Reviews
Our tour to Capri was one of those days you talk about long after you’ve come home. We hadn’t planned to travel to the south from our stay in Rome, simply because we thought it would be too much effort to arrange and we wouldn’t have enough time. However, we were recommended this tour from another couple at our hotel, and we decided to go for it! The meeting place from Piazzale Flaminio was an ideal starting point, and the journey from Rome was comfortable. Once we reached Naples and boarded the ferry, the views across the Bay were stunning and we knew we had made the right decision. Capri itself is simply beautiful and did not disappoint. Dramatic cliffs, impossibly blue water and lovely little streets to explore, with lots of high-fashion brands on the upper levels. It is a very full day, but we appreciated having some free time to do our own thing on the island to find a cute spot for lunch and just admiring the scenery. Do not be put off by the thought of a long day from Rome, because it was truly worth it if you are short on time like we were. Everything was well balanced, there were no hidden costs or incentives, and the tour was overall stress free.
