Board the ferry at Marina Grande and spend a day skirting Capri’s sea caves, riding a chairlift to Mount Solaro, and strolling La Piazzetta. This private full-day excursion balances boat time at the Blue Grotto with land visits to Anacapri and the Gardens of Augustus.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
Sunlight bounces off Marina Grande as the ferry eases into Capri; limestone cliffs rise like old theater wings and the sea smells of salt and lemon groves. A private tour from Positano unfolds here: a convertible or shuttle climbs the Mamma Mia Road, small boats thread basalt caves, and the Blue Grotto waits — when tide and weather permit — to flood its interior with impossible turquoise.
