The Best Italian Destinations

admin — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 13:24:45 +0000

Thinking about a trip to Italy and sick of wasting your vacation days lying on a beach, soaking up dangerous UV rays? Check out Milan (to see Da Vinci’s Last Supper masterpiece) or Rome (to see its many historical and religious landmarks) and you will have enough to do to keep you busy for as many vacation days as you’re willing to take!

Head to Milan’s Santa Maria delle Grazie church to see Da Vinci’s Last Supper for yourself. There is something magical about witnessing the famous painting of the Last Supper in its authenticity. However, tickets for the Last Supper are limited and with the publication of Dan Brown’s best-seller, The Da Vinci Code, in 2003, there is now increasing desire for Last Supper tickets. It is best to buy Last Supper tickets in advance to ensure that you don’t miss out on Da Vinci’s masterpiece.

If you’ve never been to Rome, then you haven’t seen one of the most beautiful, historically rich, significant places in the world. Not only is Rome home to historical structures like Chiesa Nuova Church and the Colosseum, it is also very modernized. In one visit to Rome, you can uncover thousands of years of history on a crypts and catacombs tour and take a tour based on Dan Brown’s bestseller, Angels and Demons. Rome hop on hop off sightseeing tours offer a comprehensive tour of Rome, allowing you to disembark the bus at your leisure at any of the over 15 stops. One thing is certain: there are tons of sights to see in Rome and a hop on hop off Rome bus tour will show you all of Rome’s highlights.

Foreign Currency Direct Launches Property Line a New Overseas Property Portal

admin — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 08:36:19 +0000

Foreign Currency Direct, the leading UK currency broker, has launched a new overseas property portal for UK buyers looking overseas. The portal is at www.Propertyline.co.uk and is part of the Eataz Network, with traffic of over 300,000 users per month and 17,000 properties around the world already online.

Unlike most property portals on the web today, Propertyline also has the unique attraction of combining private sellers, agents and developers from multiple countries, and connecting them with buyers across the world. There is also a Property Hunt facility – simply fill in details of your ideal purchase abroad and we can put you in touch with sellers directly according to your preferences.

If you’re buying in France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Dubai, the USA or almost anywhere in the world, we’ll help you find your ideal property today.

In addition, property agents can take advantage of free advertising across the network, by vitrue of a partnership with FCD for currency referrals for their clients. This has already proved successful with many agents reporting a good volume of quality enquiries, at no incremental cost to them and with no commission to pay on sales.

Robin Haynes, FCD Director responsible for the Propertyline project, said: “Foreign Currency Direct is the only UK currency broker committed to adding value to agents’ businesses by providing genuine property enquiries to enhance the sales process. The resulting property portal site is in turn a useful tool for UK citizens looking at overseas purchases – meaning we can help them find their dream home and then save them money with the currency transfers too.”
