Rome–Florence–Venice in a week is the classic for a reason — the trains make it easy.
The itinerary
Days 1–3: Rome (Colosseum, Vatican, Trastevere). Days 4–5: Florence (Uffizi, Duomo, day trip to Pisa). Days 6–7: Venice (St. Mark's, gondola splurge, get lost on purpose).
Budget note: $2,000 covers flights from the US East Coast (shoulder season), trains, 3-star hotels, and trattoria meals — not peak summer.
Pro tips
Shoulder season (Apr–May, Sep–Oct) halves prices
Book Vatican and Uffizi timed entries early
Trains: book Frecciarossa in advance for discounts
