Then we will move to the highest part of the island, Anacapri, where it will be possible to enjoy an incredible view, stroll in the small village, reach the summit of Mount Solaro with the chairlift or simply relax while tasting delicious local specialties. After about 2 hours we will reach the center of Capri, the heart of the island, where the famous "Piazzetta" is located, passing through the small alleys characterized by luxurious boutiques, we will reach the Gardens of Augustus, which offer the best view of the stacks, symbol of the island, to leave you breathless once again ** Unfortunately, the Blue Grotto is not open every day, depending on the weather and the sea. ** if the Blue Grotto is closed, a boat tour will take place.

  • 3Ben there done that

    Domenico our guide was friendly and informative. There was some confusion in the beginning and lots of down time sitting around. We did not get to see the Blue Grotto experience, rather a bout tour around the island which was nice. We found Capri to be crowded and very expensive. Been there done it! Save yourself some time and money and just take the ferry on your own and walk around .

  • 2The blue grotto part was...

    The blue grotto part was cancelled due to rough sea conditions which we anticipated and understand. Our disappointment came from the start of the trip. We started on Capri with a meeting time of 10:30. Didn’t see anyone there and started communicating through the app about where to meet. They provided the cell of the guide. Called and no answer. Just as we were ready to call it off, our guide arrived as he just got off the ferry with others from Naples. He then proceeded to say it was time for a bathroom break and to get a drink if you wanted. He wanted everyone back by 11:00. We did not get on the bus to Anacapri until 11:18. Wish I had been told to meet at 11:00 or 11:15 instead of 10:30, such a huge waste of time as we arrived at 10:15 to be sure we were on time. The only reason for the 2 star is because of such a great local guide. If you’re staying in Capri, I definitely do not recommend this excursion. Part of the trip was waking around Capri for an hour, which if you’re staying in Capri you’ve already done. Since the blue grotto was closed, our guide had us go on the boat tour to see the other attractions which was the best part of the trip.

  • 5Greatest Experience of my life

    Capri is gorgeous! Our tour guide Fabrizio was fantastic and showed us all the historical sites and beautiful landscape of capri. The blue grotto was beyond words. What an amazing experience I recommend you do it if you are in the area.

  • 4Didn’t see the Blue grotto but still happy

    I booked the Blue Grotto experience in Capri leaving from Naples. The meeting site was at Bar Picnic 8:30am we were there a little earlier but by 8:30 there was no sign of a tour group and the later it got I actually started asking random tour guides if they were our tour group. Finally Fabrizio showed up with the rest of the tour group so that was a relief but I wish there was better communication instead of making me afraid I missed our tour or got the meeting spot wrong. But once all that was settled Fabrizio was in high gear and took care of all of us with no problem. He made sure we had clear instructions on where to sit in the ferry so we can get off the quickest and get a bus, there were so many people due to cruise ships coming in. We didn’t wait long at all for a bus that took us to Anacapri. He gave us the history and current events of the island of Capri which was very nice. We did not get a chance to see the Blue Grotto due to the long waiting time. We took a boat along the coast of Capri around the island, it was just so beautiful and the best way to end the day. I really can’t say it was better than blue grotto but it was well worth the money and longer than the 5-10 minute blue grotto experience. Overall the experience was great and my 7 year old had a blast from the jet ferry to the chairlift to the boat ride it was all a good time.

  • 5Exceptional Tour Guides

    We were booked with enjoycapritoirs and had the pleasure of being shown beautiful Capri by Fabriezo & Dominico. They were exceptional in every way, managing several large groups, their knowledge, speaking multiple languages & their charm! Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate to allow us in the blue grotto - but we were instead able to go into several other and better grottos without long waits or needing to transfer to a smaller boat to get inside (as with the blue grotto). Dominico knew how disappointed I was about the blue grotto being closed but assured me I would have if not the same - but better - experience in one of the grottos we WERE able to get into that day. He did not disappoint!! Moral of the review is, don’t be so hung up on the blue grotto - there’s others that are as beautiful and more comfortable & convenient to see!

  • 5Island Beauty

    We had a great day touring the Island by land and also by sea. Unfortunately the sea conditions did not able us to go into the Blue Grotto however our tour guide Fabrizio did a fabulous job taking us all over the island and giving us very informative information and explaining the history of Capri.

About Capri

Capri is a steep limestone island in the Bay of Naples, known for its sea grottoes, rock stacks and villas, and the terraced town above the harbour.

Capri rises from the sea off the Sorrentine peninsula, with two towns on its saddle: Capri itself, whose small square, the Piazzetta, is lined with cafés, and Anacapri, higher and quieter on the western side. The Roman emperor Augustus liked the island and Tiberius spent his last years here, and the ruins of his Villa Jovis stand on the eastern cliffs. Ferries and hydrofoils arrive at the Marina Grande.

Top-ranked sights in Capri: Faraglioni, Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra), Green Grotto (Grotta Verde).
