i was in Rome last september and think you need minimum 3-4 days to see everything comfortably. My advise? Carefull when you cross the streets,keep a map in your back pocket every-day,and expect to do a lot of walking.Youll have a blast im hoping to go back soon.

Hey Dave, I'm Croatian and I go to Croatia every single summer. I live in Toronto and I plan on moving there for good in a couple of years if everything works out as I planned.
If I was you I would visit Dubrovnik for a day, then drive two and a half hours north to Makarska (amazing beaches and hot hot broads) and stay there a day.
Next hop on the ferry and go to island Brac or Hvar. I visited both of these islands a couple of times and I like Hvar the most. Hvar was rated top ten most beautiful islands in the world by the Conde Nast Traveller magazine last year. From Hvar you can take a ferry to Split and stay there for a day and from Split you can take the ferry to Venice. It's much better taking ferries than driving.
Enjoy your trip and you will definitely want to come back to visit again. I do every year.

So to give everyone an update.
I'm heading to Europe Sept 5th
Here is my schedule thus far.
Fly into Dubrovnik, stay there for 3 nights then drive to Split. Stay in Split 1 night then drive to Venice. From Venice we drop off the car and take a train to Florence. Stay 2 nights in Florence, one day in the city and one day we drive to Pisa and wine region. From Florence take train to Rome. Stay in Rome 3 nights and explore the heck at of the city. From Rome fly to Mardrid for 3 nights then fly to Barcelona for 4 nights then fly to Amsterdam for the Webmaster Access show.
25 days total trip.
thoughts? one heck of a Euro trip huh?Comment

Hey Dave, Split is not worth staying more than an hour in. Don't focus too much on the bigger places, islands and smaller places are much more enjoyable in Croatia. Really, consider taking the one-hour ferry from Split to Supetar (on island Brac) or Hvar and stay for a night or two, it's really worth it. Cut your time in Dubrovnik. It's a nice city but I'd rather spend the days in pristine Brac than moving in a crowd in a terribly HOT city.
Venice is of course a big tourist item but the number of tourists will be insane in summer. I like Florence and Rome, the latter really has a special charm and atmosphere.
Have fun!Comment

And indeed, some Italians are loud and arrogant, but it's no reason not to visit that beautiful country!Comment

Dave I took a bus myself from Zadar to Dubrovnik, which took LONG because it stopped just about everywhere. Michelin calculates the trip to Venice at about 11 hours, they're usually well on the spot.

Dubrovnik is beautiful indeed. I guess you'll have a good chance to rent a car at the airport, but I don't really have an idea. Check out the websites of the bigger car rental companies, there should be a few.
Enjoy!Comment

Well there are plenty of beautiful places along the Adriatic coast. If you don't make it to Brac or Hvar, at least don't stop in Split but look for an attractive smaller place along the coast, perhaps a little further up north in Istria. I'd buy a Rough Guide of Europe if I were you, it helps.Comment

Hi dave you could also go to north to Zagreb and Varazdin to expirience village tourism.It is even better then sea part.For example i strongly suggest to visit national parks Krka and Plitvicka jezera ( http://www.np-plitvicka-jezera.hr/ ) .
When you finish those to you can go to Zagreb then to Varazdin and go to Ljubljana or Beograd.Comment

Plitvice is nice... I don't think he'll have time for it though.Comment

The trip is very long, but I am covering 3 countries so tough to hit every place.
Dubrovnik is the place I choose to spend most of the time, the rest will be driving north to Italy. I will consider not going to split and staying at some village along the way.Comment

Your original plan was good If i were you i'd not waste time with Belgrade if you are already planning to spend time at Dubrovnik and Zagreb, try to hit up Milan, and Rome though Italy can be pretty hostile towards the ol Americans but i'm sure you are ok because when i say americans i mean the sleazy dream type (even his own country men are hostile towards him)
You will love it have a good time if you got any questions hit me up
