but Florence and Siena are just as much or even more "in between" than Milan and FAR better places to visit than Milan

Siena may be awesome, but it's significantly out of the way for my trip

For SAN MARINO, I will be in Rimini. There is basically a straight line of high speed rail connecting Rimini to Bologna and Milan. From Milan, you can get to Monaco most directly via Genoa.

Genoa is gritty and urban. If you like that kind of thing go spend a day there walking through the maze of the old city and eating pesto and those anise cookies the nuns make. If you like fancier shit go to Milan instead and shop and eat a nice dinner by the canals.

This itinerary is kind of shitty and seems shrewy. Who tf cares about San Marino? Looks like you're racking up country visits.

Id stick to bologna maybe Verona. Pisa is a dump but you sound like a shrew so go get your selfie. Lucca is really lovely on the way to Pisa.

I actually find Turin interesting but Genoa is a typical Port dump. Nothing in Milan either.

Milan is probably best of those four cities if you have to choose. It can't compare to Florence/Venice/Rome but it's really nice and it feels more like a real modern city that people live in rather than a museum. If you go, get tickets to see Leonardo's Last Supper mural in advance (will likely have to be as part of some kind of tour), because you probably won't be able to get them on the day.

Also, why are you so focused on taking trains? You'd have way more fun if you rented a car. And why Monaco - there's nothing to do there except drink a $15 Heineken while looking at parked yachts. They don't even give you free drinks in the casino. The best thing to do in Monaco is leave to either France or Italy.

Monaco is nothing special and if you're going anytime soon it will be dead. Unless you're already going to be near San Marino, there's no real reason to visit. It seems like it's an afternoon at most to see.

breh, I am a shrew who cares about the number of countries I've been to. I've already been to Italy once before (Rome/Florence/Naples) and if I go back to Italy, it's gotta include San Marino and Monaco so I can at least say I've picked up additional countries on the trip.

I don't do international travel unless my country count increases.

You can base in Bologna which has some tourist stuff and good restaurants, rent a car to drive to San Marino for the day and fly out of BLQ (prob via FCO) to NCE and go from there to Monaco by train. Why not just go to a few more interesting Euro countries you haven't seen yet? I am going to Kosovo, San Marino, Malta and Andorra on a quick trip between NY and Paris. Can share itin if you're interested.

It's by far the easiest way to get from Bologna to San Marino, otherwise you have to take a combo of trains and buses. You could always hire a driver if wife won't let you drivemo it.

If pressed for time, I'd skip Milan and go here instead:

You obsession with counting countries is TTT and pointless. You’d have a much better time if you weren’t an autist.
