I have been bringing my friends and clients on this wonderful experience for years. Whenever we are together, without fail, the topic of Matteo and the fabulous day of boating is always re-lived and spoken about with such fondness, and such enthusiasm. It is an experience beyond memorable. It is something NOT to be missed when on the coast. Doumina

This was hands down my favorite activity we did while in Southern Italy. The yacht was AMAZING! The crew was so helpful and took the time to point out parts of the Amalfi Coast and were knowledgeable about the area. Matteo was so easy to communicate/book with!!! I highly recommends this company to anyone looking for a fun, personalized cruise around the Amalfi Coast! You will NOT regret it!!! Amanda

All I have to say is “WOW”!!! The yacht we rented was amazing, the boat crew is awesome and the Amalfi Coast sunset cruise was breathtaking! I highly recommends this company to anyone looking for a fun personalized cruise around the Amalfi Coast! Chris Savage

Private boat tour Amalfi Coast

Here are all your options for private boat tours of the Amalfi Coast with a choice of departure locations. If you're staying in a hotel or villa sul with a private jetty, you can depart directly from your accommodation!

Amalfi Coast Tour

Private tour.

Treat yourself to an unforgettable private experience along the legendary Amalfi Coast, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its beauty, integrity and thousand-year history.

The deep blue color of the sea, green mountains, lush coastline, beaches, small fishing villages, islets, fjords and inlets will be the scenery during our trip along the Coast.

The Vervece rock, the Bay of Ieranto, the Cala delle Mortelle, Marina del Cantone, Recomone and Crapolla will be some of the many places we will explore during the navigation. We suggest a stop at the Li Galli i Island, located just in front of Positano, a legendary place and today the destination of many celebrities. You have to dive into its crystal clear waters, surrounded by wild nature. According to the legend, this archipelago was inhabited by beautiful sirens (Igea, Leucosia Partenope) who, with their songs, fascinated the passing sailors, with an obvious reference to the journey of Ulysses, one of the legendary heroes of Greek mythology.

Our captain will advise you which destination visit first, taking into account the weather/sea conditions.

Positano was the place of vacation since the time of the Roman Empire. A village of many colors and many stairs that, from the top of the village, reach the sea. You will have about two hours to take a bath and / or visit the town.

Amalfi was one of the four most important maritime republics of Italy. Enjoy some free time to discover the beauty of the city.

Back on the boat, a last toast before heading to Sorrento, accompanied by the picturesque lights of the sunset!

These are just suggestions. We recommend to set everything with our captain once on board, including what to do and where to have lunch during the day.

The tour includes

• Professional skipper
• Bottle of prosecco
• Soft drinks, water & Beer
• Snorkeling equipment
• Beach Towels

Do not forget

• Swimming suit

The tour does not include

• Embarkation fee in Sorrento: €5,00 per person to be paid at the meeting point

17 BEST Amalfi Coast Boat Tours Selected by an Italian [2024]

By: Author Stefania Guglielmi

Posted on Last updated: February 9, 2024

Categories Europe , Italy

Looking for the best Amalfi Coast boat tours? Read on to find my top picks for boat tours from Sorrento, Positano, Amalfi, Naples, and Rome.

The Amalfi Coast is one of Italy’s most stunning stretches of coastline, offering breathtaking views of the Mediterranean and picturesque cliff-side villages.

I was born and raised in Bologna, Italy , and somehow never made it to the Amalfi Coast until I was in my late 20s. But when I finally did, I understood why everyone falls in love with this region of Italy! And I made it a point to explore as much as possible so I could bring you the best information about this magical region.

In my opinion, one of the best ways to experience the beauty of the area is by joining a boat tour . From exploring hidden caves and beaches to admiring the panoramic views, a boat tour along the Amalfi Coast is an unforgettable experience. You’ll get to sail along the coast, soaking up the views, and you’ll make a few stops along the way to explore by foot.

👉 Generally, boat tours depart from Sorrento, Positano, or Amalfi, but you can also look at doing a day trip with a boat tour from Naples, Salerno, and Rome .

Positano and Amalfi are two of the most popular stops on any Amalfi Coast boat tour. Positano is a colorful cliff-side town that has become synonymous with the glamour and beauty of the Amalfi Coast. Its pastel-colored houses and lively streets lined with shops and restaurants make it a perfect place to explore on foot. 

On the other hand, Amalfi is a town with a rich history and culture. It was once a maritime republic and is home to a stunning 9th-century cathedral. 

In this article, we will highlight the top Amalfi Coast boat tours , covering everything from traditional wooden boats to luxury yacht experiences. Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway or an adventurous excursion, there’s a tour for everyone on the Amalfi Coast.

👉  Why should you trust me?  I’ve been running this blog for 10 years and I’ve been traveling full-time for the last five. You can say  I’m a bit of an expert in selecting the best tours and activities  – especially when it comes to my own country of Italy.

I use and trust Get Your Guide and Viator to book tours when I travel. I especially recommend them because of their fantastic cancellation policy. If your travel plans change, you can cancel most activities up to 24 hours in advance and get a full refund.

Travel Tips for Taking an Amalfi Coast Boat Tour

• Choose the Perfect Time: The Amalfi Coast tends to be less crowded during the shoulder seasons (April to June and September to October). The weather is still warm, and you’ll avoid the summer rush.
• Dress Appropriately: Be ready to get a tad wet! Bring along a windbreaker or light jacket to protect yourself from the spray, and don’t forget your swimsuit if you plan on swimming.
• Bring Sun Protection: The Mediterranean sun is very strong. Hats, sunglasses, and a good sunscreen are must-haves.
• Stay Hydrated: It’s easy to forget about hydration when the limoncello is flowing, but no one wants to end up with heat exhaustion. Bring along bottled water to keep dehydration at bay.
• Don’t Forget Your Camera: The views are breathtaking and you’ll want to capture them, but just make sure you have a dry bag to put it in when not in use.
• Check Weather Forecasts: Sea conditions can change rapidly, so it’s always a good idea to check the weather before your tour. If it’s not looking like ideal weather, you can always contact your operator about rescheduling.
• Consider a Private Tour: If you are traveling in a group or want a more personalized experience, consider booking a private boat tour. It’ll be more expensive, but it can be quite romantic if you’re traveling with your partner or way more fun in my opinion if you have a big group of your friends going.
• Respect the Sea: Remember, you’re a guest in a natural environment. Always follow the instructions of your guide, keep the sea clean, and respect marine life. No trash should end up off the boat!

FAQ: Amalfi Coast Boat Tours

In this section, I’ll be providing some helpful information for your boat excursion around the Amalfi Coast including the average cost of a boat tour, how long the tours are, and even if you’re allowed to rent your own boat for the day!

Is a Boat Tour on the Amalfi Coast Worth It?

A boat tour of the Amalfi Coast is undoubtedly worth it. It offers a distinctive perspective of the region’s stunning beauty from its dramatic cliffs and sparkling turquoise waters to its picturesque coastal towns.

Apart from the impressive sights, many tours also include opportunities to swim or snorkel in the clear Mediterranean waters, explore captivating sea caves, or even stop at popular sites like the island of Capri.

A boat tour is a fantastic way to experience the best of what the Amalfi Coast has to offer, delivering a memorable adventure that’s well worth the investment.

How Much is a Boat Tour on the Amalfi Coast?

The cost of a boat tour on the Amalfi Coast can vary significantly depending on a variety of factors including the duration, the time of year, if food or beverages are included, and whether it’s a private or group tour. On average, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $500 per person.

I’m not going to lie to you… some luxury private tours can even exceed this range! There’s no doubting that Amalfi boat tours will cost you a pretty penny, but you can make it more affordable by choosing a group tour with fewer inclusions.

It’s also worth noting that if you do choose a tour with more inclusions, sure… it’s going to cost more, but these complimentary refreshments, snorkeling gear, or expert skipper may be the difference in your overall experience and could end up making the cost more worthwhile.

How Long is a Boat Ride to Capri from Amalfi?

The boat ride length from Amalfi to Capri can vary depending on the type of boat and the weather, but on average, it typically takes around 1 to 1.5 hours (though you will likely see estimates of between 1-3 hours).

This can stretch to 2 hours or more if the tour includes sightseeing stops along the way or the sea is rough. Therefore, it’s always a good idea to check the specific details with the tour operator when you book and follow up with them the day prior to departure.

Is it Better to See the Amalfi Coast by Car or Boat?

Seeing the Amalfi Coast by boat presents a uniquely breathtaking perspective that a car journey simply cannot offer. The undulating coastline reveals hidden coves, secluded beaches, and dramatic cliff faces only visible from the water.

Of course, you can’t spend your entire visit on a boat, but I would certainly say it’s a “piece of the puzzle” so to speak, that shouldn’t be overlooked.

A car journey also allows for spontaneous stops at charming coastal towns, local eateries, and panoramic viewpoints, providing a more intimate feel of the region’s culture and lifestyle. They allow you to be entirely on your own time and provide the flexibility that you miss on a group tour.

Ultimately, both options deliver distinct and worthwhile experiences, but do your best to get out on the water even if it’s only for an hour or two!

How Much Does a Private Boat Tour to Capri Cost?

The cost of a private boat tour to Capri can vary greatly depending on factors, but on average, a private boat tour to Capri may cost between $500 to over $1000 per group.

Luxury tours featuring larger boats, gourmet meals, or limoncello, can cost significantly more (think $2,000-$3,000 USD).

Can I Rent My Own Boat and Drive it Around the Amalfi Coast?

Yes, renting your own boat is an option for exploring the Amalfi Coast. Numerous rental agencies along the coast offer a range of boats for hire, from small motorboats to luxury yachts. No special license is required for small boats, making it an accessible choice for many visitors.

It’s an exciting way to set your own pace, explore less crowded areas, and have a personalized adventure. However, it’s imperative to keep in mind that you’ll – quite literally – be navigating unchartered waters on your own, so you’ll want to have experience with driving boats on the ocean, in narrow, busy areas with numerous other boaters and swimmers around, all while being aware of the local maritime rules to ensure everyone’s safety on the water.

Keep in mind that boat availability can be limited during peak tourist season, so booking in advance is advisable.

Pssst… if you want to enjoy Capri or Positano by consistently sipping on local beers and limoncello while baking in the hot sun all day, please join a tour and pay a skipper – don’t try to drive yourself! You’ll remove your liability and no one will have to worry about who the designated driver is going to be – everyone in your group can let loose and have fun! Sure, it’s more expensive, but it will keep everyone safe and if you split the cost between everyone in your group it can actually be quite reasonable.

I was born in Sorrento and have spent my life surrounded by the beauty of the Amalfi Coast. Not only did I grow up here, I also have a great deal of experience in many areas of tourism.  I have a degree in nautical science and work as a licensed captain, leading boat tours and water transfers from all ports of the Gulf of Naples, Amalfi and Capri.  In addition, I am a licensed driver and car tour operator and work as a guide in the Amalfi region. The thing that unites these experiences is working directly with people. I truly enjoy this work because it allows me to appreciate all of the beauty for which our country is famous--enchanted landscapes, ancient history, exceptional food and wine, warm people, rich culture and an atmosphere that cannot be found any where else in the world.  All of these things combined are what make the Amalfi Coast such a desirable destination and I absolutely love sharing them with visitors from around the world. By combining my love for my homeland with my experience in tourism I am able to offer you the best service and promise to help you plan the greatest vacation by customizing each trip to your individual desires.

The speed boat called "meteor" is much better than going to Peterhof by car - no traffic jam and going right from the city center. Good for kids. Read more Written July 2, 2021

• john m 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Appalling service, and very costly. We booked for the Swan Lake ballet on 25 December 2019, with travel date on 24 May 2020, through U Visit Russia. . Due to the Covit19 pandemic we were unable to visit Russia nor attend the ballet. Two tickets were purchased for US$465.50. U Visit Russia was advised of not being able to attend and agreed to pay a full refund but there would be a delay due to the number of cancellations. After some time no refund was forthcoming and U Visit Russia was again contacted by email and we were advised that due to the volume of cancellations the refund would be credited to our credit card within 9 weeks. Nothing and again they were contacted by email but no response was ever received. No refund was ever received. Nothing!! The lesson is to beware of ever dealing with this company.

• WesternGardener 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Where are the refunds I booked a private tour for Kamchatka with UVisit Russia for several people (40). Each person paid a deposit (through PayPal) of US$15.30. On June 22, those that first cancelled received a refund. However, I've sent email after email to this company's rep requesting refunds for 18 persons. To date, September 4, 2020, those 18 individuals have not received refunds. Not happy.

• Dmitry F 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles U Visit Russia company way to go to see Russia Great people working for U visit Russia. I had pleasure to work with Maria Nerkrasova who arranged for our group of 14 Americans to visit Sergiev Posad (u must visit that monastery). She arranged for us tour guide Svetalna in Sergiev Posad - who provided us with excellent information. We visited Matroshka factory where we meet lady who's family been doing matreshka art for over 50 years, we had fabulous lunch with Russian traditional non alcoholic molt drink - kvass at Trapeznaya restaurant. We had awesome driver Ilya who drove our group from Moscow to Sergiev Posad and back with smile and confidence. Our group of 14 visitors from US can't say enough good things about U Visit Russia. Great company, great and caring people to work with like Maria, Anna, and their guides. If you decide to utilize U Visit Russia when you in Moscow ask them to secure Svetlana to be your tour guide, when you in St. Petersburg ask for Victoria to be your tour guide. When I come back to Russia again, i will use U Visit Russia company again 100%. Thanks, D Read more Written February 28, 2020
• Scott M 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Fantastic Guide, Great Experience Today’s tour of the Kremlin, Dimond Fund and Armoury was absolutely fantastic. My guide Irina was incredibly knowledgeable full of fun facts, humour and a love of her nation it’s history and treasures. She even went out of her way to make sure that I knew the meaning behind a series of Icons in church’s and historical objects in the armoury. 100% recommend this tour. Even if it’s just to skip the 50 line to hope to get tickets at the Kremlins offices. Read more Written January 5, 2020
• 131natashal 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Do NOT purchase from this company!!!!!!! I bought a tour ticket for my daughter on her first visit to Moscow. We were asked to send over her passport information, and they even called us and demanded we send it right away (we were out and wi-fi connection was spotty). We sent it and everything seemed fine. On Thursday we got to the theatre and everyone that worked there told us the tickets were FAKE, they’d never seen anything like these, etc etc. I had to pay the tour fee (2000 rubles) AGAIN to buy ANOTHER TICKET there. Only after the tour had finished did they actually send us the PDF files that they had claimed to send earlier (which they did not). This also happened to TWO OTHER people on the same tour, they received their PDFs from Viator at the end of the tour. Save yourself 4000 rubles and the headache and just buy directly from the Bolshoi Theatre. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Read more Written November 28, 2019
