I have never been to Europe and I'm planning to spend 2 weeks in Italy for my honeymoon. We are in our early 30s and are traveling with another couple around the beginning of march. We like a little bit of everything... food, wine, history, museums, nature, culture, architecture etc. We don't like long lines, crowds, super expensive restaurants/accommodations. I've done quite a bit of research and came up with this itinerary but I'm wanting to know if more time should be spent in one place and less in another or if there are any ways I can cut back on train time. For example, we are flying into milan and out of Naples(more cost effective). I originally planned to just go straight from milan down to Cinque Terre region but I felt I couldn't leave Venice out because it is so iconic and beautiful, but honestly, it seems pretty out of the way and would take quite a bit of time. Should I skip venice and add more time in the Tuscan countryside? Or is it too amazing to miss? Also, is the amalfi coast still amazing in march or is my time better spent elsewhere? I don't care if it's warm enough to swim just warm enough to enjoy the beautiful scenery and be outdoors. Here is my rough draft itinerary, thanks for your thoughts and opinions!
