Useful Tips
If you have more time, you may want to consider adding Tuscany and Amalfi Coast to your itinerary. If you have less time, you may want to skip Dolomites and Lake Garda for a more compact itinerary. Always check the weather before hiking and pack accordingly. Most museums are closed on Monday in Italy, so adjust your itinerary accordingly.
