- Adventure7456860 contributionsHighly recommend this boat tour of Capri with Ciro!We loved our boat tour of Capri with Ciro! He was friendly and helpful, showing us the best spots. It was a relaxing and amazing day on a lovely boat seeing the beautiful island. Highly recommend!Written June 12, 2022
- NYC19810 contributionsAmazing day with Ciro!My wife and I along with our two kids had a fabulous day with Ciro and on his boat! We rented a half day and Ciro made it a fantastic experience for the whole family. He was incredibly helpful communicating and confirming our reservation leading up to the day we had planned. The overall boat experience was a true highlight of the trip and we loved it. Ciro told us all about the island, gave us recommendations and we had a fabulous day with him on his boat. We even all jumped in the water which was a fun memory (cold water in April!) Thank you Ciro and highly recommend him if visiting Capri and want to take a boat tour around the island.Written April 18, 2022
- zg2140 contributionsAmazing boat ride around the island! Must do!Great experience in Capri a must-do in your list. Lovely boat ride with last minute reservation super flexible and a competitive price. We didn't get any extra fancy champagne or snack but hey we were here for the boat. Ciro is a local and gave us great recommendations for food and what to do around the island. The boat was beautiful and in great conditions, we really enjoyed our trip a lot!! Gracias Ciro, Grazie mille!!Written April 15, 2022
- boris10060 contributionsThere is only one Ciro! :)Amazing tour, we returned to Capri after 6 yours and there was no doubt we would have another tour with Ciro. Again we had a great time, Ciro was full of stories about the island. Highly recommend him, Capri boat tour hardly gets better than this!Written July 18, 2021
- elic2140 contributions5 stars hands downI tried two different companies this was the best one because he had a lot of patience and attention it was an excellent tour!Written July 3, 2021
- CarlosMelperuano0 contributionsCiro Made Our DayWe met him and he was immediately super friendly and welcoming. He made us feel like part of his family. We had not been having the best day in Capri but within the hour we were on his boat, he turned it around. He is very talkative and wants to get to know all of us. We recommend him highly. If you are in Capri, you MUST pick Ciro!!Written April 27, 2019
- thiagords20 contributionsVery nice tour, very nice guide, very nice boatWe met Ciro at Marina Grande, and arranged to go around the island. Ciro was very helpful, even though we do not speak good Italian. His boat looked like new, and was very clean. It took approximately 1 hour, very pleasant time. I do recommend to look for Ciro there.Written December 27, 2018
- Sangue-Italiano20180 contributionsWonderful!My friend and I arranged to have Ciro take us on a bout tour of Capri. He exceeded expectations! Gave us more time than agreed on. A bit of an historian, having interesting stories of the island. I really can not say enough about him. I have already reserved a 1 month stay on Capri in the spring and am looking forward to a repeat excursion with Ciro.Written December 17, 2018
- Jaretthecarrot0 contributionsUnforgettable experience with CiroPrior to arriving on Capri my wife and I agreed we wanted to take a boat tour around the whole island (circa 2hrs), the decision to make was do we go on a large group boat or find a local to take us on a private small boat tour. The larger group option for both of us was €36 or private boat just over €100. Once-in-a-lifetime for us, my wife twisted my arm to go on a private tour and I’m so glad she did. We spoke to a few drivers in Marina Grande and Ciro was by far the nicest and professional. The tour we had with Ciro was unforgettable. He pointed out all the sights around the island with passion, took us into a lot of the caves (coral, white, green & fisherman’s) that larger boats wouldn’t dare, kindly took many photos for us and gave us tips on how best to get around Capri and Anacapri and what not to miss on the island. We highly recommend Ciro‘s tour!Written November 10, 2018
- lpash12340 contributionsLovely tourSix of us (three couples) visited Capri 13th July not knowing what our priority was to look at while their. We were told about this boat hire by a local restaurant owner. The boat trip was the best money we spent all week, Ciro Aliperta was a great guide, charming and fun and we all thoroughly enjoyed spending time with him and his boat.Written July 24, 2018
- Justin71200 contributionsGreat couples experience!This was one of the highlights of our trip in Capri. We had the most fantastic host Carmine who was a friendly local, not too intruding and also knew everything about the island. He showed us around the Grottos and let us take complete control of what we wanted to do and see as well as providing us champagne and soft drinks! Definitely recommend taking this tour!Written July 22, 2018
- Tom C0 contributionsGreat Tour!It was the highlight of our day trip to Capri! Ciro did an amazing job of showing us all the beautiful sites around Capri and was a master captain....and his price was VERY reasonable, too!Written July 20, 2018
- Georgina L0 contributionsAn amazing trip!Ciro is lovely and a fantastic sailor! The trip was wonderful and could not fault it! Well worth the money; as there were four of us so it worked out at £25pp - it's £100 to book the private boat tour (per boat, not per person) so we grouped up with another couple and paid half. The boat is fab! It is elegant, modern and super comfy! The trip was incredible thanks to Ciro! Highly recommend!Written July 18, 2018
- ctebkennedy120180 contributionsFantastic!!Highlight of the trip!! Nicest guy ever... Genuinely loved his island and his enthusiasm was contagious. Thanks so much!Written July 11, 2018
- Jeremy L0 contributionsGreat boat ride / tourWe were debating between taking the bigger boat with lots of tourist or a small private boat. Small private with worth the extra money for a once in a lifetime type experience. Ciro was a good and friendly captain taking us to all the spots, letting us jump out for a swim, providing towels and a fresh water shower plus taking photos for us and supply wine and beer on the cruise. Truly amazing!Written June 29, 2018

Ciro offers an amazing boat tour. It began with an easy meeting location by the port, we were allowed to bring our own refreshments on board and also Prosecco was provided by Ciro. The anaconda goiter is a comfortable boat, that had a large sun bed, to relax and enjoy the views. Ciro explained our options to us; if we wanted to queue to visit the blue grotto for 1 hour or use that hour to stop and swim in the green grotto. He provided information on the island when necessary and allowed us to play our own music from the boats radio. He was very accommodating in allowing us to swim, giving us plenty of time and provided floaties too.
The boat tour brought us around the entire of island of Capri, which was a wonderful experience. Overall the service, the boat and Ciro were exceptional and we would recommend his boat tours to everyone.

We cannot recommend this tour with Ciro enough. After spending so much time looking at the different options for private boat tours in Capri, we are thrilled we went with Ciro.
The meeting point was easy to find, and towels are provided.
The entire experience was so much fun and he offered interesting local insight to all the spots we visited. We were able to swim in multiple beautiful locations that were not crowded (we went in September). At no point did we feel rushed, the entire experience was so relaxing. He even offered to take photos of us in front of beautiful picturesque areas!
Highly recommend you book this tour, it will be an experience you remember for a lifetime!

We had a great time on the water with Ciro who is extremely kind and helpful and made the whole experience easy for us!
It was really good to be able to escape the crowds in Capri, see the amazing scenery around the island and go for a swim in gorgeous waters - all only accessible by boat.
We did have to cut the trip short due to weather, which was understandable. Ciro messaged us the day before to let us know that we might need to cancel the whole tour. However, on the day he advised that he would still be able to take us out for a boat ride and swim for a reduced rate.
Thank you, Ciro!

Yesterday we found ourselves at the Port of Capri and among the various options we were considering we came across Ciro.
He made us do a wonderful private excursion on a Gozzo where in a very nice and professional way he explained the beauties of the island... And after a dip in the sea we returned to port... Always smiling and never out of place... Highly Recommendation.

We were a little overwhelmed when we first got to Capri. They offer so many tours, even though we knew what we wanted we were a little confused by all the different packages. Ciro’s approach and very matter-of-fact like demeanor offered us one of his packages, which was a two hour private tour of Capri and Anacapri. At first we said no but after looking at all the different options we decided to go with him and we’re so glad we did. If you want a relaxing boat ride with just you and your family or traveling partners this is the way to do it. Ciro is a great captain. He is knowledgeable and friendly, but does not intrude on your time on his boat. Our family had a fabulous trip and a memorable one and that’s all we could ask for. We would recommend that Ciro get more noodles and provide towels for guests as well. This is not a complaint , just a recommendation for the swims that he offers as part of his boat tour. Lastly, you can see that Ciro clearly enjoys the work that he does, and that makes all the difference in the experience that he provides. Thank you Ciro for a wonderful trip!

We had an awesome experience. Ciro was excellent and made the trip. He helped guide us through the Blue Grotto experience and then took us around the island of Capri making little swim stops along the way. Highly recommend this experience. The boat was super comfortable and a lot fun. Two couples and two kids. We loved it.

Ciro our tour guide was really great; he showed us around the perimeter of the whole island and took us to the area where we had the blue grotto tour. It was a great day. Excellent three hours on the water

We are a family of three, traveling with a 3 (almost 4) year old. We booked the morning boat tour with Ciro. It was easy to find him at the meeting point and we were off! Ciro made us feel comfortable as soon as we got on the boat, providing some blankets for us to sit or lay out on. I let Ciro know that my husband gets anxious on boats and he was accommodating to that. He gave us the option to find out how long the wait was for the Blue Grotto. Luckily it was short that day and I got a change to experience it. I do recommend this if if the wait is not too long or if you don’t mind waiting! After, Ciro took us around Capi where we saw other beautiful sites, including the Faraglioni Rocks. We had plenty of time for a swim in the ocean. Ciro also let my daughter steer the boat! I highly recommend this tour. It was the highlight during my time in Capri!!!

My friends and i took a boat trip with Ciro and we loved the experience. The duration was not 2,5h but 2h. We went around the island and had a swim. Ciro was very entertaining and he showed us all the relevants spots and recommended a place for a lunch, which we really enjoyed. This tour makes you love Capri even more! I would definitely recommend Ciro, even though we didn't get that additional half an hour that is mentioned here 🙂

First let say Ciro our boat captain was fantastic. Outstanding communication both before and at cruise time. Got to se the Azure Grotto, the capri coastline, and beach areas. Capt. Ciro Aliperta gave my family great commentary on the history of various rock formations on the coast. Stop twice to swim in two different places. I would definitely do again.
