bologna or padua...?
 

if you had 2 days between florence and venice, would you spend them in bologna or padua?

An extra day in Florence and Venice.

I agree with the above advice if you are spending anything less than 4 or 5 days in Venezia and Firenze. But if you do have the extra days, I would pick Bologna, since Padova can be done as a pleasant day trip from Venezia.

yes, we are spending 4 days in florence and 3 in venice...
thanks
i think we'll check out bologna

Hello onourway, I too would chose Bologna, but as nessundorma said, a daytrip to Padua would be enjoyable.

grazie!

i am very grateful for all the tips i've gotten here to my many posts.
