Remarkable grottoes, secret caverns and emperors’ retreats, so many have answered Capri’s glamour call and many more continue to do the same. Emperor Augustus and Tiberius both built for themselves temples of indulgence here, followed by modern society’s glitterati alike posing in and out of its impossibly blue water. While hanging out like royalty may seem like what most go there for, the island’s rugged terrain does provide other more active and scenic pursuits as well. Whether you choose to idle your time in one of the world’s most famous resort towns, or seek to discover a unique piece of Capri all for yourself, a customised Capri tour package from Chan Brothers Travel Private Tours guarantees to send you straight to sweet heaven.
Swimmingly well at Blue Grotto
Capri’s most famous sight is the Blue Grotto and for holidaymakers seeking a more luxurious experience of this unmissable highlight, a private boat charter is the preferred way for your Blue Grotto visit to go swimmingly well. Private access to your own boat guarantees exclusive service, an expert crew and a multilingual skipper that speaks your language. Lounge on the massive sundeck of your boat, request to lunch at a sea-edge restaurant and go swimming in the Blue Grotto while the more common travellers get herded in and out in quick succession.
Beach time
If you like the idea of idling on a beach with views of the conical peaks of Faraglioni, then the gorgeous bay beaches of Marina Piccola will not disappoint. Take a book and your sunglasses and bathe under the warm sun rays while catching glimpses of Capri’s giant sea stacks any time you wish. For a more luxurious experience, choose to spend your beach time quota on one of the private beach clubs where the only thing distracting you and the beauty of Capri is your own contented reflection in the sparkling sea.
Above Capri
Anacapri (literally meaning above Capri) is the other commune of this island where life is a little more normal, and not in a bad way. After the ritz and glitz of indulging yourself in the spoils of Capri’s luxury, take a chairlift to Mount Solaro, the highest point in the island, for an overview of all the colours, scents and sounds. Then, spend your day spoiling yourself with an indulgence of another kind – the authentic local life and culture which remains unspoilt despite the island’s tourism pull. Stroll through tailor shops, artisan shoemakers, lush gardens and end your day sharing a piece of charming Capri with the locals sitting under the shades of bright lemon trees.
