My husband and I are going to be in Italy for 5 nights at the end of our 2 1/2 week vacation. We start in London and meet up with our college son and stay 4 nights. Then 3 nights in Paris. We then fly to Milan and meet up with friends and drive to Ascona, Switzerland for 4 nights. Once we drive back to Milan, our son and friends go home. We fly out of London 6 days later. Looking for suggestions in Italy to fill those days. We have been to Rome, Sorrento, Florence and Venice before. I love the countryside but need to end up in a big city in order to fly back to London. Should we head towards Florence or Venice?

Try Genova and explore some of the surronding cities on the coast of Liguria, known as the Italian riviera. Some nice places are Cinque Terre and Portofino.
