ourselves. Flew into Venice. Got the water taxi tix and saved ourselves a lot of walking that way. Took train from there to Rome, you can do the hop on hop off there and not have to walk a lot. Got the passes to skip line at Vatican. Took a day trip through Naples to Pompeii and back to Rome, by train. Then took train to Florence. Took a day trip with a company by bus around Tuscany (San Gimigiano, Siena, Pisa, had lunch and wine at a vineyard, took another day in Florence.) Then to Milan, just for the night, and took a train through French Alps to Paris, then flight home. Takes a little of your own legwork before you leave the States, but can do things on own schedule and save money.
