2010 World Cup Packages to South Africa

By Adriana N.

Though the event is due to be broadcast live in 3D for the first time, there is nothing like being up close and personal with the world's greatest football show. As such, it could well be time to take advantage of one of the 2010 World Cup packages that are available.

The World Cup coming to the African continent for the first time in the competition's history is hugely exciting and, no matter what team you are supporting, there are packages to suit. Though the football is all important of course, they also give you a great opportunity to explore the wonder South African country and culture.

The packages available across the internet are many and varied, but they all tend to follow to the same sort of routine. They will include all flights and quite often transfers if needed, will cover accommodation and have a host for the duration of the stay. Most importantly of all of course, they will include the ticket to the match of your choice.

This is for the most basic of packages of course, for just the one match at the group stage. There are more 2010 World Cup packages available of course; going right from the start to the final, but the cost will obviously rise considerably.

There may also be restrictions on certain packages, depending upon what country you are booking from and which matches you are wanting to see. FIFA have put tough restrictions on the sale of match tickets for this event, so freedom of selecting matches cannot always be guaranteed.

Many of the top packages available also include fantastic excursions in areas of interest local to the stadia where the match is due to play. One of the most popular types are those that include safaris in the amazing parks. However, for a real treat, seeing the morning migration of wildebeest from a hot air balloon is something not to be missed.

Booking of the 2010 World Cup Packages can be done quite easily, with many operators. However, such are the restrictions; the process can take a little time. There is a crackdown on ticket touting in this year's completion, so identities will need to be verified.

Prices are quite high of course, but do vary from package to package of course. However, they do offer what will for most be a once in a lifetime opportunity, and a chance to really soak up the atmosphere of one of the best sporting events the world hosts.

When looking online, though it will be tempting to look for the cheapest available, caution should certainly be exercised. Though tighter rules exist over ticket allocation, there are no guarantees that they will stop all confidence tricksters of course. As such, it is wise to go with a name you know, or have certainly heard about.

Booking your 2010 World Cup Packages with a reputable operator, that is accredited and protected within your own country will not just make for a safe and pleasant trip; but allow you to enjoy all the action without worry.
Book your 2010 World Cup packages from the industry leader in sports travel. Providing 2010 World Cup travel for soccer tickets, hotels, preferred seating and more. Also offering 2012 summer Olympics packages.

Seeing Rome in Two Days

by: Paolo Pedica
Rome is a magically city with a vast history dating back centuries. Many have dreams of visiting Rome and once they arrive, they do not know where to begin. The best way to explore Rome is by first talking with an official and licensed tour guide. They can help you create an itinerary so you can see and experience as much of Rome as possible with the time you have.


An official tour guide such as Rome Tour will be able to aid in creating a custom tour for you so you can enjoy many of the remarkable things to see and do in Rome. Two days in Rome will give you time to see more than you can imagine, especially if you choose a private tour. A private tour will give you at your disposal your own private personal driver and tour guide. This allows you to see all the sights in comfort while avoiding long lines and tourist traps. This of course will ensure you get to see all that you desire while in Rome.

An example of the highlights you can visit in two days in Rome include the Coliseum, Vatican City, Capitoline Hill, the Roman Forum, the Catacomb, the Ancient Appian Way, the Baths of Caracalla, Circus Maximus, Basilica of Saint Paul outside the Walls, the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, and the Navona Square. Of course, not all of this can be accomplished in just one day. Day one you will be able to visit the Vatican along with highlights of Ancient Rome including the Roman Forum, Capitoline Hill, and the Coliseum.

The second day in Rome will include highlights found in Baroque and Christian Rome such as the Baths of Caracalla, the Circus Maximus, Rococo Trevi Fountain, Catacombs located along the Ancient Appian Way, the Navona Square, and Basilica of Saint Paul outside the Walls.

Remember these are just examples; Rome Tour specializes in creating custom tours that will allow you to embrace Rome in the way you desire from special tours to wine tasting tours to shopping tours. Allowing an official tour guide to provide you with a private tour will allow you to feel the passion of the centuries that have made Rome one of the most popular destinations in the world.

One last thing to remember, no matter what sights you wish to visit, you must stop by the Trevi Fountain and throw a coin into the fountain over your shoulder. As the legend, goes this will ensure you will make a return trip to Rome.

One last thing, if you wish to explore the beautiful churches in Rome or anywhere in Italy, there is a dress code. No one can enter with bare shoulders, sleeveless shirts, or miniskirts.
