Revel in the glories of the chic Island of Capri on this tour that offers a choice between taking a chairlift for spectacular vistas or a visit to a superb villa that has become an intriguing museum. Relax during a brief but scenic cruise on a jetfoil across the Gulf of Naples and watch the outline of the dazzling Island of Capri appear before you. Once on land, you’ll drive up a winding road to the village of Anacapri, where you may opt to take an exhilarating ride on a chairlift up 1,884-foot Monte Solaro for simply breathtaking views of the turquoise bay, your legs dangling freely in the air.
Alternatively, join your guide for a tour of famed Villa San Michele. You’ll learn that this wonderful old house, surrounded by fragrant gardens, belonged to a Swedish doctor and author named Axel Munthe, who wrote a celebrated book about its history. Within the villa, now a museum, you’ll study a wide-ranging collection of paintings, furniture and ancient Roman artifacts. Relish time on your own to explore Anacapri’s piazzetta, shop or enjoy a delicious lunch. As you return to Naples on your jetfoil, bid a fond arrivederci to utterly divine Capri.
