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.

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.

Had a great time getting a tour around Capri with Gianni's Boats! We opted for the 3 hour tour and had a great time floating around the island, taking in the beautiful sights and taking a few dips in the beautiful, clear (and of course cold) Capri waters. We opted to skip the Blue Grotto since we wanted to be able to take our time enjoyed the coast without spending ~45 minutes waiting in line, but it was nice to have the option. Carmine was our skipper and he was truly fantastic and helped make it one of the highlight experiences of our whole honeymoon. He even took us to a sea cave that we were able to swim into and get a similar view as the Blue Grotto (but from in the water), which was awesome. Highly recommend!

Half day Capri boat tour

My wife and I booked a half day Capri boat tour with Gianni’s Boat. Before I get to the tour review I would like to specially mention Linda who handled our booking, coordinated the details and even made recommendations for lunch on Capri. Out skipper was Lorenzo, a Capri native, who knew the island and surrounding waters. He gave us a history lesson on the area which was very informative. Lorenzo took us to the places with the best views. Due to his mastery of the seas, the ride was smooth and uneventful. The 4 hours went by very quickly and if given the opportunity would book with Gianni’s Boat again.
