Florence is one of my favorite cities in the world
So many people have said that. What are people’s favorite things to do, see, visit, etc…? I’m fitting Florence into this trip one way or another. If it means flying out on Sunday instead of Monday so that we have 2.5 days there then so be it

I'll second what everyone is saying and try to fly into Florence and spend time there.
There's no way you can make it to Sorrento/Amalfi coast and back in 36 hours and have any kind of enjoyable experience.
You could also take a day trip and visit somewhere like Orvieto or potentially even make it up to Assisi or Perugia. Those are relatively short train rides from Rome. That would be doable in 2 days.

So, you have all the tourist things (Uffizi, Accadamia, etc, etc), and they are awesome and shouldn’t be missed. But when I say it’s one of my favorite cities, it’s because of the vibe. The architecture, the food, the culture, etc. It’s just an awesome city to experience, even outside of the postcard sites.

Another vote for Florence. You could hit Duomo or the statue of David but honestly enjoyed just walking around the most. Ponte Vecchio at night was fun to stop by. There was a guy playing music and a crowd gathered around singing along. Naples is only worth it for the pizza and you don't really have time to hit Amalfi or Capri. If you can't fly into Florence the train is a quick and solid experience. The train is the one thing in Italy you can count on being prompt.
