Predefinito First Trip to Italy

Hi!

My husband and I have just booked our first trip to Italy for July 2006. We
are spending 3 nights in Rome, 3 nights in Florence, and 3 nights in Venice.
We know we want to take a tour of the Vatican Museum while in Rome. In
Florence we want to take some side trips to wineries. In Venice I
definitely want to go the Murano Glass factory.

Any advice or recommendations for things to do, private tour operators,
restaurants, etc. would be appreciated. We will not have a car...we are
using Eurostar to get between the cities.

Thanks,
Patty

Just be aware that on Murano there are *many* glass factories. And 10*
that number of glass shops.

You're not spending much time in any of these places. Should be no problem
finding things to do. Get some guidebooks from the library to get ideas.

Personally, I would spend 4 nights in Rome, 3 in Florence and 2 in
Venice. Venice is very nice, but more expensive and smaller, with
less to see than Rome. Rome is, after all, Rome.

Especially in Florence and Venice, to see the museums, make your
reservations ahead of time over the internet - then when you get
there, you can walk past the incredibly long lines of tourists waiting
to get in who spend all afternoon waiting in line, and you walk up to
the side entrance at the appointed time and walk right in. MUCH
better way to do it.

Also - if you're hikers, consider the Cinque Terra - there are 5
little villages clinging to the steep coastline and there's a hiking
path between them. It's an all-day hike, but it's well worth it.
