Itinerary help - Rome, Tuscany (agriturismo), Cinque Terre

Posted by (Tampa, FL) on

Here is my estimated itinerary (pasted from excel). I am having a difficult time determining where to sleep and for how many days. Rome 2 or 3 nights; Tuscany (Agriturismo) 2-5 nights, depending if it is a home base for trips to Cinque Terre or we sleep in Cinque Terre; sleep in Cinque Terre for two nights? Also, where to stay in Tuscany? We were thinking Montepulciano, but if we go to Cinque Terre, maybe it is more wise to be closer to that area? If we had one more day it seems it would feel less rushed, but we don’t. Thanks!

I'm assuming your train/car is telling about your methods of transport on that day.....

Many people say get to a town/city in Tuscany and THEN rent a car, it is usually a bit less chaotic (and less autostrada driving) than doing it from Rome.

A 2 night stay means only one full day in a place, Rome deserves more than that for sure.

Thanks Katherine. We arrive in Rome at 9:30AM and stay 3 nights, so we will have 3 mostly full days (yet probably a bit jet lagged ;). Actually, I made a mistake in my post. We will take a train from Rome to Florence and rent a car there before heading to the Heart of Tuscany. The train is only about 1.5 hours.
