There's a lot to see in Italy. If you intend to travel from city to city then trains are the best option. They're inexpensive and very good. Here's a few places you could include and some attractions.
Milan - The Refrectory of Santa Maria del Grazie to see The Last Supper (Tickets in advance)
Venice - Saint Mark's Square, The Doge's Palace, Rialto bridge, Bridge of Sighs, Arsenal, The Accademia, Giacomo Cassanova's house, The Grand Canal and Murano.
Rome - Vatican Museums which include the Sistine Chapel, St Peter's Basillica, Castel Saint Angelo, Forum, Colosseum, Palatine, Circus Maximus, Via Appia, Gallery Borghese, Capitoline Museums, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, Pantheon and many many churches.
Florence - Uffizi Gallery (tickets in advance), Accademia (Michelangelo's David is there, Bargello, Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio and the Loggia with its sculpture, various churches and family chapels, Palazzo Pitti, Fort Belvedere.
Naples- Pompeii, Herculanium.
Padua, Verona, the lakes, the Dolomites etc etc.
I can only list a few things here or I'd be going on for days
If you're pushed for time then train travel in Italy is very cheep and efficient.
Great guide books are the Eyewitness Travel Guides. They have photos, every attraction you can think of, opening times and great maps.
Take a look at these web sites and enjoy your trip.
