Address
via Cristoforo Colombo, 79 - Marina Grande - Capri

The most memorable way to take in the highlights of Naples is by sea, and with this tour you can set sail on board a traditional wooden gozzo or lancia with Gianni's Boat to admire the spectacular Neapolitan coastline. Our on-board guide and skipper will share with you the fascinating history and lore of this captivating city, founded by the ancient Greeks and one of the most important ports in Italy still today.

A Unique Point of View!

Escape the crowds and chaos of Naples for a few hours and relax on the Mediterranean Sea while you sail past ancient castles, historic palaces, and picturesque corners of the coastline along Naples on one of the traditional gozzo boats in the Gianni's Boat fleet. Take advantage of this unique view of the city from the water to snap photos and learn about its most famous monuments. Unwind on board and enjoy commentary explaining the city's historic relationship with the sea and its seafaring traditions.

Beyond Naples

Gianni's Boat tours go beyond just the city of Naples, setting out into the waters of the Bay of Naples to admire the looming peak of Mt. Vesuvius, the lush Sorrentine Peninsula, and, in the distance, the southern coastline and islands in the bay.

Unparalleled Services

With Gianni's Boat, you can choose between a small-group boat tour option with a limited number of passengers or a private tour with a boat and skipper all for yourself. Both tours include our welcoming and professional staff, and extra perks like an aperitivo on board and, in many cases, transfers from your hotel in Naples.

Amazing experience!

Everything was smooth in scheduling the boat tour and our guide Carmine was extremely nice and helped us learn more about Capri. He allowed us a ton of swimming time which was perfect for us. Capri was a complete dream come true and this was the highlight of our trip. The lunch is actually homemade by the owner’s mother and it is just as good as you would hope.

We had a great time boating around Capri with our wonderful captain Maurizio. It’s a beautiful boat and he made plenty of stops so we could swim all around the island. Absolutely amazing and a highlight of our trip - highly recommend!

We had an amazing experience on this private boat tour! Everything was well organized from the beginning. The meeting point was easy to find, and check-in was quick and easy. Communication was excellent before, during, and after the tour, which made the entire experience stress-free. Our captain was fantastic—friendly, professional, and very easy-going. He made the whole trip feel relaxed and enjoyable. We were able to see everything we wanted, with plenty of time to swim, sunbathe, enjoy some drinks, laugh, and take in the beautiful scenery. We never felt rushed and could enjoy every moment. It was such a fun and memorable day and definitely one of the highlights of our trip. I highly recommend this private boat tour!

Exceptional full-day Capri boat experience from Sorrento — just as good as I remembered!

We used Gianni’s Boat Tour 10 years ago and had a fantastic experience, so expectations were high. I’m happy to say it was every bit as good as I remembered. We left from Sorrento for a full-day Capri experience, and our captain, Carmine, was excellent professional, relaxed, flexible and completely tuned into the kind of day we wanted. We told him up front that swimming was important to us, and that we were happy to skip the Blue Grotto if the line was too long. He understood immediately and shaped the day perfectly. The ride from Sorrento to Capri was beautiful, the scenery was incredible, and the swimming stops were the absolute highlight. Capri itself is stunning but very crowded, and seeing it from the water is by far the best way to experience it. Carmine gave us the perfect balance of sightseeing, swimming and time on Capri without making the day feel rushed or overly touristy. Highly recommended. This was one of the standout full-day experiences of our Italy trip.
