Overview
This Overview summarizes a focused 7–10 day trip that highlights history, art, and food across three major centers: Rome, Venice, and Florence. Use the Top Cities section to decide which city to prioritize and consult the Suggested Itinerary if you prefer a day-by-day plan.
Top Cities
The Top Cities listed here each offer distinct experiences: imperial antiquity in Rome, waterways and Gothic-Byzantine architecture in Venice, and Renaissance art in Florence.
Rome
In Rome, prioritize the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, and the Palatine Hill in the mornings when crowds are thinner. Reserve a timed-entry ticket for the Vatican Museums and allow time to view the Sistine Chapel. Evenings are ideal in Trastevere for trattorie and neighborhood streetside dining.
Venice
In Venice, ride a vaporetto along the Grand Canal at sunset, visit St. Mark’s Basilica and the Doge’s Palace, and allow a morning for the quieter lanes of Dorsoduro and the Accademia’s collection. Take a vaporetto or gondola to experience the lagoon’s character.
Florence
In Florence, climb the Duomo’s cupola for city views, book tickets for the Uffizi Gallery to see Botticelli and Leonardo works, and cross the Ponte Vecchio toward Oltrarno for artisan workshops and sunset views.
