I’ve lived in Milan for 25 years and I can definitely confirm that if you want to have a quintessential Milanese experience, you should definitely go to a bar for an aperitivo milanese. It’s a very common way for people to meet up with friends after work, since it’s less of a commitment and less expensive than dinner. It’s often a fixed price and typically includes a buffet with things like focaccia or mini pizzas and usually cold pasta or rice salad etc., and you can have one or two drinks. Even if there isn’t a buffet, you can at the very least expect a bowl of chips and some olives. If you go to a place that puts on a big buffet, it’s a great way to save on dinner, but not so great if you want more than a couple of drinks. Some bars are really proud of their aperitivi and put out amazing food like fresh oysters, but others just serve large bowls of bland pasta salad. In any case, it’s an experience worth trying if you’re in Milan 🙂

I was in Milan last week. One tip from me, don't buy one way tickets (2.20 €), buy 24 hour tickets (7.60 €) which works in metro, trams, and busses. I used historic trams to get around and it was lovely. Also duomo tickets are not cheap, look for combi tickets or Milan cards for best price for value.

Buy from the official Duomo Milano website and consider the combo as it’s cost effective than individual visits. And yes, the metro €2.20 is more expensive than Rome but 24hr, 48hr etc passes.

I went to Milan at the end of a Naples, Rome, Florence, Ravenna, Venice, Milan trip and loved it precisely because it is so very different from the other cities. It has a more modern vibe, very clean and upscale. The Chiefs di San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore was a hidden gem that rivaled the Last Supper and right next door to the Civic Archaeological Museum. And the Leanardo3 Museum at the end of the Galleria should not be missed. It provides an excellent overview of Da Vinci’s engineering marvels. Seeing what he did with wood and rope, I could not help wondering what he might have accomplished with modern materials. I stayed in the Portello district near the City Life mall which is walking distance to the Duomo (if you really like to walk) and the architecture both old and new was very impressive. It was also very easy to do a quick overnight to Varenna on Lake Como which became one of my new favorite places.

Hi, as a proud Milanese, I would say that all your advices are very good and pertinent, but one. I traveled a lot in all the Country, I know Venice, Florence, Rome, Naples and other smallest towns, definitely worth a visit. But I reallly would place my City in the first three to see! And another advice: during the Fashion Week ( and also the Design Week) prices are skyrocketing. Hotel and AirBnB easily double their prices. Enjoy your visit, then. You won't be deceived! 😊

I just went there about a week ago. Even though I grew up watching AC Milan dominating Europe at one point, the stadium is just old and I felt like not taken care of. The museum is old, the field and the tunnel were under reconstruction. None of this was on their website when we bought the tickets. So we left really disappointed after paying 30 euro for a ticket.

Hahahahahaaaaaaa I never would have thought to hear from "Milanese imbruttito" and Giargiana in a foreign video 😂 I am one of those 2% Milanese through and through. Actually the Imbruttito type (a really funny character created by a local comedian) is a very business/money driven guy, more Brianzolo we would think. The true Milanese's mantra is understatement: do not disturb, don't be flashy (because you can disturb others) and, yes, probably because it will distract you from "el laurà" (= work) which, very much like our brothers and sisters in Milan Chinatown, is always on our minds, and never enough. I agree, if you're coming to Italy for the natural sights, Tuscany landscapes and southern (or Ligurian) sea, you'll be disappointed in Milano. Also, I agree 200% eat local, anywhere in Italy, and you'll enjoy our diversity. Milan has some great churches, a bit of roman ruins (but not too much) and a couple really great museums like Museo del Novecento and Poldi Pezzoli. Edit: I forgot Pinacoteca di Brera and Ambrosiana... And public transportation is, in my opinion, the best, most reasonably priced, and most exhaustive in Italy. Another little edit: if by chance you arrive at Bergamo (Orio al Serio) and you have time, Bergamo is a very beautiful city for a short visit, and really near Milano. It was so great to have your perspective on my hometown!

Incredibly noisy and loud. Yes I know cities are but the honking and police cars were constant. I loved Rome and have been three times.

It is touristic for a reason, but it is not insanely touristic like Rome and Venice can be (at least when I was there). Some nearby places in Switzerland seems to be quite interesting too and relatively affordable given how expensive is Switzerland. Trento and the region near Austria are in my bucket list too.

I sang a few notes so Incan sang I sang in La Scala. 🤣 The Duomo is amazing. It's the most majestic one in Italy as far as I'm concerned. (from the outside anyway). My favorite places are in Tuscany but Milan is pretty awesome too. Negroni is the best drink I had in Italy. They had free potato chips too. I think we had 3 bowls of chips.

Good call on checking which airport you're coming in to. I had a holiday at Lake Garda - Malpensa might be the biggest airport, but it's completely on the wrong side of the city. Bergamo would have ben better. And also the terminals at Malpensa are a long way apart and not every hire car company has an office in both termini. So I arrived at one terminal but my hire car company was based in the other....

If you are a tourist with Italian heritage and looks/dresses Italian, it works to keep them off of you. They don’t seem to mess with the locals as much. I’ve had to do it a few times in Rome last time I was there. But, the best things to do is keep a lookout for them, you know who there are and where they will be and just don’t go near them. It’s actually pretty easy not to have to deal with their bs if you are aware of your surroundings.

I think back to my first European trip. I was taking a train from Rome to Zurich and it was supposed to have a stop in Milan. About 30 minutes before we were supposed to arrive in Milan they made an announcement that the train was going to skirt Milan because of some type of communist demonstration that had led to sporadic gunfire. This was 1973 and after that I never made any journeys that included Milan as either a destination or intermediate stop. Also, how come you didn't mention eating horse?

Orio al Serio a Bergamo è più piccolo e meno alienante di Malpensa. Milano è ricca di specialità culinarie, forse la città italiana con più specialità. Oltre al Risotto ( di cui ci sono centinaia di versioni) , alla cotoletta, non dimenticate l'ossobuco, che oltretutto in USA è molto famoso, poi consiglio la Cassoeula. Non potete tornare a casa senza aver comprato il famoso Panettone, e poi non dimenticate i salami e i formaggi, di cui Milano è ricca. Gorgonzola sopra tutti. Ma ne abbiamo a dozzine, taleggio, crescenza, quartirolo, robiola, stracchino ecc ecc. Abbiamo anche la pizza alla milanese, di cui Spontini è la marca più famosa. una pizza alta al trancio che sinceramente preferisco alla napoletana. Una volta si mangiava sul legno in tavolacci tipici, ora hanno vietato anche questo. Una capatina alla chiesa di s.Satiro di cui avete mostrato l'abside, con il famoso trompe d'oile del Bramante, uno spazio immaginario creato con un effetto scenografico. Saluti da un "milanese Imbruttito".... PS: i "giargiana"per noi sono soprattutto le persone del sud Italia, che non sono per nulla gentili, li troverete alle Poste e negli uffici pubblici, se avrete la malaugurata sorte di incrociarli.

As a milanese i confirm all, just to be annoying, Risotto alla milanese is the one with the Ossobuco, no Ossobuco no real recipe :)

Don't look up, don't look around. Instead, look down to avoid stepping on the mines they've put on the pavement.

Stepping on the bull’s balls is a gesture of spite towards Turin, which for some time was the Capital of Italy. The rest is tourist-fairy tales….

I have been to several cities in Italy but if I had visited Milan first I may not have come back to Italy in a hurry. Don’t get me wrong there are some fantastic sights to see like the Duomo, Last Supper, the science museum (this was fab) and great bars and restaurants. However the graffiti ruined it for me swathes of it all over shops, restaurants etc. I don’t mean Banksy type graffiti I mean just scrawl. It makes the place look run down. I definitely don’t get a huge Italian vibe from Milan it has Swiss and German influences. I also did not feel that safe. After visiting Rome, Florence, Verona, Venice, Genoa and several more places in Italy, Milan is bottom of my list. One thing I will say everybody smells wonderful and you can see some beautifully dressed men and women. After visiting Vienna last which was so clean and beautiful I was sadly disappointed in Milan. If you want to go to Lake Como, Switzerland, Verona it is an excellent base.

Yes, unfortunately graffiti are everywhere. It wasn't like that in the past. We can't blame the city itself. There are gangs that come from elsewhere and deface houses. They aren't even creative: just letters.

Seriously, Milan was almost as expensive as Paris. As I was only there for a few hour, I kept it simple and lunched at the McDo near the Duomo (which has interesting non-gendered toilets btw).

To be honest: Milan was a disappointment for me. The castle was ok to do, but the Duomo was just... dark and empty. Also, I had a group that wanted to go shopping in Milan... AT THE H&M! Stay at home then, if that's your wish. The city itself feels too dull to be honest. The fashion status is surely earned for a reason, but it doesn't add up in total. The Galleria is impressive, but not that large. For me it's a one time only to be honest. It was not the people, the city just lacked the plus for travels.

What do you mean by "the Galleria is not THAT large" ? Is the central station at least big enough?

There visit of a very old church (Cripta Santo Sepulcro) included with the ticket of the Pinoteca Ambrosina is quite interesting. There were also cool outdoors activities for kids at the Leonardo da Vinci Museum.

Seems to be spot on. Have been to Milano twice, and even it is an interesting city it is not among the top five aitalian towns. But renting a scooter or moped sounds fun. I am nearly every day driving scooter here in Bangkok, and I think Milano should be a more relaxing place to drive compared to Bangkok. 😂
