Route Overview

For one week in Italy, keep the route focused. Rome, Florence and Venice offer a strong first trip without adding too many hotel changes.

  • Days 1-3: Rome
  • Days 4-5: Florence
  • Days 6-7: Venice

Days 1-3: Rome

Use Rome for ancient sights, piazzas and long dinners. Group the Colosseum and Forum together, then save Vatican City for a separate day.

Days 4-5: Florence

Florence is compact but rich. Book key museums early and leave time for walking across the river in the evening.

Days 6-7: Venice

Venice works best when you wander beyond the busiest streets. Keep one planned activity and one open block per day.
