About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- michaelgA8237LG0 contributionsCaptain Tony and Franco made our final day in Italy incredibly special!Fernando's Boats is the BEST! We took a day trip to Capri, Positano and Nerrano (as well as some other hidden gems) with our amazing Capitan Tony, and his son/first mate Franco. It was our last day in Italy and Tony went out of his way to make the day incredibly special. He even called to book us a lunch and a dinner at his friend restaurants. One in Nerrano, one in Sorrento. We even brought our 10 month old baby on the boat, and both Tony and Franco made sure the boat was perfect for us. It was the highlight of our entire trip, and I couldn't recommend Fernando's Boats enough - but ESPECIALLY Captain Tony and Franco. They are amazing people, and we are grateful to have met them! BOOK WITH THEM and thank me later!Written 2 September 2024
- 647tobyd0 contributionsTony and Franco - amazing hosts!Tony! And Franco were absolutely fabulous and so kind! They were entirely considerate and helpful, teaching us about Capri and fun facts too! They went above and beyond recommending us restaurants and specific people/connections to help us, even further booking us a restaurant reservation at a beautiful restaurant in Sorrento! They gave us beers and Prosecco to drink (alongside offering further other drinks) and towels as well as pool floats/noodles!! There were no issues at all (no issues with payment nor the tour etc.) They were genuinely amazing and such good company too! We will miss them!Written 12 August 2024

- LaraLooLoo0 contributionsNot trustworthyIt’s so unfortunate that I have to leave this negative review. This was one of the best days of our trip and the thing we were most looking forward to. We had an amazing morning on the boat and then started on our way to capri. We were told that if we wanted to go to the main port of Capri we would have to pay an extra hundred euros but if we would eat at their friends restaurant we would not have to pay to get onto the island of Capri. While this felt a little shady to me we agreed to eat at their friends restaurant which was decent. And we took a cab ride into the main area of Capri. The worst part of this boat ride is that we were supposed to have the boat for eight hours and he returned us to the dock after seven hours. I question the time but it did not change the fact that they shorted us one hour. I complained to the booking agent who said when they spoke to Fernando, that Fernando said we asked to go back early which was a blatant lie and for this reason I would never recommend this company. He took pictures that he said he would send to us and he did not send Them to us. I’m very disappointed because it was our favorite activity and they shortchanged us and then lied about it on top of it and I’m still questioning the hundred Euros to go to capri. I get everyone washes each other’s hand but they did so in a very suspicious way and with our moneyWritten 23 September 2021
- AndreaG33820 contributionsA beautiful dayWe have just returned from a trip to Rome and Sorrento which was to celebrate our 41st Wedding Anniversary and we chose to revisit our honeymoon destinations. We packed our time but of all the activities we did, the best by far was the boat trip to Capri with Alberto. He was accompanied by his Mama and another lovely chap who did most of the descriptions of where we were etc. They were all friendly, kind, thoughtful, efficient and generally lovely people. All these attributes made for a wonderful relaxing day.Written 15 October 2020
- Photogc0 contributionsCapri day trip from SorrentoFernando’s trip was recommended by a friend of ours who said it was the best day of their trip.......... so we decided to book the boat on our trip as well. I have to say this was an amazing day trip from Sorrento and gave us just the right amount of time in Capri, going to grottos and getting the opportunity to swim in that beautiful and refreshing water. Fernando and crew were awesome and provided drinks like limoncello, beer and water. I highly recommend this boat trip.Written 3 November 2019
- sherklug0 contributionsFernando's Island of Capri Private Boat TourOur family of six adults took this boat tour around the island of Capri. It was simply amazing! Captain Fernando and his mate were so much fun and explained the sights, history, and fun facts about Capri. They took into consideration what we wanted out of our trip and made valuable suggestions to make it an awesome experience. We snorkeled, swam, went into coves, went into a waterfall, and also were dropped off on the island to eat lunch, see the sights and shop. They also provided a fun Limoncello drink and snack on the boat. It was a perfect day! Thank you so much from all of us! I wouldn't pass this up if you are going to Capri!Written 10 September 2019
- Parabroad0 contributionsDay one - CapriSimply cannot fault this trip. From the welcome at the harbour, the quality of the boat, the skipper and his mate, the knowledge, tour guidance, recommendations, jokes, these guys have the lot. Remember, you are in their country, it’s their rules. They do this every day of the week for eight months a year. Forget what you think it is they do, it’s hard work! We had a stunning day and were kept hydrated but our first mate ( beer, wine or water, coke etc). We were schooled on the way to Capri and kept informed. Lunch was simple but how they do the taste from so few ingredients amazes me. Plenty of time in Capri, a good stop off for swimming and diving from the boat and some Prosecco on the way home. A great eight or so hours spent in the sunshine!! Do it.Written 7 September 2019

- Gordon B0 contributionsGreat day outFantastic day out in the boat to Capri with a total of 12 people on boat. Bit of history given by guide and lovely boat trip swimming and snorkelling. Drinks available and limoncello as a treat. Sandwich given on Capri was tasteless and we had time to explore the island. Really recommend this tripWritten 31 July 2019
- Doych0 contributionsBest day ever!I highly recommend this Capri day tour. Captain Salvatore and Lorenzo were amazing hosts. Our day started by being picked up and driven to the marina. We were very happy with the size and quality of our boat. The day proceeded to exceed our expectations. Lorenzo recommended a fabulous restaurant in Capri. We were able to swim in the blue grotto, visit the waterfall and swim in the Princess’ pool. Lorenzo was informative and accommodating. Captain Salvatore was very skilled and was able to get us in some lovely coves. All six of the children had the best day ever! I’ve been on a private boat tour to Capri before and this was by far the best crew and boat. The value for money is surprising. Book it!Written 23 July 2019
- Badgersoutandabout0 contributionsFabulous day cruising around Capri with Fernando!We treated ourselves to a private tour around Capri with Fernando and it was an exceptional day! Fernando took us to many of the main grottos around the island (except where queues were too long), but actually just cruising around looking at the stunning coastline, and stopping to swim off the back of the boat, was the real enjoyment. Fernando was very friendly and accommodating and his boat very comfortable. Fernando arranged transport for us to and from the marina and lunch on Capri at Da Gioia restaurant right on the beach; for a 'tourist trap restaurant' the food and service were excellent. A heavenly day, grazie Fernando!Written 8 July 2019
- 761heathert0 contributionsBest day out!Our Airbnb host recommended Fernando's Boats for our day trip to Capri. Our family of 5 was on board with one other family of 6 and we all enjoyed a great day out. We thoroughly enjoyed our day trip to Capri, stopping on the way for swimming, lunch on the island and free time to explore the magnificence of Capri, drinks on board and more swimming and scenic views on the way back to Sorrento. Would definitely recommend this company for a small group, personalised tour.Written 27 June 2019

The day out on the boat to Capri from Sorrento with Luigi as our captain was truly magical. The boat is immaculately clean and felt really luxurious. As a family of four we were on the boat with two other lovely families and there was plenty of room. There is a toilet and shower on the boat and lots of sodas and beer to drink from a well-stocked fridge.
Luigi our captain was so incredibly lovely and knowledgeable and worked tirelessly all day to make sure everyone was taken care of. We stopped to swim at a beautiful spot halfway between Sorrento and Capri. There were snorkels and noodle floats to use and it was deep enough to dive off the boat.
When we arrive at Marina Piccolo in Capri we had a sandwich sitting overlooking over the beautiful beach. We then walked up to the bus station where we took a bus for 2.50 euros each to capri centre.
We were met by Luigi and taken home at 3pm racing along the Sorrento Coast. It was spectacular!

The tour was very nice and we had a very good time and Fernando and his crew are very proffessional and friendly.
I hardly recvommend to contract the services directly, because some of the agents who sell the tours charge really a lot on the real prices. We bought tickets in Pompei and we paid a lot more, but our experience with Fernando made us forget about this inconvenience.

What a trip! Please book with Fernando. He is a lovely person and so was his skipper Fernando 2! It is a well thought out tour. You start at the harbor and sail off to Capri with a stop for swimming which my kids loved. They then drop you off at a restaurant for lunch where you have a credit or can have a caprese sandwich From there you have time to see Capri (bring money for the taxi ride or bus to get to the center if you don't want to walk) On the way home more swimming and then some more grottos! We were beyond satisfied. These guys are kind and very nice to kids. You won't be disappointed

We trusted our hotel to book this for us as they highly recommended Fernandos. We had a fantastic day trip to Capri. The boat stopped at some of the most beautiful coves we’ve ever seen with the opportunity to see and swim in the most amazing green and blue waters. There’s a selection of cold beverages (soft drinks, beers, wine) included on board and also a Caprese sandwich when you arrive on Capri. You then have around 3 hours of free time to explore the island. Our host Mario was very good at entertaining the guests throughout the day in a mix of Italian and English to cater to all. Would highly recommend for a unique experience to discover hidden parts of Capri.

This was a highlight of our trip! Both Fernando and Luigi were excellent hosts/captains on our 7 hour excursion. They made sure everyone was comfortable, had drinks and got to see all the sights around Capri. It was too windy the day we went so they made sure we still got close enough to peak into some of the caves and see the magical blue water! They gave a lot of the history of the area, as well! Money well spent! Can’t wait to go back with the rest of our family and do it again. Thanks Luigi and Fernando!

Questa signora ha fatto 45 minuti di ritardo al rientro dal tempo libero in capri città, dopo aver fatto tardi anche al mattino e pretendeva che 10 persone in barca aspettassero lei e il suo compagno.
Quando hanno ricevuto il sandwich incluso nel tour che a tutti i client piace molto, lo hanno gettato con disprezzo in mano allo skipper.
Inoltre per dispetto mi ha anche commentato dei post su Instagram…palesemente per dispetto.
Noi siamo conosciuti proprio per la nostra accoglienza e dedizione al nostro lavoro…
persone così non dovrebbero viaggiare, visitare con presunzione arroganza e scostumatezza è una cosa veramente brutta sopratutto quando decidi di visitare in sharing dei luoghi e non avere rispetto degli altri passeggeri

Great day! Went on a shared excursion with 12 people and the boat was a good size, in great condition and made for a very comfortable day. Our captain, Luigi, was very knowledgeable and took us to lots of cool spots. Spent the afternoon on Capri Island where we had plenty of time to explore. We stopped twice to swim which was great as it was a warm day. I would highly recommend this day trip to anyone.

The boat trip to Capri from Sorrento with Fernando's was one of the highlights of our holiday. Both Fernando's were extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.
Capri was stunning and the swimming in the sea was a lovely experience.
We saw so much of Capri that we would not have been able to experience if we had taken the usual ferry to the island.
Music & beers on the way home to enjoy the stunning views back to sorrento.
Cannot reccomend this tour enough

Yes, but the queues are huge to go in there. Plus you also get charged by the grotto to go in there Nd then also charged to swim in there!!
The captain of this boat asked the customers on the boat for a consensus as to if we wanted to wait Nd also pay extra (not to him) we all decided not too. He then took us to white caves Nd green caves instead. A great day put.
