Day-by-Day Itinerary

Tue June 16 — Depart SNA

Wed June 17 — Paris Arrival + Seine Dinner

Watch-out: Do not add a major museum or Eiffel Tower summit if tired.

Thu June 18 — Paris E-Bike Tour + Dinner Hold

Does Carlene's date work? Yes. This is a good first-full-day activity because it is guided, outdoors, and gives broad Paris orientation. Keep afternoon flexible rather than museum-heavy.

Fri June 19 — Paris by Mouth West Saint-Germain Food Tour + Le Grand Colbert

Pacing: Good. The food tour ends at 1:30 PM, leaving a clean afternoon buffer before Le Grand Colbert at 8:00 PM. Treat the tour as lunch and keep the afternoon light.

Sat June 20 — Paris → Venice + Antiche Carampane

Sun June 21 — Venice Leisure + Al Covo

Mon June 22 — Venice → Lake Como + La Darsena

Tue June 23 — Lake Como Leisure + Bellagio Dinner

Note: Honey is a separate confirmed booking/cost and not part of Carlene's $9,990 quote.

Wed June 24 — Lake Como Leisure Day

Thu June 25 — Lake Como → Rome + Armando Target

Rule: No major touring after arrival.

Fri June 26 — Rome Golf-Cart Tour + Cooking + Roscioli

Rome touring decision

Recommendation: Keep Ancient Rome/Colosseum dropped. Book the lighter golf-cart tour direct with enough hotel reset time before 4:00 PM cooking.

Sat June 27 — LivTours Private Vatican Tour + Flexible Rome Evening

Line/access note: First-entry/private format should materially reduce crowd friction, but security/reserved-entry lines may still apply. Bring official ID and follow Vatican dress code: shoulders and knees covered.

Sun June 28 — Rome → Capri + Da Paolino

Mon June 29 — La Capannina + Lido del Faro

Tue June 30 — Capri Private Boat + La Zagara

Wed July 1 — Capri → Naples → Rome Cardo

Thu July 2 — FCO Departure
