    City of Alanya

    Posted by Markostravel 23 February 2009

    This is about 1.5 hour drive from Antalya and it is a beautiful city and not as crowed. It has great beaches.

    Fly to Antalya and take a bus there or rent a car

    Sultan-ahmet Area

    Posted by Markostravel 23 February 2009

    I have lived in Istanbul for 14 months. The Sultan-ahmet area is the best for tourism and it is the location of the old city of Byzantium. It is also where you can find the St. Sophia Museum, Blue Mosque and Topkai Surai (Ottoman Place).

    Any taxi can take you there

    Homebridge House

    Posted by MrsZang 15 January 2009

    Homebridge House is a lovely B&B situated about two miles outside Wareham on the way to Dorchester. It is very close to Corfe Castle, Lulworth Cove and Durdle Dor, the Tank Museum and Monkey world.

    Anita, the owner, is really lovely and helpful, the rooms are tastefully decorated - classic and modern - with comfy beds and mod cons, the breakfasts are made with local produce or are homemade (e.g. Jam, bread) or home grown (e.g. tomatoes) with proper coffee, and the views out the back are really lovely (fields, deer and woods).

    Thoroughly recommended for a long or short stay, although you'd need a car to get there (plenty of parking).

    Bellini Exhibition

    Posted by ohdearmen 17 December 2008

    One of the greatest Italian painters. The exhibition is unmissable. Bellini is a master and innovative artist, though not as popular as Michelangelo or Raphael.

    Apartments Palazzo Olivia

    Posted by ohdearmen 17 December 2008

    The flood in Rome was scary and exciting at the same time. (I can say that now the worst is over). We spent it in a rented apartment from Palazzo Olivia for our family Italian break ... they are so nice. I was worried about going out, but received necessary directions and reassurance during our stay. Comfortable accommodation, great service, great location as usual. On this particular occasion, close enough to the river to "monitor" and far enough to feel safe. Worth a visit.

    Christmas in Rome

    Posted by Sissi 16 December 2008

    Spending Christmas in such a metropolitan area like Rome is really wonderful. Italy has a very romantic feel to it with its cobbled pavements, cozy cafes and historic landmarks. The Colosseum looks even better during the festive period, with a beautifully adorned tree that sits on its doorstep. There are also plenty of other things to see during this time of year besides the landmarks, including choirs, Christmas markets (like in the Piazza Navona) and Catholic mass on Christmas Eve. Just a wonderful time of the year to be in Italy.

    Ghost & Mystery Walking Tour of Rome

    Posted by Sissi 16 December 2008

    This tour will take you down paths less trodden and provide you with a different outlook on Rome and its superb landmarks. The tour is taken at night and, as mystery and your imagination take over, the guide will provide an entertaining side to the capital that you are not likely to get during the day. Particular landmarks explored include the Corso Vittorio Emanuele II and the beautiful Campo de Fiori. This is a really cool way to explore this magnificent city, especially if you have children.
