Leave Rome behind for Capri’s coastal scenery, with round-trip coach and ferry travel and a choice of guided or independent island time.
About this tour
Trade Rome’s busy streets for Capri’s sea air on a full-day journey across the Bay of Naples. This Rome Capri Day Trip by Bus and Ferry pairs round-trip coach and ferry travel with time to discover the island’s coastal scenery and lively streets. Choose a guided option or explore independently, with an English- and Spanish-speaking tour host accompanying the trip. Guided visits include the chance to see the Blue Grotto, subject to sea conditions and the day’s schedule. The grotto cannot be reserved in advance, and high-season queues can be lengthy; if a visit is not possible, a scenic alternative such as the Faraglioni may be offered. Hotel pickup is available when selected at booking, while the meeting point is near Flaminio Metro A station. The Rome Capri Day Trip by Bus and Ferry operates from May to October. Bring comfortable clothing, sunscreen, and sunglasses, and allow time for a full day away from the capital. Choose the option that fits your travel style and set out for Capri by land and sea.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.40 from 137 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 4.9.
