Explore Capri’s grotto, gardens, and Faraglioni Rocks on a private full-day trip from Rome with a local guide.

About this tour

Trade Rome’s streets for Capri’s sea air on a full-day island escape with a dedicated local guide. Your journey begins with a private, air-conditioned transfer from your accommodation in Rome to Naples, followed by a public hydrofoil crossing to Capri.

Explore the island with your guide, traveling by public boat and minibus. Visit the Gardens of Augustus and take in views of the Faraglioni Rocks, then wander Capri’s narrow streets for shopping and photos. If sea conditions allow, board a shared small rowboat for a brief visit inside the Blue Grotto. Its entrance ticket is not included and must be purchased in cash at the cave’s floating ticket office. If official management closes the grotto because of severe weather or sea conditions, you’ll visit Anacapri’s historic center instead.

With transport from Rome, round-trip hydrofoil tickets, and a guide on Capri arranged, this private 12-hour outing makes it easy to experience the island’s highlights. Book your Rome Capri Island and Blue Grotto tour for a day of coastal scenery and island exploring.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • 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. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
