You step off the cruise shuttle and into the pulse of Naples: a piazza dominated by a wide fountain, scooter horns weaving through a scent of espresso and frying dough. Your private guide waits with a sign; within minutes you are moving into the old city where stone streets tilt toward the bay and Vesuvius watches from across the water.
