About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- michelsQ7391IA0 contributionsTotal 5 Star Experience!Roberto is an amazing Captain and Host. We had sooo much fun the day of our charter. First, the boat is big and comfortable. Roberto shared so much knowledge about the Amalfi Coast going back to the eruption of Mt. Vesuvious. It was amazing to listen to all the history and Roberto makes it entertaining and fun! We arrived into Capri and Roberto brought into a semi private docking area away from the tourist taking the ferries. Roberto’s lunch recommendation was fabulous. After some shopping and site seeing is Capri is was back the boat for a smooth trip back to Sorrento. We were with Captain Roberto for 8 hours and the time flew by. What an amazing day. If you’re looking for a great day, book it with Captain Roberto. You won’t regret it. Five stars all the way!!!Written October 5, 2024
- Explorer530450175310 contributionsMust do!!Amazing day on the boat with Roberto!! He was so kind to keep us safe with the questionable weather and to have us go out on the sea and show us all of the beautiful sites, getting us back just in time before a storm began! Special thanks to Rosa for picking us up and Roberto for his expert boating skills!! We will remember this day forever :)Written October 5, 2024
- Andrew K0 contributionsHighly recommendWe had a wonderful time and saw all around the island of Capri. We hope to bring more family back and do it again in the future! We highly recommend this experience to all!Written October 5, 2024
- kellytG2326PC0 contributionsGreat experience with Roberto!Roberto was a wealth of knowledge and treated us like family. This boat trip was really the highlight of our whole trip. He knew exactly where to take us for some hidden gems that I don’t think knew would have ever seen or have known about! Highly, highly recommend!Written October 2, 2024
- jakeasher420 contributionsBest Private Boat Tour Ever!My wife and I were on our honeymoon and we had a truly wonder experience on a private boat tour along the Amalfi Coast with Charter & Villas. First we were picked up from our hotel in Positano but Rosa who was lovely. She drove us to Sorrento where we met with the boat Captain (her husband Roberto) and 1st mate (her son Osvaldo). They were so sweet and their boat Lilla was beautiful. It had an upper level for a private experience. As we progressed along the coast, Roberto gave us a history of the coastal towns, architecture, and Roman ruins. He took many photos and videos for us and took us to all the sites without having to be wrapped up in the big tour boats and long waiting lines. All this while his son Osvaldo drove the boat perfectly. Their generosity and hospitality was above and beyond. My wife had been on a boat tour of the Amalfi coast before and said this was an unmatched experience. We stopped off in Capri and they brought us to their favorite restaurant where we had catch of the day fish, which were delicious. Roberto, Rosa, and Osvaldo made the day effortless for us and made it a once in a lifetime experience. They are an amazing family and deserve all the praise we can give. I would highly highly recommend them to anyone looking to tour the Amalfi Coast. At the end of it all Rosa drove us back from Sorrento to Positano. A day we will hold fondly in our memories forever.Written September 30, 2024
- Oliviafarias0 contributionsHighlight of our tripOsvaldo was a great captain and Rosa was a fabulous tour guide. Loved exploring the area by water, swimming off the coast in Capri, and then our fabulous lunch in Capri. So much fun and so much beauty!Written September 27, 2024
- Vacation7450370 contributionsBays of SorrentoRoberto was an amazing captain. We had the whole day on one of his beautiful boats relaxing with plenty of coves and caves to explore. He was extremely knowledgeable and professional. A super relaxed day. He also was our photographer for the day and I was able to get candid snapshots of our day. Highly recommend and will absolutely use again.Written September 25, 2024

- sheilafR8153XO0 contributionsHighlight of our ten days on the Amalfi CoastOur private boat charter with Roberto from Sorrento to Capri was the highlight of our ten day trip to the Amalfi Coast. Roberto and his son Osvaldo took excellent care of us all day long, especially my elderly mom who needed some extra TLC. They were consummate hosts, explaining the history, navigating gently and taking us to the very best spots to swim, see scenery and have lunch. Roberto has a huge wonderful personality and made us feel like family from the moment we met him to the last moment we drove off in the car with his lovely wife Rosa. We cannot recommend this excursion highly enough, and will book Roberto again and again on our future trips! A+++++Written September 3, 2024
- margs20120 contributionsPhenomenal Day Trip to Capri with Amazing Roberto!We took a private tour to Capri with Roberto and his wonderful son, and it was the very best day of our 9 days on the Amalfi Coast. They took incredibly good care of us, from helping my elderly mom to ensuring that where we went met the hopes and expectations of the rest of the group. A friend who previously had gone on an excursion with Roberto said that at the end of their day, Roberto felt like family. I’d go one further: From his warm welcome when we met at the marina, Roberto was family. Oh, and also, the boat and views and whole experience were incredible. A banner day in all our lives.Written September 2, 2024
- danarO5343GM0 contributionsHighlight of Italy trip!!Roberto and his son Osvaldo put together the most incredible day in paradise for our honeymoon. We toured the beautiful coastline while learning about the history. Roberto took us to an unforgettable lunch spot that was private and delicious with gorgeous views. After lunch we swam in the caves and took lots of incredible pictures. Roberto knows the best way to see Capri without having us wait in long lines at the typical tourist spots. Roberto gave us the experience of a lifetime. Best of all, we left the trip as friends and cannot wait to return!!!Written August 29, 2024

Chose this company based on great reviews. We were based in Sorrento and wanted a private tour of the amalfi coast and capri. Initially booked for two separate days. Roberto mistakenly had one of the dates wrong so we ended up doing the capri trip only. We ended up doing the amalfi coast tour with another company. This is a family owed business. They have two boats. We communicated with Roberto. We ended up having his wife and son on the boat tour. First, the communication could’ve been better. Not much information on planning the trip to capri. Some things we thought would be good to know after the fact. First, if you are going during busy season, it’s probably best to book your lunch reservation on the island ahead of time. Some tour operators do this with you beforehand. It gets booked up quite early. La fontinela, restaurant Tiberio are a couple to look at. Also The main capri harbor charges 100 euro to disembark. This was in addition to the fee the charter boat charged for the tour. Would have been good to know because they only take cash. Sorrento and positano do not charge this. There is the option to land in the marina piccola which is on the other side of the island. It’s a private dock so instead of spending 100 euro on dock fees, at least you can use it towards your lunch. This private harbor can book up thus the need for early planning by the tour operator. In terms of the boat itself, it’s nice and clean. 10m. Another very frustrating thing. They drive it really slow. This is fine when touring but we were literally the slowest boat in the water even when In open water. It took well over an hour to get to Sorrento from capri. We felt more waves. Our kids had much more sea sickness whereas our previous boat tour a couple of days earlier had none. We asked to go faster but the reply was that going faster would cause more water to be sprayed onto the inside of the boat .
One positive was that the crew was very nice and trying to accommodate as much as possible. I just wished some of these other things were better handled. Compared to our other boat tour, this was definitely for the worse.

Normally I don't .... I let my guests describe the experience and ratings on our work as done in the countless other reviews .... but this time I need to respond!
I want to start from the end of this absurd review, made not by the person who signs himself but by his dear one .... Wife .....
one of the few truths mentioned in this review is that:
"THE CREW WAS VERY NICE AND TRYING TO ACCOMMODATE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE"
"THE BOAT ITSELF WAS CLEAN AND BEAUTIFUL "
although it was extremely difficult to handle this host as it has been from the beginning ....
She made a request two months in advance for 2 days which she then partially modified without ever confirming the dates and paying a deposit to secure the dates!
Under date she finally confirmed to me with the deposit only one date of the two remaining available ... arrived in Italy she heard that the Amalfi coast was crowded and asked me if he could change the date again .... impossible a few days before the tour !
she asked me for my preference on a list of restaurants and I promptly gave my evaluation by inviting her to book one of her chosen by her letting me know which one and at what time .... I did again the same question the day before the boat tour ....never had the answer!
It was very frustrating to have this kind of people on board: sad and without clear ideas what they wanted to do!
During the boat tour we tried to have a reservation to a beach club in marina piccola, even Mrs Koo said to my wife on board they were not interested to go to the restaurant
When they realised to go in the island by the main harbour costed 100€ they asked to go to the beach club with out going to the restaurant without having lunch....CRAZY!
They wanted to blame us for their bad choices, first and foremost not let us make a reservation with days in advance
They let us understand they didn’t wanted follow our suggestion
Once on the island and disembarked we left them 3,5 hrs of free time to visit both towns Anacapri & Capri giving them all the tips and suggestions on where to go and what to do.....they spent more than 4.5 hrs without being in touch with us or sending a message even the were very delayed
Once they arrived they didn’t apologie for the delay plus Mrs Koo asked with rude and uneducated manners for another stop for swimming even if in overtime
As they seemed unhappy for the time spent on the island and it was very hot we gave them another stop for swimming in the natural lagoon before arriving in Sorrento harbour and it semed very welcome.
They asked to go faster but with that waves and their elderly parents on board....
they would all get wet....the captain drove slowly to avoid that!
Finally the crew was looking forward to the Koo's leaving the boat because they very difficult people.
