant recommendations, these are simply suggestions based on our guides' experience. Guests are always free to choose where they would like to have lunch. We are truly sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations and that your impression of our tour was negative. Reading your review is disappointing for us because we genuinely care about every guest's experience and work hard every day to provide the highest level of service. At the same time, we also recognize that it is impossible to satisfy every single traveler. We are proud that the overwhelming majority of our guests leave extremely positive feedback, with thousands of 5-star reviews highlighting the professionalism of our team, the quality of our organization, and the dedication of our guides. While we fully respect your opinion, it does not reflect the experience shared by the vast majority of the people who choose to travel with us. We appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective and wish you all the best.
We have spent the day in Capri having been picked up from our hotel and transferred to the boat. It was so easy and everyone was very helpful. As we started the tour the Lead Guide talked about Capri and what the day would entail, he was knowledgeable and entertaining it was a pleasure to listen to him! As part of the trip we could purchase a ticket which would give us access to a minibus which would take us to Capri and Anacapri, this was amazing as it stopped us having to negotiate different buses, something we did not even know we would have to do! We eventually ended up at the chairlift, the ticket allowed us to skip the line and we did not have to wait too long! The chairlift itself was amazing and something we will never forget, even though we said there was no way we were doing it! Even on the minibus the guys were friendly and informative and went out of their way to make sure everyone knew when and where we had to catch the boat back! We ended up with a tour around the island! The team were amazing and made the day really special, anyone thinking of booking this, do it, you will not regret it
