Private boat tour of the Amalfi coast or Capri
Best for: Travelers who want a private boat and the ability to choose between the Amalfi Coast route or a Capri route
This is the most flexible option in the set because it is built around private use of the boat and two different route styles. One version follows the Amalfi Coast and can board from Salerno or several listed coastal towns, while the Capri version adds a longer island-focused outing with a stop at Li Galli and a full circuit around Capri. The inclusions are more specific than the others, with aperitif items, water, and snorkeling equipment listed. It also allows for a more personalized day, including the possibility of stopping at a restaurant along the coast if chosen.

How to choose the right Salerno boat tour style
Pick the private custom-style tour if you want the most control over route and boarding point, and choose the longer coast cruise if comfort and a slower pace matter more. The Salerno-departure tour is the clearest fit for travelers who want a straightforward start near the cruise terminal with a strong list of onboard amenities.
Amalfi Coast or Capri
Choose the Amalfi Coast route for a coastal village-focused day, or the Capri option for an island circuit with swimming and cave viewing.
Amalfi Coast
This is a coast-focused cruise with several scenic village and landmark views rather than a second destination like Capri.
Amalfi Coast from Salerno
This is a coast cruise with multiple village and scenic-stop highlights rather than a Capri-focused itinerary.
