Hello - My husband and I are heading to Italy in the first part of October for 11 nights. Below is our initial itinerary. Currently, we're wondering if we should skip the Dolomites and spend more time in Tuscany or if we should add Lake Como at in the end in place of the Dolomites since it's near Milan. Not sure if we are try to squeeze in too much or if this is doable as is. We enjoy scenery, architecture and exploring areas, as well as wine;-) Would appreciate any feedback and/or recommendations.
Thurs AM - Arrive Milan take train straight to Venice for 3 nights
Sunday AM - Depart Venice via train to Verona for 2 nights
Tuesday AM - Depart Verona via car for Dolomites for 2 nights
Thursday AM - Depart Dolomites via car for Siena/Tuscany for 3 nights (Siena as base)
Friday - Explore Siena
Saturday/Sunday Day - Visit a couple of hilltowns near Siena
Sunday evening depart via car for Milan
Monday AM - Depart Milan for home
Thanks,
Kate
