Our tips for Milan
- Reach new heights at the Duomo. This iconic Milan attraction is in the very centre of the city, and easily reached by various transport links. Take the elevator to the top of the church, the Duomo roof boasts beautiful sights of the city and the mountains beyond.
- Book in advance for your ‘Last Supper’. Da Vinci’s famous offering is world-famous and an extremely popular Milan sightseeing spot, so be sure to book your tickets in advance to avoid missing out and save on at-the-door fees.
- Get served. Do as the locals do and partake in a traditional Milanese dish during your visit. We suggest digging into the tantalising risotto saffron dish, the Risotto alla Milanese, the perfect stopover meal between Milan tours.
Good to know
Best time to visit
An Italian summer is bliss, though a visit to this busy city is best kept to just outside the peak summer months. Straddling Milan’s manic tourist season, the months of April to May or September to October are ideal for those looking to take a few Milan day tours.
Getting around
Navigating Milan has never been so easy with these travel tips to get you on your way.
- Milan’s metro system is relatively cheap and efficient, running between 6am – 12.30am daily. Three major lines will connect you to all the major sites with ease, ensuring your Milan day trips will go off without a hitch.
- Taxis in Milan can’t be hailed, rather registered drivers will park up at designated ranks. You can find these ranks outside most rail stations, major hotels, and piazzas.
- When considering what to do in Milan, try to keep driving to a minimum. Vehicles are costly to run and park here, plus many streets in the city are pedestrian-only.
Stay Safe
Milan is a relatively safe city, but when it comes to health and safety, a traveller can never be too careful. Keep these precautions in tow so your trip can go off without a hitch…
- Look out for pickpockets and keep valuable items close. Petty crime is common in Milan especially in crowded, tourist-prone areas. Be particularly cautious at Milan’s Central Station.
- Dial 112 for assistance in an emergency.
- There’s plenty of things to do in Milan for solo tourists and big group alike. If you’re travelling solo be sure to walk in well-lit, busy areas and be wary of strangers.
