Italian Cities that you've listed in order of value to tourists.
1. Rome - worth the trip all by itself.
2. Florence - I'd go back to Italy just to visit Florence again
3. Venus - There's no place like it in the world.
4. Naples - don't miss Pompeii
5. Amalfi Coast - good beaches and scenery
6. Pisa - a great university and a funky tower nothing else.
7. Verona - a lovely city whose claim to fame is a balcony that is reported to be the one used by two people who never existed.

1: Rome, I went there week ago you have to see the Colosseum, Trevii Fountain, and The Roman Forum.

#2: Venice, I went there too I saw Lido, Murano and St. Marco Square they are all amazing!

#3: Florence, tons of history there the Mona Lisa was painted there, check out Leonardo's Workshop!

#4: Pisa, the Leaning Tower of course!

#5: Pompeii, was buried under ash from the historic volcano Mount Vesuvius.

Hope that helped

Venice - go to St Marks Basillica - its amazing!! (Venice is VERY expensive though, cup of coffee can cost up to 10-15 Euros each in the main square!!)

Rome - Collesseum, Trevvy Fountain

Florence - Check out the Duomo, you can't miss it!

Naples - Would suggest taking a day trip to see Pompeii or Herculanium. Also nearby Sorrento is very nice, and a boat trip to the Blue Cave in Capri is worth a visit.

Pisa - Obviously the Leaning Tower!

Can't help with Verona or Amalfi unfortunately. Hope this helps though. Have a good trip!

If I were you, I'd totally go to Rome, Florence, Venice and the Amalfi Coast. I live in Italy and these are some of the most beautiful cities you could visit in this country. The Amalfi coast is amazing...usually tourists go to Cinque Terre (which are up north), while this part of the Italian coast is left to the locals. I've just had an American girl and an Australian boy staying at my house and I told them to go there...after visiting the Amalfi coast they LOVED Italy. And this is the best period to go there, since you can see all the citrus trees on the cliffs. It's really gorgeous.
Well, Rome is Rome and you couldn't go back home from Italy without visiting it. The center of the city is stunning...and if you are from America, you won't believe there can be all those old monuments and Roman ruins in just one city.
Venice with its canals is worth a visit, and tourists always seem to like the city a lot...although it's not one of my favourites!
Then, Florence. I love it, it's just so full of art, if you're interested in the subject it's even better than Rome! People who live in Florence speak with an interesting and lovely accent...and they're really friendly.
You wouldn't like to see Naples right now, it's not at its best...and it's a bit chaotic, beautiful, but different, so if I were you I'd go there on my second trip to Italy! Same with Pisa, which is great, but not that much compared to the other cities. And same with Verona. I'd keep those options for the next trip! And I'd add Turin to the list.
Enjoy!

Don't overnight in Pisa, It is a quick one hour train ride from Florence with trains going every half hour or hour. Once you see the tower & surrounding area you are done. You can't spend enough time in Florence or Rome

OH! I sooooo badly want to go to Rome!!!!!
There used to be a website that I found that was like "Rome in a day" and with in 24 hrs you'd see it all. But ya it got me excited to see things like
the colosseum
spanish steps
trevi fountain
vatican city

You could skip Pisa, and get off the train in Verona as early as possible and spend a day there and be able to see a lot. Get the Verona Pass for like 7 euros and a map and see the attractions on the pass. and then go on to Venezia on an evening train. When you go to Napoli, take a day and go along the Amalfi coast.

just make sure you see the leaning tower of pizza.. you will not believe it.

Hi, I'm Italian.
I live near venice, another beautiful city to visit is "Treviso".. it's about 20 km from venice

Don't bother with naples. very dirty and unpleasant!!

Definately go to Florence :) it is magical and has so much culture in a concetrated area.

Pisa is overrated DONT BOTHER.... but if u really want to see the leaning tower, make it a day trip while staying in florence... theyre fairly close.

Rome is a must. YOU HAVE TO GO!!! :) it is amazing . while youre there go to St. Peter's basillica it is absolutely astonishing!

The amalfi coast is beautiful, try sorrento ( a wonderful little coatal town on the coast, that is fairly close to pompeii which is really interesting and is a must-see.

Try Venice as well, much culture there and is a beautiful place to stay :)

have fun in italia :)
