THE DAY-BY-DAY GUIDE TO THE HIGHLIGHTS OF ITALY - ROME, FLORENCE, VENICE, & MORE 🇮🇹 I've been fortunate enough to visit Italy multiple times and even more fortunate to have been guided by true Italian friends. Here, I take all that I've learned from those travels and distill it into one perfect itinerary that hits the big highlights. This itinerary is a great fit for first-timers since it'll take you to the absolute must-see spots in Italy. You certainly won't see all the boot has to offer (just plan on coming back for future trips, plural, to make that happen), but you'll see the most iconic places at a reasonable, enjoyable pace. You'll be able to soak up all the history, food, wine, and dolce vita these cities have to offer. After this first taste, you'll be dying to come back for more! 🗺️ Main Itinerary Stops: - Rome | 2 full days / 3 nights - Orvieto | Pit stop - Tuscany // Montalcino | 2 full days / 3 nights - Siena | Pit stop - Florence | 2 full days / 3 nights - Tivoli | Pit stop - Rome | Overnight for return flight 🗺️ Optional Extension Stops: - Pisa | Day trip (+ extra night in Florence) - Bologna | Pit stop - Venice | 2 full days / 3 nights - Modena | 1 full day / 1 night here or nearby
