Appreciate all the input everyone.
The only guided tour we will be doing is with a family friend the first day in Tone. She's gonna show us the Vatican. Other than that I'm planning everything out and avoiding tours, unless there is a must-do one.

We're in Rome now and much of our trip is similar to yours. If you're not claustrophobic and this kind of stuff interests you, then look into the excavations tour beneath St. Peter's Basillica. It was incredible.

If you really are anti-tour, then the only one that I would recommend is the one in Florence. I'm a history and an art history nerd. And I got some good info out of it. And my wife doesn't give two shits about doing any research on her own ahead of time. So, she got a lot out of it.... in addition to all of the perks that go along with walking through a new city with an insider. So, totally worth it.
But the real benefit of a tour is being able to skip the lines. That's invaluable to me.
This is the one I would recommend. I don't know them or get anything out of it. They were just awesome, and I got to skip every line, and walked right passed the 2 hour wait and walked right up to the David.

I think we paid 360 Euro for the two of us for the full day. Half day was about half that.
Tickets to museums were 15 Euro per person per place.
And... I'm serious about the Grappa man. If you bring some back, I'll make it worth your effort.
