thanks everyone. i agree 5-6 cities sounds like too much. Now we might do a few days in Paris then a cruise out of Genoa that stops in Sicily, South of France, Malta, and ends in Rome. Any thoughts on a cruise?

I have taken a similar cruise. Had a wonderful time on it but I have to say that a cruise is not my favorite way to experience Europe because you don’t spend enough time in port. This is especially true if you want to have dinners in great restaurants which is very important to me when I travel.

Staying on land is much better. You get more of the local vibe going to eat in cafes and restaurants during the evening.
Try flying into Milan, stay 2 nights.
Train down to Florence and stay 4 nights. Catch Tuscany with some day trips and do the city.
Train down to Orvieto for lunch and a couple of hours checking out the town.
Then hop the mid afternoon train to Rome for three nights.
Fly out of Rome as they have a train directly into the airport from downtown.
The trains bring you right into the downtown of each city and you can usually walk to your hotel.
The high speed train will get you between each city in about 2 hours.
