Milan Day Trip, The Best Milan Excursions

One of the most enticing things about Milan is it’s status as a hub for a number of excursions that will easily lure you out of the city for a day or two, if not more. So if you’re planning a trip to Milan, make sure you leave enough time for a few day trips.

One of the best day trips from Milan combines some of Italy’s most beautiful scenery with one of Shakespeare’s most beautiful plays. On the Verona and Lake Garda tour, visit 23 Via Cappello street in Verona, and see the balcony that was made famous by Shakespeare in Romeo and Juliet. Then, make your way back to Milan through the charming towns surrounding Lake Garda, Italy’s largest lake.

Experience the Italian Riviera on a Tour of the Cinque Terre (five lands). On this Milan day trip, explore the fishing village of Vernazza, climb a flight of brick stairs into the town of Corniglia, stroll along La Via dell’Amore (Lovers’ Pathway) in Manarola, go to the beach in Riomaggiore, and discover the ancient castle in Monterosso al Mare.
