Hi Everyone,
This is our first post and we are looking forward to some of the fantastic feedback I have read on this forum. My wife and I will be embarking on our first trip to Europe in September and Italy is the first country on our Bucket List. We have 1 night in Milan, 2 in Venice, 5 in Florence, 5 Rome, 3 Naples then finish with a 4 night relax in Sperlonga.
Our plan for Florence thus far is as follows.
Arrive from Venice Early to mid Afternoon and look to do an evening cycle tour to orientate ourselves around the old city. We are staying in a little B&B near the Santa Maria Novella Station so the next day we are thinking of wandering through the streets of the old city ourselves and taking in the sounds and sights at our own pace. We would fit in a visit to the Accadimea during this day as well.
The following day we are looking at an organised tour to Cinque Terre. Any recommendations for tour providers would be appreciated.
A day trip to Pisa and Lucca the following day. Suggestions Bus or train and in which order?
A day trip to Siena. Once again Bus or train and must see sights?
We were thinking of leaving mid to late afternoon for a 5-6 arrival in Rome so any suggestions of how to fill in 3-4 hrs that morning would be great. Checking out early and leaving our luggage in storage wont be a problem.
Thanks for reading our post and we look forward to any comments.
Ciao![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
