EYP - English Yellow Pages for Italy

Famed for producing remarkable flowers due to the mild climate of the region, Liguria offers a wonderful medley of experiences and sights. While the Apennine Mountains and Alps dominate the region, it is the Ligurian coastline that is famously beautiful, with the popular resort towns of Portofino and Santa Margherita and the fascinating villages of Cinque Terre. The region’s capital, Genoa, is a wonderful representation of the charm of the area; a modern and historic port, the city showcases such ancient landmarks as the Palace of the Doges, the Piazza de Ferrari and Christopher Columbus’s birthplace as well as the Acquario di Genova, the largest aquarium in Europe. A beautiful and historically significant region, Liguria provides the possibility for a fascinating adventure.

TramJazz, organized by Trambus, the public transport company of Rome, is a weekly event offering passengers aboard a 1947 tram fine dining, live music, and a three hour sight-seeing tour through the historic center of Rome.

Every Friday night at 21:00 TramJazz departs from Piazza di Porta Maggiore and travels past sites including Piramide Cestia, Fori Imperiali, and Piazza Vittorio. The tram breaks in front of the Colosseum, for passengers to enjoy a romantic candlelit dinner surrounded by the vibes of live jazz music.

Jazz performers aboard TramJazz on Friday, June 4, 11, and 25 include Paolo Ravaglia, Marco Aquarellu, Marco Loddo and Gabriele Coen. For a taste of their tunes check out the website tramjazz.com or the newly-released CD “TramJazz.”
