Florence - Explore Florence. Venice - Catch train (2 hours 10 minutes) to Venice. Venice - Explore Venice. London - Fly to London from Venice. |
This looks reasonable too, but I would say that you haven't allocated enough time to Venice. I'd take a night away from both CT and Florence and add them to Venice. My own taste only, I'm sure others will disagree.

I think you are giving Venice short shrift - and probably have too much time in the CT - unless you have a real need to hike back and forth between these tiny villages.
Venice is unique and has a huge amount to see/do and I would add at least one day there. |
I would spend some time in Naples to visit the wonderful archeological museum, especially as you'll be going to Pompeii.
Agree with the above comments on Venice - add a day. |
I would replace 5Terre by Sardinia:
Ferry Barcelona - Porto Torres 3 days in Sardinia Ferry Cagliari - Naples |
What time of year? That may dictate whether you want to cut out CT and add time elsewhere, such as Venice.
|
Thank you so much for your replies everyone! Shall be in May/June at this stage if that helps?
I have not even considered Sardinia! Shall do some further reading |
