The island of Capri is so beautiful and unique that it has been attracting tourists since the reign of Augustus around 31BC. Today, the island is known for attracting celebrities because of its idyllic coastline, swish hotels and opulent boutiques and restaurants. On this walking tour, you will be met by your private guide and begin at the Piazza Umberto I, the very heart of Capri. Ringed by elegant cafes, this is a great place for a spot of celeb spotting, before we continue. On the tour, you’ll learn all about the history of the island during the reign of the Emperor Tiberius, as well as the discovery of the Blue Grotto in the 19th century. The walking tour will also take you past the renowned Faraglioni, the three rocks that you’ll find featured on almost every postcard of the island. It’s not hard to see why everyone from DH Lawrence and George Bernard Shaw to Graham Greene and even Lenin came to revel in the unique beauty of this island.
