Free time in Anacapri lets you choose between Villa San Michele, the chairlift up Mount Solaro, or exploring the town center on your own.Is it for me?Book the group tour if you want a guide who knows the island's history and mythology and prefer sharing the cost with other travelers; choose the private tour if you'd rather set your own pace through Anacapri and Capri town without a fixed group schedule.
