What We Left Out

We intentionally skipped these popular options:

✗Rushed Uffizi group tours — 30 people with headphones sprinting past masterpieces
✗Tourist trap restaurants near the Duomo — Overpriced pasta and zero atmosphere
✗Generic "Tuscany in a Day" bus tours — 50 people, 5 wineries, no romance
✗Overcrowded Accademia Gallery visits — Michelangelo's David deserves more than a rushed selfie
