What people are saying about Sorrento

One of my favourite days. Fortunate enough the weather was amazing and cooperated to be able to see everything. The guide and captain we had (sorry I forgot your names!) were funny and friendly. Felt like we had enough time to briefly explore Capri, swim and see the iconic attractions of the island. The guides made sure everyone was able to see the attractions and get their photos. Would definitely recommend this tour to others.

Amazing experience we had sailing to Capri on this tour. Very friendly and knowledgeable. We received some beer to enjoy and a caprese sandwich which was great. I highly recommend.

One of the most unforgettable amazing day trip from which I made a lot of new friends! Friendly crews and well planed schedule. Highly recommend!

The absolute best day ever!! I cannot recommend this enough. You HAVE to do it.
