Have posted about this before, but am now considering some rearranging. Seeking opinions about pros and cons.
original plan, more or less:
To Venice, last week of Sept. 4 nights. Have been before, particular interest this time is the Homo Faber exhibit,
Ferrara, 2 nights.
Salerno, 4 nights; use ferries to visit Amalfi Coast, train to visit Paestum.
Head towards Rome, maybe stop in Ercolano 1 night to visit ruins.
5 nights Rome.
3 nights Florence (been before, want to see Accademia, Santa Croce, San Miniato al Monte, possibly Fiesole)
2 nights Lucca (been before, want to experience more thoroughly).
Leave from Pisa airport.
New plan:
Fly to Rome, mid-Sept. Immediately take train to Salerno; 4 nights
5 nights Rome.
3 nights Florence.
3 nights Ferrara - possible day trip to Ravenna
4 nights Venice.
I think an advantage of the latter plan would be an ability to appreciate Homo Faber better, because no longer jet lagged, and maybe the exhibit wouldn’t be as crowded at that point.
Any thoughts? Thanks!
