Program Description
Discover the beauty of Capri, one of Italy's most famous islands, on a full-day trip from Sorrento! Turquoise waters of the Bay of Naples, picturesque streets, dramatic coastal views and the famous Blue Grotto, where sunlight creates a remarkable natural spectacle, await you. You'll also experience two different sides of the island - peaceful Anacapri and the lively town of Capri.
Your adventure begins at the port of Sorrento, where you'll meet your local guide and board a high-speed hydrofoil. As you cruise across the Bay of Naples, admire the deep blue sea and the impressive cliffs of Capri appearing on the horizon. Upon arrival at Marina Grande, you'll take a minibus towards one of the island's most famous attractions.
The Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra) is a spectacular sea cave known for its intensely blue waters. After descending a flight of steps, you'll board a small rowing boat and enter the cave. The extraordinary glow is created by sunlight passing through an underwater opening, illuminating the water from below. It's one of Capri's most iconic natural wonders!
Next, you'll visit Anacapri, a peaceful town located in the higher part of the island. Wander through its cobbled streets, browse local shops and discover charming corners with beautiful views. During your free time, you can choose to visit Villa San Michele, the former home of Swedish doctor and writer Axel Munthe, surrounded by gardens. Another option is to take the chairlift to Monte Solaro, Capri's highest peak, offering panoramic views of the island and the Tyrrhenian Sea. Both attractions are optional and require an additional fee.
The next part of your journey takes you along the winding "Mamma Mia Road" towards Capri town. This is where you'll experience the atmosphere of Italian dolce vita! Stroll through the famous Piazzetta, the heart of local life, before exploring the elegant Via Camerelle, known for its designer boutiques and exclusive shops.
During your free time, you can discover even more of the town's charming spots. Visit the historic Certosa di San Giacomo monastery (optional), stop by Carthusia, a famous perfumery offering fragrances inspired by the island, or relax at a café with a traditional Italian espresso. There will also be time to enjoy lunch at your own expense, try some Italian gelato or shop for souvenirs.
Towards the end of the day, you'll meet your guide and take the funicular railway down to Marina Grande. If time and availability allow, you may also have the opportunity to join an optional boat tour around Capri, offering a different perspective of the island's coastline (additional fee applies). Afterwards, board the hydrofoil for your return journey to Sorrento.
