5Family
It’s a great tour, non stop it was the best day of our trip. Luigi was the tour guy and made us feel like family, so much fun.
5Great time in Capri
Had a wonderful tour of Capri a lot of information unfortunately the blue grotto was closed so we had a boat ride around the island which was a great alternative.. our only suggestion would be that they give better directions for where to meet the guy. We got to the ferry terminal area, which is a very large location. Our guide communicated with us via WhatsApp in order to find us.
4Enjoyable despite the heat and humidity
The early morning tour reduces the stress of lineups for the blue grotto and other activities. Anacapri was not as busy with tourists as Capriamd was a better experience for us
5Perfect 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!
5The 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!
5A great experience
The tour guide was exceptional and the day was great! I had never done a tour like this and was unsure but all was excellent.

About Sorrento
Sorrento perches on cliffs above the Bay of Naples, a charming lemon-scented town that makes an easy base for Capri, Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast.
The town's centre is Piazza Tasso, from which narrow lanes run past churches, shops selling limoncello and inlaid woodwork, and the peaceful cloister of San Francesco. Steps and lifts lead down the cliffs to Marina Piccola, where the boats leave, and to Marina Grande, a fishing harbour with seafood restaurants right by the water.
Top-ranked sights in Sorrento: Marina Grande, Baths of Queen Giovanna (Bagni Regina Giovanna), Praiano.
