Capri funicular. Stations and connection. Opening hours, tickets

Capri funicular

Inaugurated in 1907, although already in operation two years earlier, the Capri Funicular is a historic vehicle that connects Marina Grande (the port) and the town of Capri, in the center of the island.

Since the year of its birth, the Capri Funicular has met with great consensus, becoming a real social phenomenon. But, above all, it has supplanted the old transport on the back of mules, used before its birth.

The two cars have always kept their red color, which contrasts with the green vegetation of the route.

Over the decades, the funicular has undergone numerous recovery and modernization interventions, especially in terms of safety, adopting the latest technologies. The last update, in chronological order, was in 2018. Thanks to it, it was possible to increase the capacity in the car by about 20%.

Despite this, in the high season, an impressive line of tourists eagerly awaits their turn, for hundreds and hundreds of meters. A wait that for many becomes really exhausting.
