So our group of 4 enjoyed our day on the water. Our boat tour guide was very communicative and kept in touch and made sure we showed up at the correct spot and we were grateful. The area at the pier for Capri is a ZOO of shops/restaurants and all sorts of stories. Good food and things to do. So overall we enjoyed our tour and we had to skip the Blue Grotto cause when we got there we had a 2hr wait ahead of us. Unfortunately, only ONE rowboat can make it into the grotto and each boat carries only 4-5 people. so do the math and you realize that most of your day, if you are DETERMINED to see it will be just sitting there doing nothing waiting for your turn. We declined cause we were excited about the other Grottos. BRUTALLY HONEST TIME: the other grottos are WAY WAY overrated. not sure why people seem to be SO excited. all four of us were UNDERWHELMED by them and not very impressed. Got to be honest, woudl we do this tour again or recommend it? probably not....
We even decided, after going around Capri to cancel our land day the next day on Capri. There isnt that much to do or be excited. Not sure why people wet their pants all over Capri. We had several hotels and other tour guides and locals tell us the EXACT same thing that Capri was overrated but people seem to get so excited about it... oh welll
if you enjoy being on the water then take this tour. if you are excited about seeing the grottos then dont be
