Tour Overview
This Semi-Private Capri Tour from Naples is designed to provide a complete island experience while avoiding the feeling of a large tour group.
Located in the Gulf of Naples near Sorrento, Capri has long been known for its dramatic cliffs, clear blue waters, artistic atmosphere, and Mediterranean charm. The island became a retreat for Roman Emperor Augustus, who expanded Capri with villas, gardens, temples, and aqueducts that helped shape its early history.
Following the fall of the Roman Empire, Capri experienced centuries of changing fortunes, including pirate attacks and military occupation before evolving into one of Italy’s most recognized coastal destinations by the late 19th century.
With a semi-private group limited to six guests, this experience allows for smoother transportation, easier interaction with your guide, and a more comfortable pace throughout the day.
What You’ll Experience
