"My husband and I took a private charter on our Honeymoon and it was the highlight of our 2 week trip!!! I was pleasantly surprised how communicative this company was and the day before our captain, Michele contacted us, ensuring we got out on the water early enough and picked us up! Throughout the tour he educated us on the history/structures on Capri, pointing out great picture spots AND took pictures/videos as well. He set up an incredible lunch for us at a restaurant that wasn’t packed on the water (incredible meal and view). When we ran late while purchasing an item on capri he didn’t make us feel rushed at all. The focus was on us the whole time and he made our trip absolutely amazing!!! At the end he gave us recommendations of restaurants/places nearby in Sorrento and Positano too. I couldn’t recommend this enough!! 10000/10 stars"
"We had a wonderful day sailing Capri! The hosts were spectacular and made the day easy. We made several stops for sightseeing, food and drinks along the way. Would highly recommend!"
Before you book
Frequently asked questions
Where do we board the boat in Positano?
At the pier of Spiaggia Grande, Positano's main beach, right below the village. We confirm the exact meeting time when you book.
Which tour should we choose?
Choose Capri for the Faraglioni, the sea grottoes and time on the island; the Amalfi Coast for Praiano, the Furore fjord and Amalfi; or the Amalfi Coast & Capri tour to see both in one long day. Not sure? Tell us what you'd love to see and we'll suggest the right day.
Is lunch included?
No — lunch is ashore and at your own expense, during your free time in Capri or Amalfi. In Capri, if you book lunch at our partner sea-view restaurant, you come ashore with its private water-boat service and skip the €100 port fee.
How do we book and pay?
Send us your date, your group size and where you're staying — on WhatsApp, by email or through our booking form. We reply quickly with a quote for the whole boat, in euros. A deposit holds your date; the rest is paid on board.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Safety comes first: your skipper decides whether the sea is safe and may adjust the route. If the weather stops your tour, we offer you a new date or a refund of what you've paid.
Staying in Sorrento instead?
All our tours also depart from Marina Piccola in Sorrento — or ask us for a tailor-made day.
