My husband and I have finally decided on those three places. I cant see us doing more than a half day of the main tourist highlights in venice and rome. Any thoughts on an itinerary? We can fly into Venice or Rome.
Your post: "I cant see us doing more than a half day of the main tourist highlights in venice and rome."That's a rare statement on this forum. Perhaps you don't mean you're thinking of only giving Rome part of a day and Venice part of a day?If you could clarify that, it would help us advise you.It would be difficult to even list things to be done in Rome if you only gave it half a day.If it helps as a benchmark for you to compare your trip to those of others--if you give Rome only half a day, you're giving Rome less time than about 95% or 98% of travelers reporting on this forum. Same for Venice, the average time given Venice, by travelers here, is about 2 nights.It's your trip, not ours. We're just trying to clarify what your question is and what your objectives are, so we can give the most useful advice.
