Capri day and night tour with local guide and boat trip
A playground for everyone from the ancient Greeks to Hollywood stars, Capri is the dazzling gem of the Neapolitan Riviera. You'll speed across by hydrofoil in the afternoon to pass the evening on Italy's most glamorous island doing exactly as you wish. Giovanna, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Before the sun goes down – or even better, at sunset – take a short walk to Augustus Gardens for the best views over the Faraglioni Rocks. When evening falls, most day-trippers have left the island, and you can enjoy strolling through Capri town's chic piazzas in search of an aperitivo.'
You'll start your Capri adventure with a tour around the island by boat, so you can take in the drama of its cliffs and grottoes. Then, as dusk descends, you'll be escorted up to Capri town for an evening of free time. Explore the maze of car-free lanes under your own steam during a self-guided walking tour, dipping in and out of designer shops or stopping for a gelato under the twinkle of the night sky.
Once you have your bearings, you'll be able to dine out in one of the many upmarket restaurants dotted around town. Giovanna says, ‘The local cuisine is tempting, with fresh seafood, pasta dishes and regional wines always reliable choices. For a light option, try a caprese salad – a simple combination of mozzarella, tomatoes and fresh basil which was invented here in the 1950s.' After your evening in Capri, you'll return to Sorrento late at night.
