Just booked a trip to Italy

I just booked a trip to Italy for 11 days!! I'm staying 3 in Rome, 3 in Florence, and 3 in Venice. The other two days are really traveling days. I'm going at the end of March next year for a great price. The weather will be high 50's low 60's, so it will be like here during that time of the year.

So what are the must things to do besides the obvious tourist attractions? Any restaurants that you thought were great?

Thanks guys.

Take full advantage of Venice. Amongst my biggest regrets. Also get ready to see some of the most beautiful women in the world. Pray you get lucky as it's not easy.

Trattoria "Melo" .. 00187 Roma.. walking distance from Trevi fountain.. Local small quaint place with great food.. Lots of tourist traps ask locals where to eat.. Or hire a tour guide for a day not expensive and you will not be disappointed.. They will show you where to eat and make for a nice day.. Horse drawn buggy ride through Rome at night (did it woth every penny)is also a nice way to see the city.. Beware pickpockets everywhere and they are good .. A few on our trip got fleeced and more frisked.. Vatican was unreal. ozzed money.. Would not want to drive downtown either..
