Real experiences from real travelers
The 4-hour small group tour was perfect. We saw caves we never could have found ourselves and the snorkeling near Li Galli was incredible. Highly recommend!
Booked a private Gozzo for my wife's birthday. Our skipper, Marco, was so knowledgeable and the sunset over Positano was something we will never forget.
A long day but worth it. The boat was comfortable and we had enough time to explore Capri town before heading back to Positano.
Everything from the booking process to the actual tour was seamless. The snacks and drinks were a nice touch, and the boat was spotless.
Beautiful boat and wonderful staff. Seeing my own coast from the sea made me fall in love with it all over again.
Our kids loved the swimming stops. The crew was very patient and made sure everyone was safe and having fun. Best day in Italy!
The scenery is unmatched. The only downside was the Blue Grotto wait, but that's expected in peak season. The boat ride itself was 10/10.
The skipper was very punctual and the boat was exactly as described. The drinks were cold and the fruit was fresh. Very happy with this booking.
Everything you need to know for your journey
Most tours depart from the main beach in Positano, known as Spiaggia Grande. Look for the provider's booth or meeting point near the ferry pier.
Typically, no. The entrance fee to the Blue Grotto is paid separately in cash at the cave entrance, as it is managed by a different entity.
If the sea conditions are unsafe, the tour will be cancelled. You will be offered a full refund or an alternative date to reschedule.
Most medium and large boats have a small marine toilet (head) on board, but smaller Gozzo boats may not. It's best to use the facilities on land before departing.
Yes, the majority of boat tours in Positano include the use of masks and snorkels at no extra cost.
Yes, most operators allow you to bring your own snacks, though many tours already provide drinks, fruit, and light appetizers.
While the Mediterranean is generally calm, those prone to motion sickness should take precautions or choose larger vessels. Morning tours often experience calmer waters.
Most traditional Gozzo and motorboats are equipped with a 'bimini' or sun canopy that provides shade over the seating area.
During the peak summer months (June–August), boat tours can sell out weeks in advance. We recommend booking at least 14 days prior to your arrival.
