Kawishewi - it was not clear to me if your Italy tour was by land or Sea.

If by sea, keep in mind that the city of Rome (all the sights) are a 1 hour drive from the seaport. This becomes important depending on how many days at port you have — Rome itself (in my opinion) is a 3 Day event to properly see. For example, you could blow an entire day (lines etc) at the Vatican - a must see. For Venice, you HAVE to take a gondola ride ( a must).


If you are doing italy by land, I highly recommend city to city transfer by rail (get first class tickets). Florence to Rome- Rome to Venice. Way better than a bus tour.
