Comfortably. Milan, Como and Maggiore take six or seven nights; Venice is 2 h 30 by Frecciarossa from Milan and deserves three nights. Fly into Milan and out of Venice so you never backtrack. We book the train in Business class with seat reservations and a water taxi from Venice station to your hotel. ### Is 10 days in Italy better in the north or should I add Rome and Florence? With 10 days, pick one: the north (Milan, lakes, Venice or Piedmont) or the center (Rome, Florence, Tuscany). Adding Rome to a lakes trip means two four-hour train days and two-night stops everywhere. Our expertise is the north and its link to Switzerland; for the center we can advise but usually suggest a separate trip. ### When is the best time for 10 days in northern Italy? May, June and September. The lake gardens peak in May, September has warm water and the Piedmont harvest, and Venice is manageable outside July and August. October adds white truffles in Alba but shorter days on the lakes. Avoid mid-July to late August for crowds and heat in Venice. ### What does a 10-day Italy trip cost? Roughly 3,500 to 4,800 € per person with 4\* lakefront hotels, private boats on Como and Maggiore, Frecciarossa tickets, private transfers, guided days and breakfast, flights excluded. A Venice finish with a canal-view room runs higher than a Piedmont finish. Your 48-hour proposal itemizes every inclusion.
