Hydrofoil to Capri
Does anyone have information about the hydrofoil from Naples to Capri. The only thing that I could find was Sorrento to Capri running twice a day at 8;30 and 2:30. Am I wrong in assuming there is a hydrofoil from Naples? Our cruise ship docks in Naples. <BR> <BR>I'm trying to work out if we we can do the day on our own. I want to go to Hercualeneum and then Capri. <BR> <BR>How long does the hydrofoil take and what is the cost? <BR> <BR>Anyone know? <BR> <BR>

Thanks Steve <BR>I had found that website but everytime I clicked on the pages I needed, it says "page not available" <BR>The other timetable and prices I found were from 1998! <BR> <BR>BTW Love Bath. Although my husband is still recovering from sticker shock at prices for Sally Lunn's buns (and that was 2 years ago)

Two different companies offer <BR>hydrofoil service from Naples to <BR>Capri. If I remember correctly one <BR>leaves every hour or so. The ride <BR>takes around 45 minutes. <BR>Can't remember the cost but it couldn't <BR>have been more than $15 US or so. <BR>I don't think you need to worry about <BR>tickets in advance, although I went <BR>last April where it was not quite tourist season yet. <BR> <BR>I think it would be tough to do both <BR>Hercualeneum and Capri on the same day. <BR>If I had to choose between the two I'd <BR>go with Hercualeneum, Capri is nice <BR>but it is packed with tourists during the day. But if you were able to stay <BR>overnight in Capri, I'd definitely recommend it. <BR>

Hey Lisa - I just tried it again and I had no problem. Try this:- <BR> <BR>1. www.capri.net <BR>2. Click on 'English Version' <BR>3. Click on 'Transportation' in top left column <BR>4. Click on 'Select the Way' arrow <BR> (-gives you a choice of routes) <BR>5. Click on 'Napoli-Capri' <BR>6. Click on 'Select' <BR> <BR>You should get a timetable of all crossings on that route! (Aliscafo-Jet, ferries ... and prices). <BR> <BR>Let me know your planned crossing times if it won't come up for you and I'll post them... <BR> <BR>Buon Viaggio! <BR> <BR>Steve <BR> <BR>P.S. Glad you liked Bath! Sally Lunn Buns are outrageous, aren't they? (I much prefer the 'San Francisco Fudge Factory' nearby. Can't resist!!) <BR>
