I've been researching our options for getting around Italy. With a group of

our size we can reserve private transfers for about $30 more than train travel, and use the transit time to stop and explore different cities along the way. This isn't an "all or nothing" option, we can choose private transfers for some areas and train travel in others, whatever people prefer. I also propose taking the "Hop on Hop off" tours in Florence and Rome (especially Rome) since we have such a short time to explore these cities these tours are a great way to see a lot without worrying about finding our way around.
