If all you have is 7 days it does not rate at all. As a matter of facts, even your 3 destinations itinerary looks too much to me. Your first and last day will be more or less spent in arriving and leaving, therefore you will have a bare 5 days, which I would spend in Florence (3 days), venice (1 day) and travelling between the two (1 day).

Good afternoon, Don Alice has some very<BR>good points in not using Bologna as a<BR>home base for visits to other places.<BR>Rail from Florence to Venice is just <BR>under 3 hrs. If you remain in Bologna<BR>it would be 1hr45mins. to Venice....<BR>and trains run from 0940 to 2140 about<BR>9 trains about every hour or two... From Bologna to Firenze would be 1hr and<BR>trains (20),run from 0630 to 2248 mostly on the hour.<BR>Lastly there is only one non-stop from<BR>Bologna to Como and that is the Cisalpino that leaves Bologna at 1757 and arrives in Como SG at 1946.. There<BR>about 30 trains in a day thru Bologna to<BR>Como SG taking about 3hr30min. Which would make this a 7 hour trip and would<BR>not consider it... If you have not picked your hotel in Bologna, check out<BR>the Hotel ROMA, have throughly enjoyed<BR>the hotel and the area in which it is<BR>located. If you need a couple of ristorante recommendations, please write. Richard of LaGrange Park, Il..<BR>the hour<BR>the hour which makes this a viable trip.<BR>
