The Ultimate Mediterranean Island Escape

A day trip from Rome to Capri is a seamless journey from the historic heart of Italy to the glittering Tyrrhenian Sea. Most tours utilize high-speed trains to Naples, followed by a scenic jetfoil or private boat crossing to the island. Once on Capri, you can explore the sophisticated streets of Capri Town, the rugged heights of Anacapri via chairlift, and the world-famous Blue Grotto. Whether you choose a budget-friendly bus tour or a luxury private yacht experience, these curated itineraries handle all logistics—from train tickets to sea transfers—allowing you to focus entirely on the breathtaking views of the Faraglioni rocks and the Gardens of Augustus.

Flawless Logistics

The high-speed train from Rome was so easy. Our guide met us in Naples and handled everything. The private boat around the island was the highlight of our honeymoon!

Magical Blue Grotto

I was worried about the long day, but it was worth every second. The Blue Grotto is even more blue in person. Highly recommend the small group option for better service.

Long Day but Beautiful

It is a full 13-hour day, so be prepared. However, seeing the Faraglioni rocks and having lunch in Anacapri was a dream come true. Great value for the price.

Perfect Winter Trip

Even in the off-season, Capri is stunning. The chairlift to Monte Solaro gave us views all the way to Vesuvius. Everything was perfectly organized from Rome.

Great Guide

Our guide was a local from Capri and knew all the best spots for authentic gelato. The ferry ride can be bumpy, but the island beauty makes up for it.

Iconic Views

The Gardens of Augustus offer the best photo spots for the Faraglioni. This tour is a must-do if you only have a few days in Rome and want to see the coast.
