Have you found your beach destination this summer? Sure, you could be in Miami, Bondi Beach in Australia, Copacabana in Brazil, Bali in Indonesia, or Goa in India. But, those who have more budgets would find themselves enjoying the beautiful Amalfi Coast in Italy during the season.
Want to get from your posh accommodation to your destination there? Uber cars are nice, but they cannot justify the beauty of the location. For such a spectacular place, wouldn’t it be more appropriate if you’d ride boats and helicopters? “GTA” at its finest. The action, right?
Uber has got you covered. Recently, Uber announced that it is offering private, round-trip getaways to Capri by helicopter and luxury cruises along the Amalfi Coast. Yes, book not your Uber car, but your Uber helicopters and boats.
Beautiful Italy
“At Uber, we strive to help our customers go anywhere, wherever they are traveling,” said Anabel Diaz, Uber’s EMEA Mobility executive. “Italy is fast becoming one of our most popular tourist destinations, with travelers turning to the Uber app to help make their holiday travel stress-free. This summer, we’re adding a series of unforgettable experiences that will make traveling by land, sea, or air more magical than ever before.”
Italy is home to several landmarks, such as Venice, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Colosseum, Florence, Milan, and so much more. But, for the adventurer and outdoorsy person, they’d want to visit Capri, otherwise known as the Amalfi Coast.
Wish granted, care of Uber. Uber’s helicopters let you pre-book private helicopter transfers between Sorrento and Capri directly via the Uber app.
Once booked, your exclusive helipad will take you to Capri from Sorrento, and you don’t need to worry about safety because it is a dual-engine and dual-pilot helicopter.
Meanwhile, wishing to experience the Amalfi Coast’s iconic blue waters? There’s also the magic of the Uber Boat, offering seamless and sophisticated ways to discover the vicinity with private charters that could accommodate up to 12 people.
So, call your family and friends so you could all enjoy this pretty place.
The boat sails from Sorrento Marina, as your cruse for four hours along the coastline in a stylish Italian Gozzo 35 boat. It really will feel like you’re a character in “The Man from U.N.C.L.E.” Each boat trip also has its own personal skipper, as well as complimentary snacks and drinks.
But, here’s the catch
Starting June 25th, Uber Copters and Boats will be available to book via the Uber app from anywhere in Italy.
But there’s a catch. First, the helicopter will cost a whopping around $288 per person. Plus, the availability of the Uber helicopters and boats are very limited and are subject to weather conditions. So, there’s a possibility that trips may be canceled. Uber Copter trips between Sorrento and Capri will cost €1,500, with a maximum capacity of six people. Nonetheless an incredible experience.
