What you can expect

Hike to the top of Capri island in Capri - 2218dbc8f5b207224b464229b2748420

This hike begins at the town center of Anacapri, with the path starting just 5 minutes away. The trail starts steeply for the first 5 minutes before becoming gentler, transitioning from cement to a dirt path with loose stones and rocks. The initial views overlook Anacapri town and the Bay of Naples, with Ischia and Procida islands visible in the distance.

After about 20 minutes, the trail levels out for another 10 minutes, leading to the stunning "Cetrella's Valley" on the southern side of the island. From here, enjoy panoramic views of the Faraglioni rocks, Marina Piccola Bay, and Capri town center—some of the finest views on Capri.

Continuing on, after 30 more minutes of walking, you'll reach the upper station of the chairlift at the summit of Monte Solaro. Here, facilities like toilets and a bar are available. After taking in more panoramas and resting, you can choose to walk back (35 minutes) or take a 14-minute chairlift ride back to Anacapri town.

The tour concludes back at the starting point in Anacapri town center.

Constantino was great! He is a 3rd generation Capri resident and I believe his grandfather started the first travel agency in Capri. Constantino lives on Capri so we really got an insider's view into the beautiful island. We were there on 12/4 when most of the stores/restaurants were closed but it was still beautiful, interesting and informative. Constantino designed a walking tour of the island and provided interesting details and history. It was great to almost have the island to ourselves! We would definitely look for opportunities to book other tours with Constantino when we return to Italy. Nothing beats a private, customized tour with a local. Thank you Constantino for an excellent time!Great time in Capri with Constantino!

We were looking forward to a tour in Capri. Due to the weather we were able to get to-the island. I let Costantino know as soon as the ferry was canceled, that morning. His calendar did not allow us to reschedule. I was willing to take a 50% refund but Costantino was not willing to do so since “Withlocals” takes a big chuck of the $200 fee. I would not recommend booking with them since ferries don’t always run from Positano due to weather. Poor customer satisfaction. No partial refund for weather

Costantino gave us an excellent tour of Capri Town. It’s amazing how so much history is in the town and Costantino shared all his vast knowledge to bring the history of the town alive. Well worth it! Costantino was wonderful!

Travel issues on our end required upfront accommodation from our guide, Costantino, and he adjusted plans to allow us a full experience. He is knowledgeable and kind and led us through a well-organized and perfectly paced tour of Capri and the palace ruins. His good humor and wealth of knowledge on botanicals added to the full depth of understanding the times of Augustus and Tiberius.All we hoped it would be and more!

We had a lovely time walking Capri with Costantino. It makes a difference when you explore a city with someone who already lives there and loves it so much. It was a very personable tour, and he even catered to our changing schedule and hiccups we had in getting around the island. I\u2019m already looking forward to returning!Excellent time with Costantino!

Constantino is simply amazing! His family has lived in Capri for generations which gives him a deep understanding of the island and its rich history. We only had a day in Capri so it was the perfect tour to give us the highlights. We traveled backstreets that tourists would never know to go. He gave us shopping recommendations for local artisans, the few that are left on the island. And we finished our tour with a lunch recommendation overlooking the city. 10/10 - highly recommend!

The 2 hour lenght of tour was perfec to give us the lay of the land in Capri. Costantino was extremely friendly and knew his stuff about the island. His tour helped us enjoy our stay even more as we got a great sense of the island and it's culture before deciding how to enjoy the rest of our time there.Great way to see Capri
