I didn't just look it up. I've been traveling with this guy's advice for over 20 years. He knows Italy! I've been to all of the above cities and wouldn't quite put them in that order, and neither would the next 99 people you ask. After the big 3 (Venice, Florence, Rome) it's a toss-up, depending on what you like to see and do.

Forget the rental car scenario. It's complicated and expensive and there's no place to park in the cities and towns. Take the train. Fast, quiet, efficient, relatively cheap and you'll be more relaxed when you arrive.

Check these out and post a more specific question later with your likes and dislikes and I'll try to answer.
