Boat tour in Capri

Hello! My husband and I are looking for companies that do a 1-2 hour boat tour of Capri from the Capri Port. We are planning to take a ferry from Sorrento and spend the day in Capri, then take the ferry to Positano. Are we able to just book on the spot when we arrive? I’d prefer companies with reviews and does not have to be a private tour.

Thanks in advance!

There are boat tour companies on the dock that run regularly. You can’t miss them. You just book on the spot. Typically it’s an hour around the island, with optional Blue Grotto stop. The Blue Grotto may not be open (depends on weather/sea levels.) I found the hour tour very enjoyable and a decent value even without Blue Grotto.

I did the same thing you are, and it’s a great way to fit Capri into your schedule. Just get on the earliest ferry you can. I think I got to Capri by around 8:30am, took a boat tour, and the dock was just starting to fill up. Capri Town was already crowded in the morning, but Anacapri was wonderfully free of tourists well into lunchtime. Go straight there. Take the chairlift up to Monte Solaro (a trip highlight). By 3:00 you’ll be ready to move on and Capri will be in full zoo mode.

How much are the boat tours typically at the dock? And you recommend doing the boat tour first then go into Capri town?
