Why didn’t Nancy Palosi check Priceline before she went to Italy?

By My Dream Vacations on Friday, March 19th, 2010 | 13 Comments

Here we go again. I’m not going to bash her or insult her which is my usual modus operandi. This time I’m giving her the total benefit of the doubt. I presume you have been watching CNN who is commenting on her trip to Italy and the cost to taxpayers. Let’s get beyond that for a moment. The point is that she and her cohorts took a private jet which, according to CNN, costs $10,000 an hour to operate. They also said that the total trip costs $200,000.00 but they can’t confirm that yet.
So I went to Priceline and checked four(4) round trip tickets from KSFO to Rome, Italy. I also gave her the benefit of first class arrangement over business class. So, sombody please help me out. Here’s what I got in what should be a comfortable scenario for her:

By My Dream Vacations on Monday, March 15th, 2010 | 7 Comments

I have a travel project to do for my International Business class. Is venice, italy a good choice?

we are given a $3000 US dollars budget. this is for 2 people going on a 7 day 6 nite trip. using the $3000, we need to decided to have the airline tickets without travel agents, hotel to stay in, at least one different restaurant a day, 2 alternate transportations (no taxis of rental cars), landmark visits, 2 activities( ex: horseback riding, hiking). we are allowed to choose when we go so the airlines are cheaper. Our starting location is texas.

Things to do in italy

By My Dream Vacations on Thursday, January 28th, 2010 | No Comments

The cruise ride will take you through the Western Mediterranean. The tour will be quite enchanting and you will be mesmerized by the gushing sound of the waves as the propellers make way through the sea.

In general the weather is very hot and steaming in the dead of the summer. We recommend that you wear light clothing. Be sure to have sunglasses, hat and sun block, as they are essential.

Travel Guide For Rome: Traveling To Rome

By My Dream Vacations on Tuesday, September 8th, 2009 | 2 Comments

When flying into Rome, the Fiumicino (Leonardo da Vinci) and the Ciampino airports are the two options to choose from. The Fiumicino is the primary airport and offers international flights from all over the world, whilst the Ciampino is a smaller airport that is usually used for budget airlines and for charter lines.

There are several methods of transport to consider once you arrive, including buses, trams, subway, and taxis. Be sure to get a metered fare, and not a negotiated fare, if you choose to travel by taxi. Provided your taxi driver suits you, you can hire the driver as a travel guide, so he or she can make sure you don’t miss any points of interest.
