Capri Island Luxury Tours: Your Exclusive Mediterranean Paradise
Picture yourself gliding across sapphire waters toward limestone cliffs that have captivated emperors, artists, and jet-setters for over two millennia. Capri Island—the jewel of the Bay of Naples—isn’t just a destination. It’s a state of mind, a sensory awakening, an escape into a world where natural drama meets cultivated elegance.
Since Emperor Tiberius chose these volcanic shores as his personal paradise in 27 AD, Capri has remained the ultimate symbol of Mediterranean luxury. Today, this impossibly beautiful island continues enchanting discerning travelers who seek experiences beyond the ordinary—private boat excursions to hidden grottoes, cliffside dining overlooking the Blue Grotto, and five-star accommodations perched 300 meters above azure waters.
This is where la dolce vita isn’t just a phrase—it’s your daily reality.
Your Private Capri Boat Experience: Discovering Island Magic from the Sea
The soul of Capri reveals itself most intimately from the water. While day-trippers crowd narrow island streets, you’ll experience something entirely different—a private luxury boat tour that unveils Capri’s most spectacular perspectives.
Exploring Capri’s Iconic Coastal Wonders
Your journey begins at Marina Grande, where your private vessel awaits. As you depart, the island’s volcanic drama unfolds before you:
- The Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra): Famous sea cave where sunlight creates ethereal sapphire illumination—a natural phenomenon that has mesmerized visitors for centuries
- The Faraglioni: Three towering limestone sea stacks rising majestically from turquoise depths, creating Capri’s most photographed silhouette
- Hidden sea caves and grottoes: Secret coastal formations accessible only by water, each with unique character and beauty
- Luxury coastal villas: Glimpse legendary properties nestled into cliffsides, surrounded by lush bougainvillea and Mediterranean gardens
- Historic lighthouse: Navigate past this captivating sentinel that has guided sailors for generations
Swimming in Capri’s Crystalline Waters
Your captain anchors in secluded coves where the Mediterranean beckons irresistibly. Dive into waters so clear you can see 20 meters to the seafloor. The temperature, the color, the sheer purity—this is swimming elevated to art form.
As you float in sapphire stillness, your crew serves chilled wine. You gaze at the Faraglioni rising dramatically nearby. In this moment, you understand why Capri has inspired poets and painters for millennia.
Il Riccio: Gourmet Dining Above the Blue Grotto
Your boat tour culminates at Il Riccio, an exclusive beach club restaurant perched on cliffs directly overlooking the Blue Grotto. This isn’t merely lunch—it’s a celebration of Mediterranean abundance.
The specialty? Plateau Royal—an impressive display of raw seafood including sweet local scampi, delicate tuna, tender cuttlefish, and pristine clams. Each piece represents the purity of these waters and the chef’s respect for natural flavors. Paired with regional wines and served with views that stretch across the bay, this meal becomes a defining moment of your Italian journey.
Note: Table reservations are included; the meal is paid on-site, allowing complete ordering flexibility.
Hotel Caesar Augustus: Your Five-Star Clifftop Sanctuary
As spectacular as your days exploring Capri will be, your accommodations elevate the experience to something truly extraordinary. Hotel Caesar Augustus represents everything luxury travelers seek—exclusivity, authenticity, jaw-dropping location, and service that anticipates needs before they’re voiced.
A Position Without Parallel
Perched on the edge of 300-meter cliffs at the entrance to Anacapri, this architectural marvel seems to float above the Mediterranean. From your room, panoramic views encompass not just Capri itself but the entire Bay of Naples—a vista that transforms with every shift of light.
Dawn brings gentle pastels. Afternoon sun illuminates distant Mount Vesuvius. Sunset paints everything in dramatic golds. Night reveals a twinkling constellation of coastal towns across the bay.
Italian Craftsmanship Meets Modern Luxury
Every detail reflects commitment to beauty and guest comfort:
- Hand-painted majolica tiles: Artisanal ceramic work adorning bathrooms and terraces
- Wrought iron bedsteads: Elaborate craftsmanship blending artistry with comfort
- Hydromassage baths and showers: Ultimate relaxation after days of exploration
- Natural olive oil bath products: Locally-sourced amenities connecting you to island traditions

Wellness and Organic Gastronomy
The hotel’s wellness center offers the perfect respite—indulge in shiatsu massages, unwind in steam baths, or maintain routines in a state-of-the-art fitness room, all surrounded by those impossible views.
Dining at Caesar Augustus continues your culinary journey. The focus? Organic produce from the hotel’s cliff-top kitchen garden. Imagine tasting vegetables and herbs picked that morning from terraced plots overlooking the sea, prepared by chefs who understand that exceptional cuisine celebrates rather than masks natural flavors.
Your Free Day: Discovering Capri at Your Own Pace
Perhaps the greatest luxury we offer is unstructured time—freedom to follow curiosity wherever it leads. Your free exploration day on Capri invites you to create your own story on this enchanting island.
Timeless Attractions Worth Your Discovery
Will you explore narrow lanes where luxury boutiques nestle alongside family-run ceramics workshops? Perhaps you’ll take the chairlift to Monte Solaro, where 360-degree views make you feel airborne above the Mediterranean. Maybe you’ll simply claim a spot at your hotel’s pool and let the world slow to Capri’s perfect pace.
Consider these possibilities:
- Villa Jovis: Emperor Tiberius’ clifftop palace ruins with commanding coastal views
- Gardens of Augustus: Terraced flowerbeds offering postcard-perfect Faraglioni vistas
- Via Camerelle shopping: Where international luxury brands meet local artisan workshops
- Ancient ruins and archaeological sites: Roman history preserved in Mediterranean sunshine
- Hidden beaches: Secluded spots known primarily to locals and returning guests
- Anacapri exploration: The island’s elevated town with more relaxed pace and authentic character
Seamless Connections: Getting to Your Island Paradise
Your journey to Capri is orchestrated with the same attention to detail as every other aspect of your stay. Starting from Rome’s historic center, a private English-speaking driver meets you at your hotel lobby for direct transfer to Naples port.
At the embarkation pier, you’ll board a fast ferry or hydrofoil for the scenic crossing to Capri. The island grows larger on the horizon with each nautical mile, anticipation building beautifully. Upon arrival at Marina Grande, another private driver ensures smooth transfer to your hotel—every transition handled so you simply enjoy the journey.
This same seamless coordination extends throughout your Capri experience, with private driver services managing all island logistics, allowing you to focus entirely on savoring moments rather than managing details.

Frequently Asked Questions About Luxury Capri Tours
What makes Capri different from other Italian destinations?
Capri combines dramatic natural beauty (sea caves, limestone cliffs, azure waters) with sophisticated luxury infrastructure and 2,000 years of history as a playground for emperors and elite travelers. The island’s compact size creates intimate experiences, while its position in the Bay of Naples offers spectacular views and perfect Mediterranean climate.
How many days should I spend on Capri?
We recommend 2-3 nights minimum to fully appreciate the island. This allows time for the private boat experience, a free exploration day, and unhurried enjoyment of your luxury hotel. Many guests extend to 4-5 nights for deeper relaxation and discovery.
Is Capri suitable for families with children?
Absolutely. While Capri is renowned for romantic luxury, families find it enchanting. The boat tours delight children, swimming in crystal-clear waters creates lasting memories, and the island’s walkable size suits all ages. We can arrange family-friendly accommodations and age-appropriate activities.
Can I visit Capri as a day trip, or should I stay overnight?
While day trips are possible, they miss Capri’s magic. The island transforms after day-trippers depart—streets become peaceful, restaurants more intimate, sunsets more spectacular. Overnight stays (especially multiple nights) let you experience the authentic Capri that captivated Tiberius centuries ago.
What should I know about the Blue Grotto?
The Blue Grotto can only be accessed by small rowboats in calm conditions. Access depends on weather and sea conditions—sometimes closed in rough weather or low tide. Your private boat tour will attempt access if conditions permit, but we include other spectacular sea caves as alternatives to ensure a remarkable experience regardless.
How formal is Capri’s dress code?
Capri embraces “elegant casual”—sophisticated yet comfortable. Think flowing sundresses, linen shirts, quality sandals for daytime. Evenings call for smart casual attire (no shorts or beachwear at upscale restaurants). The island appreciates style but values comfort and authenticity over formality.
