Pisa is strategically located in the central part of Italy, at only 12 km from the Ligurian Sea, 20 km from the harbour of Livorno and the ferries heading to the Elba Island, Sardinia and Corsica, and 80 km from Florence. This city is most known for its leaning tower, but it also preserves Piazza dei Miracoli, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, its medieval centre, numerous masterpieces of architecture and medieval history. The area around Pisa is also excellent for farm holidays, trekking, beaches and water sports on the Versilian coast.

Ducati, Lamborghini and Maserati were all born in Bologna and Ferrari’s headquarters can be found in nearby Modena.

Beijing

Beijing's famous Tiananmen Square is vast enough to hold one million people, while the historic Forbidden City boasts thousands of imperial rooms. The city continues to grow with the emergence of ever-higher rising towers, new restaurants, and trendy nightclubs. Despite this rapid development, China's capital has managed to retain its unique charm. The small teahouses in the backyards, traditional fabric shops, old temples, and bustling street restaurants make this city one of a kind.

Zakynthos

Zakynthos, also known as Zante, is the third largest of the Ionian Islands. The south and east coasts are hubs of lively resorts, while a short journey inland or west reveals the island's other side: pine-clad hills, traditional villages, and a dramatic coastline where limestone cliffs meet translucent seas. The iconic Navagio 'Shipwreck Beach' epitomises the wild beauty of the west. The island’s capital blends a spacious Italianate square with reminders of its history, watched over by the ruins of a Venetian castle.
