How long is the boat tour from Salerno to Capri?

The full-day tour lasts 7 to 9 hours depending on how long you linger at Capri and the Amalfi Coast. Typical departure 8:00-8:30 AM, return 5:00-5:30 PM.

Is this tour good for cruise-ship passengers arriving in Salerno?

It's designed for it. We offer cruise-terminal pickup, flexible start times to match your port call, and guarantee return at least 60 minutes before your ship's re-boarding time. This is the best way to see both the Amalfi Coast and Capri in one shore-day.

Where does the boat depart from in Salerno?

Marina d'Arechi — Salerno's modern turistic port, just south of the main city. Easy access from the cruise terminal, train station, and central hotels. Parking available on-site.

Can I just do the Amalfi Coast without Capri from Salerno?

Yes, we offer an Amalfi Coast-only version from Salerno that spends more time on the coast (Vietri, Amalfi, Praiano, Positano) without the Capri crossing. Ask for pricing — it's a bit less.

How do I skip the Capri landing fee?

Book lunch at a Capri restaurant — dining grants automatic island access. Your captain docks at the restaurant, no separate ticket needed.

What if the weather is bad?

Safety first. If sea conditions are unsafe we offer free rescheduling or full refund. For cruise passengers, we can often adapt the itinerary to hug the coast in rougher weather.

Can we bring our own food and drinks?

Yes, you're welcome to bring anything you'd like. We provide welcome drinks and water; anything else is up to you. If you prefer we can arrange a catered lunch onboard — ask for our chef-prepared options.

What is the cancellation policy?

Free cancellation up to 48 hours before departure for a full refund. Within 48 hours we offer free rescheduling subject to availability.
