I think you can do Italy in 5 days, totally. You won't have time to stop in each Tuscan town, but I think you can cover all of the bases. When I studied abroad in Italy last fall, I stayed in Florence, and I made every other major city a day trip. You'll be very tired but you can sleep on the train--how often will you get to go to Italy? Live it up!
I don't know where you're arriving, but again, you can make every major city a day trip. In Milian, you have to see the Castle, check out the shops, try to get yourself on the list to see the Last Supper, etc. Then, go to Venice. gondola rides can run you 90 Euro, and up to 10 people can ride in a gondola. I only like modern art, so I only ended up going to the modern art museum there.
Next, there's Florence. Again, an art city. The Duomo and the David are must sees, and they're on the same street.
Finally, Roma. Rome I would actually give more than a day to but my friend and I saw EVERYTHING in a half a day. We were on a tight schedule but we did it. We actually had a flight to catch to Athens which is what cut our day so short.
I don't know where you want to go to in Greece, but I've been to Athens and Thessaloniki. You can find low cost flights through ryanair.com or easyjet.com to Greece from Rome (or many of the other major cities in Italy). Since we didn't book too much in advance, we ended up using Aegean Air. Of course, flying is the quickest way to get to Greece. We had a hard time finding alternative routes (i.e. train to southern Italy then ferry to Greece) that were easy and/or cheap. And if you do make it to Greece, watch out for slicksters. We ended up being swindled by every person we came in contact with. Not to generalize or anything but that was my experience.

Italy is not a small country and in 5 days you won't have time to see very much. First of all, it is not cheap. I'm assuming you will arrive in Rome. This is an amazing city. You don't want to miss the Colosseum, the Forum, the Trevi Fountain, Trastevere and Vatican City. The least expensive way to get to Greece is to take the train to Brindisi and the ferry (overnight) to Piraeus. You can get deck passage, which is the cheapest or you can get a cabin. Once you land in Piraeus you take the subway to Athens. I think you will find Greece much more affordable than Italy

From Italy by ship... from Brindisi, Ancona or Venice. So if you wish to go by sea you'd have to vacation in either of these places and of the 3 Venice is the best.... but by far the most expensive.
The ship from Venice to Patrasso costs 50 euro to stay on deck and 150 euro for a cabin. The trip from Brindisi costs much less.... I once left for Greece from Brindisi and camped out on the beaches for a few days before my ship left. It's actually a port / party town because everyone is going and coming from Greece. If you are in your 20's then you'd enjoy Brindisi more.

all of those places are stunning! In italy i might propose rome for relaxing yet for a greater community adventure the farther south the greater effective. in case you decide on north visit the coast like Pisa and as much as l. a. Spezia. London is astounding for its parks, public transportation and loose museums. in case you dont funds in on those issues dont difficulty going. be sure you reside in zone a million of london. in case you're prepared to stay in a hostel look in earl's court docket effective section north of kensington which would be low-priced yet an excellent area. you're strolling distance from kensington gardens and hyde park as properly as good buying in extreme highway kensington.
