you have it wrong, firenze(florence) is a MUST, one day? i say fck it to naples. Our honeymoon (last year same time as you) we did venice/florence/rome/positano-naples. For the last leg of our trip positano-naples we had a beautiful shore/beach in positano spent a few hours at the ruins (pompeii) and just relaxed on our beach a day (we spent the rest of the 18days dashing like mad in venice/florence/rom). for our positano-naples leg end, we hired a guide, not because we're lazy but from research we need a car to travel and this guy brought us everywhere, with our research (we had another couple come with us, it was our honeymoon their vacation and they planned it ALL!, it was great) we said fck you to naples, and the guide even said, fck naples it's just as bad as harlem. You'll have 1 good street and then one fck'd up mug you fast street in naples. (i had pizza every other day in italy, i grew up in ny so... i know pizza) he took us to pizzeria da Michele, the stupid ass place in eat pray love (there was another but we were too far), and that was some SHIT pizza.
Rome/Pizza
speaking of pizza, the only pizza i found good (and i tell you i ate every other day) was in rome

it's a pizza store with a mustache, staff is rude, but fck it, it's great pizza. (they get 4/5 stars cuz staff is rude, who the fck cares?)
quick tip for rome and food, goto dinner BEFORE 6:30, you'll find a seat. Past 7pm, your waiting in line for 2hours. I always did dinner at 6:30-7 and NEVER waited. After we ate dinner, i would leave the restaurants and ppl would be waiting for a while! with long lines.
collesseum, we only found out about this after... there's a secret tour that you can take you have to pay like weeks in advance and they'll take you through the underground and the dungeons, google it and get that!
wine:
i'm not a wine guy, i'm allergic to alcohol, so i don't care but the ppl i went with cared, we took wine tours at the positano/(whereever the fck tower of pisa is) cuz they said that wine from there is vastly different and nicer cuz of the volcanic ground... again i barely drank it, and wouldn't be able to tell you otherwise.
venice:
say fck you to the gondola, really it is shit, you pay 90bucks? for a 30-40ish minute ride and the water smells like sewer. Those assholes don't sing, they don't do anything but paddle that stupid oar. Romantic? only if you're an idiot, but we HAD to go just because so we can say we did, and i regretted it, no one cared for it.
if you don't like to walk, don't go, the BEST PART of venice is that there are no cars, not a single fcking car anywhere, it's all sidewalk. Remember to buy a mask in venice, you'll know what i'm talking about, masks in venice are BETTER and CHEAPER than florance or Rome.
