So much to see. Pisa and Venice are two places I didn’t care much for but Rome

Wasn't that impressed with Venice either but everyone feels it's a place you need at least once.

Pisa is a great place to stop for 5 mins on your way between Tuscany and Cinque

There's a tour out of Florence that is an all day tour. It's fantastic

If it is your first time, some mix of Rome, Florence, and Venice.
