Question

My friends and i want to go to Italy next weekend. We want to visit Rome,Naples,Milan and Pisa. Since the trip is only a week,we want to make the most out of it. What are the places considered as a must?

Answer 1

Have to go to the Vatican and visit the Sistine Chapel, St Peter,Colosseum,Piazza Navona, Fountain di Trevi and the Spanish Steps. So much to see in Rome.

Venice, St Mark&#039;s Square, a gondola ride, Doge Palace

Milan go to the Milan Galleria and visit the opera house.

Pisa...not much to see but the Leaning Tower of Pisa

Have a blast so much to see and not so much time to do it all. Lots of Churches

Answer 2

If you are going all the way to Pisa (only the tower there)you might as well see some other things in Tuscany too. Check out http://www.verrazzano.com/...We had the best time there. Awesome wine. Chianti Riserva e buon! Definitely go to Florence and check out the Duomo, etc.

For Naples, the museum, catacombs (very cool and lots of history....way back to the time of Greeks!), Pompeii and Ercolanium, Caserta Palace, eat Pizza anywhere downtown! Best pizza is in Naples! Do not eat pizza anywhere else in Italy....you will be disappointed... ask the server for a recommendation. :)

I haven&#039;t made it to Rome yet....

Going to Venice on the 23rd....

Haven&#039;t been to Milan either....

Answer 3

There are sights to see in Naples but the beauty of it is south along the Amalfi coast and the islands of Capri and Ischia. Not sure how much you will enjoy the Naples area in the winter though. As far as Rome is concerned, you could spend two weeks in Rome and not see it all but with only a week...well, see the following...Coloseum, Victor Emanuele momument (just down the Blvd from the Coloseum)..between the two is the Foro Antico - Antique Rome...from the Victor Emanuel monument go down Via Del Corso - at Piazza Colonna hang a left towards the Pantheon...back to Via del Corso go up a bit more to Via Condotti - straight ahead are the Spanish Steps...from there grab a cab to the Vatican...there will be lines and security check points - if you have time go to the Vatican Museum and see the Sistine Chapel...these are the highlights of Rome.

From Rome go to Florence - you can either change trains and go to Pisa or stay in Florence for a night or two and take a day trip to Pisa by bus or train. Pisa will take a few hours - the tower, the Baptistry and the museum off the square. My family is from Milano - it is a great city but often overlooked - see the Duomo (main cathedral), go thru the galleria to the Via Manzoni where the Scala opera house is located. Hop a bus or tram to Castel Sforza...great museums in Milano - best bet is to ask the hotel for a map in each city you go to - the maps will have details of sights. Remember you will do a lot of walking....bring comfortable shoes...but hold on to passport and wallet!...Have fun...Ciao!

Most of the suggestions given by other folks are good. Back them up with the oficial tourism website of Italy and have look at the pictures and decriptions.

If you want to save money and time, make sure your accommodation is centrally located ( save time and transport costs ) and offers the best deals. Dig behind these directory pages and see what&#039;s on offer at what prices:

btw - i added Pisa, next to Florence and a must see. Also, try to use the train or drive outside of daytime and peak commuter time. Most of your trips look like 2-5 hours max. Some would sleep on the train, but you&#039;ll wake up wanting a shower pretty quickly, so best to do it cheaply, but in style.

Happy urgent planning:

Answer 5

Rome: The Colisseum and The Roman Forum, which is right next to the Colisseum; San Pietro and The Musei Vaticani (The Vatican Museums); there are tons of other things to see in Rome, too, depending on how much time you have and what your interests are, you should look around online or buy a travel guide.

Naples: The Archaeological Museum (Museo Archaeologico di Napoli), and Pompeii and/or Herculaneum...if you have less time Herculaneum is a lot smaller, closer to the city (actually part of the city was built on top of it), and better preserved.  Pompeii has been mostly ransacked; there are many more intact houses in one area in Herculaneum and many more wall frescoes are still there, as opposed to cut out and shipped to museums around the world like the ones from Pompeii.  In Pompeii you&#039;d have to walk for hours to see as much as you can see in an hour in Herculaneum; Herculaneum is less famous and that&#039;s sad because I actually liked it better than Pompeii--although if you have the time, you should see both!

I&#039;ve mostly just seen the train station in Milan, so I can&#039;t tell you much about it.

As far as I can remember, the only thing to do in Pisa is to see The Leaning Tower (and you can go up on it, so that&#039;s fun), but that&#039;s like, half a day&#039;s outing, tops, including travel time.  If that leaves you with more time in the other cities, that&#039;s great, but if you were planning to spend more time in Pisa, I would recommend spending the time in Florence instead.  Florence has a beautiful Duomo (the main cathedral), Michelangelo&#039;s David, and the Uffizi (an art museum that houses some of the most beautiful and important works of art in the world).  Florence also has a huge outdoor leather market, if you like to shop.
