Summer Travel to Italy
I have only been to Italy in February and April, never during the summer. Both times we flew Alitalia.
Planning on going with my entire family this summer. (In the early stages of planning.)
Knowing the weather is extremely hot in these months, would you suggest sticking with early July or late August. Or does it not make a difference.
Thanks!

LOL, this reads like a nursing home conversation.
Where are you planning to go?
June or August...
End of July will be hotter than August
VitaAnn: WHERE in Italy are you headed? That will help with time-of-year suggestions.

It does sound funny doesn't it.
Venice- 3 nights
Florence- 3 nights
Two nights in a small town in Umbria or Tuscany, not sure which one yet.
Rome- 4 nights
Sorrento- 3 nights
Not sure if we are starting South and ending north, or starting north and ending south yet...
THanks!

Yes, depending on how many people are going, you need to get plane tickets and make hotel reservations ASAP. Or don't you need to stay in the same hotel?
And are you planning to use the trains?
I'd consider dropping the 2 nights in Tuscany and adding one each to Rome and Sorrento. (Lots to see in Rome, of course, and from Sorrento: Pompeii, the Amalfi Coast, Capri.)
Finally, I assume you're doing open jaws and flying into Venice. From which city are you leaving? Naples?
