Can you help organize a boat trip in Capri to swim in the Blue Grotto?

Unfortunately, we cannot organize any changes within this tour. However, there is some flexibility to adapt the itinerary according to weather, special events and group wishes. These changes can only be made during the tour as a request made to your tour leader, so no guarantees can be made. If this is something you are wanting to do before or after the tour you will need to make your own arrangements, as we cannot organize anything outside of the tour.

I was wondering what hand picked accommodation meant- do the travelers choose or the tour guide?

Hand picked accommodation means our team have gone out and explore all the different options and have picked the best suited accommodation for the trip - majority of our stays are boutique style loaded with character and local charm so you can gain the full experience from our trips.
