Hello Italy forum! My husband and I are planning a trip to Italy in May. It will be my first time in the country but he has been before and has seen many of the sights. The only new place for him will be the coast. I started to block off an itinerary for our trip. I would love some feedback on our planned schedule. I would also love feedback on the plans I have outlined here for transit between places and if anyone has any recommendations for private car/driver services. We are in our early 30s and will be coming from the East coast of USA. We will not be able to extend the trip any more days than this.
My priorities for this trip are seeing one big sights but also having time to just relax and enjoy the vibe. I definitely want to experience the coast but that is thee part of the trip that is currently stressing me out the mos and giving me the most pause. I am also worried about rushing around from place to place and can’t tell if the timeline I have built will feel like that or not. It is difficult to balance everything we want to do with the time we have. Looking forward to hearing everyone’s thoughts- thanks!
