Last year, we went to Puglia and it was also pretty good. Bunch of towns, including Bari and Lecce. I think in November it'll be way too sleepy there, though.

Puglia is a great area for food.

Lots of options.

Don't let people scare you away from going to Naples.

I think a full week is too much for just Rome, personally. There's plenty to see and do but IMO by day 4-5 you're going to be experiencing a "this again?" feeling.

There’s nothing for rent in Tuscany.

If your kids are able to stay up late, do the night tour of the Colosseum. You're pretty much on your own and it includes the first floor, arena and underground.

This travel guide is incredibly helpful.

This is very cool, but keep your kids close.

Those Gladiator bastards can get a bit handsy.

The Gladiator bastards aren’t allowed to work the area anymore.

He's right. I looked, but can't get a sublet, a guest room, a cot, nothing. It's booked solid.
