Late reply in this ghost town... No car needed for Venice. You boat or walk everywhere as there are no streets. In October I would go as far south as possible. Naples and Venice will be more expensive, but if you want t see the cool touristy stuff, that is where you need to go. I have always wanted to go to the Isle of Capri. You can take a ferry from Naples. Where are you flying from? |

PM me I currently live 1 hour form Venice and have (her)family in Naples so I might could give you a few tips. $550 is a great deal for a round trip. October is a perfect time of the year to come here, the weather is perfect. Lots of beautiful places close to Venice. The Dolomite Mountains (Pre-Alps) are 1.5 hours away by car or train. How many days are you thinking you will have to spare. |
| Right now, there are flights available from New York to Milan for ~$350 round trip, with dates available from August to December. If you're interested, PM me ASAP and I'll send you the link. |

And you can fly round trip from Milan to Nuremberg for about $40 on RyanAir. That means round trip Detroit to Nuremberg for under $600, which still ain't bad. And, a lot of that expense is getting from Grand Rapids to NYC. If you can come up with a cheaper way of doing that (it's only a 12 hour drive), you're in business. |

Just a heads up. I’ve been around Italy pretty extensively with friends and family and we are pretty much in agreement that Naples and Venice aren’t places you should spend most of your time. Both are pretty dirty places. Hit the highlights like Pompeii, the canals, etc and go. We did the train one time from Rome up to Florence, then to Milan, then into Switzerland. Stayed in Interlacken and went to the top of the Jungfrau. That was a great trip. Stay however long in each stop. Florence was our all-time favorite place in Italy. You can make day trips to Pissa and all the tower towns. Of course Rome is a week by itself. |
