Up to six people per booking, and the Blue Grotto is left out because the queue does not fit the shorter slot. 4.65 from 314 reviews at €151 per person for 2h. **Private per person?:** Book the 2h private Capri by Boat option for your own boat, a swim and snorkelling gear at €151 per person; minimum two, no Blue Grotto. Trade-off: Minimum two paying guests. (last checked September 15, 2026) ## Overview A classic 2 or 3 hour private tour of Capri on an authentic Gozzo boat with skilled skipper is something you cannot miss out when visiting this unique Italian Island.
