Capri
Fast facts: Famous, picture-perfect Italian island in the Bay of Naples. Buzzing with tourists during the day; Italian chic at night. A must-see.

Don't miss: Standing out on deck as the ferry approaches the island, ordering a 'Salata Incaprese' on a harborside terrace at Marina Grande, walking up to the main town, paying way too much for a Coke Light on the town square, watching the rich & famous.
