I planned out most of our vacation last summer, made several changes along the way, then I went back to work and have been crazy busy and just left the final plans hanging.
Now that we’re trying to get all the details sorted out, one thing I’m having trouble deciding on is our 5 nights in Rome. Too much to do and not enough days!
Day 1 - We’re staying at Albergo del Senato so thought we’d visit the Pantheon, Spanish Steps, walk around whatever is near our hotel and go out for a nice dinner.
Day 2 - We have a private tour of the Colosseum, forum and Palatine Hill
Day 3 - Private tour of the Vatican and Sistine Chapel
Day 4 - Thinking about doing a wine tour to Tuscany. Sounds nice to have a relaxing day after 2 days doing a lot of walking.
Day 5 - day trip to Florence or stay in Rome? I’d love to visit Florence but are there any must sees in Rome we would have to miss to do this? Also, isn’t Florence where they make the nice, leather bags? I’d like to purchase a purse, belt, and perhaps gloves while we’re there.
The tours days 2 and 3 are in the morning. What would be a good to do in the evenings?
When should we fit in the Trevi Fountain? Super early before our tours on day 2 or 3, or one evening?
Day 6 - Joe Bananas is picking us up at our hotel early to take us to Pompeii for a 2 hour guided tour, then off to our hotel in Amalfi.
