The island of Capri, located in the Bay of Naples, draws millions of visitors a year, many staying for just a few hours to visit the famous grottos. Arriving at the workaday port area is just the first part of your journey. A ride in one of the island's signature convertible taxis will take you closer to your hotel, either in the town of Capri on top of one of the island's two hills or Anacapri on the other. The rest of the journey will involve some walking or using a porter service with a smaller vehicle. The narrow lanes and steps of the town aren't car-friendly! The main reasons to stay on Capri are the views from your hotel room balcony or terrace and to enjoy the atmosphere in the evening after the crowds have left, which is what makes Capri a honeymooners' favorite.

You could choose to enjoy a drink and a snack at one of the cafés overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, such as Capri Garden Bar or Capri Rooftop, with their magical views at sunset.

Caprese Eating
Once you're in Capri, we suggest taking a walk in the city center; proceed to the Piazzetta (Piazza Umberto I) and explore the surrounding area and alleys, enjoying the beautiful views. Stop at one of the many bars for a glass of Prosecco or another aperitif, and then enjoy some local delicacies in one of the local restaurants.
Local delicacies to try are Ravioli caprese, Scialatielli (a fresh ribbon pasta often served with seafood or sautéed vegetables), Spaghetti alla Nerano, Pezzogna (red seabream), Saraghi (banded seabream), Dentici (dentex), octopus or totani (a type of calamari). For dessert, Torta caprese, a local chocolate and almond cake, is a perfect choice, paired with some limoncello.
Anacapri's Scents and Scenic Gardens
The quiet town of Anacapri is an ideal retreat from busy Capri if you're looking for a laid-back, authentic place. Town life here has remained authentic despite the island's tourism. Tucked between the houses, lush tropical plants surround tiny, humble vegetable gardens. A walk around the center of Anacapri will take you past quaint Neapolitan tailor shops and artisan shoemakers as ladies sit outside in the shade, working on their knitting while exchanging gossip and talking about the news. Here, you will enjoy what it truly means to live in Capri, all with the scent of the town's lemon groves permeating the air.

To call Naples rough around the edges would be quite the understatement. Yet amidst the chaos and beneath the grime is one of Italy's true gems. It's the third-largest city in the country, home to over three million people. An important port city for all the civilizations that have existed there, Naples is the original melting pot. Founded as Neapolis (literally "new city") by the Greeks in the 7th century B.C., Naples has many layers of history for you to discover.
