Italy'S Golden Triangle
🛫Multi-modal: 1 rail + 6 drive days
- Full route: Rome (3 nights) → Val d'Orcia/Pienza/Montepulciano (2 nights) → Florence (2 nights) → Venice (1 night) - Car strategy: Pick up FCO, drop Florence edge garage. No car in Rome, no car in Florence, no car in Venice — sanity preserved. - Booking ahead: Colosseum timed entry, Uffizi, maybe one Brunello tasting. Everything else is walk-up friendly in shoulder season, dicey in July/August. - ZTL warning: The restricted traffic zones in Italian city centers are camera-enforced and brutal. Your hotel can register you for temporary access in some cases, but better to park outside and walk.
Route: Rome (3 nights) → Val d'Orcia/Pienza/Montepulciano (2 nights) → Florence (2 nights) → Venice (1 night)
Primary area: Italy
✅ Current month (May) is in this region's prime season. France/Italy/Spain/Greece: May-Jun & Sep-Oct ideal. Jul-Aug 35°C+ + tourist crowds + August closures.
