Heads Up
- 1. Book museum and major ruin entries ahead where timed access matters
- 2. choose stays with parking whenever possible
- 3. in Rome, Florence, Venice, and Verona, park once and walk
- 4. avoid adding "just one more stop" on long driving days, because this route works best when each day has one big moment
- 5. Day 3: 7h30 driving — plan rest stops
