Rome is a beautiful but chaotic city. Thousands of tourists walk its streets, visit its hundreds of attractions, museums, monuments, restaurants and different cultural sites where they learn about its history and society. Getting around the city with public transport, at least in principle, can be a little bit complicated because the city is truly immense. One of the best options to get around quickly is to simply call a taxi company and, in Rome, one of the best is undoubtedly 3570. The company has over 3500 vehicles in the Italian capital, making it in the biggest not only in Italy but in the whole of Europe. The company was born in 1958 with the aim of taking its clients quickly to their destination at an affordable price. But as well as the classic taxis, you can also hire special vehicle services which cost a bit more money but which will give a more impressive service, such as cars with WiFi or television. If you want to get to know a beautiful place, you just have to rent apartments in Rome and enjoy this beautiful...

This summer it´s been the grandparents golden wedding anniversary and they want to celebrate it as its due. As it always happens in the family, they´ve come to me to organize the trip. They already know what I like the most, especially when it´s a special occasion like this one. A piece of advice given to me by an experienced traveller was that everything should be prepared well in advance, and that´s what I do. From home and comfortably, I checked out all the options and I ended up deciding upon Amsterdam, an ideal place to travel with the family. I did it all online, comfortably and relaxed, from the booking of the flight tickets and the apartments in Amsterdam (beautiful, actually) to our small and singular fleet of cars (at Taxi-Bus Schiphol, highly recommended), which took us from the airport to our accommodation for a week. Booking transport from the airport was one of the best ideas I´ve had (together with the apartments because, with so many people, it was the only way to get organized), because we didn´t have to queue for a taxi, we had no surprises in the fare and everything booked in advance. They were waiting for us practically next to the runway and they took us comfortably to the centre where the apartments were for the whole...

Guided tours are an essential way of getting to know any city when you have little time, or when you´re with a group of people. At Walk Inside Venice they organize guided tours for all tastes, for small groups of up to ten people by foot and, sometimes, even taking a gondola to finish off the tour. On its webpage, decorated with some beautiful and gobsmacking photographs of the city, they have a map of it (in the image) which shows us the different points of the different routes that you can book. The guided tours, together with the taxi-vaporettos (also mentioned in this guide), the apartments in Venice the flight tickets or the tickets for the palaces full of works of art from past centuries, can be comfortably booked online from home. You just have to choose the itinerary and the map will light up with the different landmarks on the route. The price is agreed beforehand, so you don´t have any unwelcome surprises at the last minute. Any comment on Walk Inside Venice or any other service in this guide, is welcome.

Going on holiday is one of the most beautiful things in life because it allows us to get to know different cultures, museums, history, walking with loved ones and having a good time that will be remembered for the rest of our life. Rome, without doubt, is one of the most beautiful European cities to visit. But many times the body doesn´t help and, for different reasons, we have to go to a pharmacy to buy the medicines, make consultations or ask for advice. The thing is that many times, these problems don´t arise at the best of times, and most of the pharmacies are closed by then. Because of that, knowing the address and all the information on one which is open 24 hours is very important. Arenula is one of those pharmacies which is open every day, 24 hours a day, where there´ll be experts to help you and solve your doubts, as well as selling whatever you need. They´re experts that give a good and quick service that, in many cases, is one of the most important things in order not to keep the pain going on. For this reason, if you want to visit this Italian city, you just have to rent apartments in Rome and, if any inconvenient comes up, visit Arenula...

There´s nothing more stimulating than getting to know places which hold secrets or which are nearly unknown by its inhabitants, and that´s what we´re going to tell you about Florence, a city which lives day and night wildly in a way that few people know. Street concerts, theatre plays on the street, artists who show their works on the way… that and more is Florence, where there´s always time to have fun, especially if that fun has a touch of originality to it. Antico Caffè del Moro, better known as the “artists café” because since the 1950s it´s the place where artists from all fields gather to have a coffee and a few drinks and chat. The paintings which decorate its walls are are product of the payment of many artists who didn´t have money to pay for their drinks, giving it a touch of bohemia where cigarettes, liqueur, coffee and fleeting love mixed in the night. Located on Via del Moro 4, today it´s a traditional bar for those who know that story. Trattoria Za-Za is one of the restaurants on Piazza del Mercato Centrale, and it´s considered an unknown place among tourists and many Florentines, because its regulars are market workers. It´s not a beautiful place, just a market stall where many workers, carriers and sellers go to. Inside the tables are small, with checkered tablecloths and dim lighting because it´s lit with candles. Its brick walls are full of portraits of the characters who have visited the place during its long life. Both the food and the service, as well as the prices, are among the...
