One Day in Milan (My Itinerary + Map 2022) (1)

Milan is the capital of Lombardy. It’s a lovely region in Northern Italy that shares a border with Switzerland to the north. The area is also home to the beautiful lakes Como and Maggiore.

Milan is a city bursting with stunning architecture, rich history and mouth-watering food. I’ve been to many places in Italy, but when it comes to incredible food, this is one of my favourites.

The city is so much more than just a fashion capital. The famous mural painting the Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci and the gorgeous cathedral attracts visitors from all over the world. No matter if you’re looking for astonishing architecture or delicious Italian food, this is the place to go.

Visit the iconic Milan Cathedral

09:00 AM – 10:15 AM
Duomo di Milano is one of the must-see attractions. Located in the beating heart of the city, this marvellous building took six centuries to complete. Its façade was finished in 1805, shortly before Napoleon Bonaparte was crowned King of Italy at the cathedral.

As it’s the number one place to visit in Milan, the lines are always long (even in the low season). So, it’s best to buy tickets for Duomo in advance.

You can climb to the Duomo terraces for some outstanding panoramic views of the city. It’s possible to access the terraces by foot or by lift. There is a fee to visit both the cathedral and its rooftop.

Another option to skip the lines is by taking a guided tour of the Duomo (the tour includes also the terraces).

Castello Sforzesco served as the main residence of the Visconti Family, a noble dynasty that ruled Milan from 1277 to 1447. Lord Galeazzo II Visconti commissioned the initial building in the 14th century. At that time the castle was known as Castello di Porta Giovia.

Later Francesco I Sforza, the founder of the Sforza dynasty, renamed the castle. Francesco I ruled the city as the fourth Duke of Milan from 1450 until his death.

Nowadays, the castle houses several museums plus an unfinished sculpture of Michelangelo, Pietà Rondanini. It was his last work before his death at age 89. You can visit the museums by paying a small fee.

The castle grounds are free to stroll.

Getting around in Milan

Find a detailed map of the itinerary here.

The city has a great network of public transportation options. And they all use one and the same ticket, which is very convenient.

(Video) One day in Lake Como - day trip from Milan 🇮🇹

Yet, if you stay right in the Historic Centre, you won’t need any public transport. The city centre is compact and walkable. However, you’ll probably need to use public transport to get to the Central train station (to take a train or a shuttle bus to the airport).

The most convenient transportation for me is the metro. There are different types of tickets. I used the Urban ticket, as I was mostly walking. It’s valid for a single journey, 90 minutes after stamping.

How to get to Milan

By train

Milan is easily accessible by train from any major Italian (or European) city. The Central train station is about 2km away from the Historic Centre. Yet, you easily get to the centre by using the metro.

If you’re planning to travel by train through Italy, book tickets in advance (they are cheaper if you buy earlier). Check timetables and book train tickets online at Trenitalia official website.

By car

If you’re arriving by car, it’s best to choose accommodation with available parking. The Historic Centre is a limited traffic area and you won’t find free parking (find more info about parking here).

To get the best car rental rate, take a look at Rentalcars (they compare deals from all major companies, giving you the best price).

Milan airports

There are two international airports in Milan: Milan–Malpensa Airport (MXP) and Orio al Serio (Milan Bergamo) International Airport (BGY).

  • The easiest way to get to the city centre is by booking a private transfer directly to your hotel. I recommend this airport transfer (more than 2,360+ excellent reviews).
  • Malpensa Airport is located about 50km from the city centre. To get to the Central train station from the airport use any of the numerous shuttle buses. There is no need to book tickets in advance.
  • Orio al Serio International Airport is situated in the city of Bergamo, about 60km from Milan. You can get there by using a shuttle bus.

Day trips from Milan

If you have a few more days in Milan and want to explore Italy, check out these ideas.

Serravalle Designer Outlet

If you’re visiting Milan for shopping, then Serravalle Designer Outlet is a must. It’s one of the largest shopping malls in Europe. There are more than 170 high-end stores to choose from. You can reach it by car or a shuttle bus.

Lake Como

Lake Como is the most popular lakeside resort in Italy. It is famous for its fantastic Mediterranean and Alpine scenery. It’s a great option for a day trip. You can reach it by car or train.

How to get to Lake Como

  • Take a train from Milan Centrale or Porta Garibaldi to Como S. Giovanni station (from there it’s just 10 minutes walk to the lake).
  • You can also take a guided day tour, that includes a cruise to Bellagio Island and a guided tour of the city of Como. This day trip to Lake Como is the best rated.

St. Moritz

St. Moritz is a popular mountain resort in Switzerland. You can take an organized day trip, that includes a ride on the Bernina Express. This is one of the most scenic railway routes in Switzerland.

Most popular Italian cities

If you’re planning a trip around Italy add to your itinerary Rome, Venice and Florence.

Rome is the capital of Italy and one of its most visited cities. It’s a little far away for a day trip (about 3 hours by train). So, it’s best to add it as a next stop in your Italian itinerary.

To see the best of the city follow my Rome itinerary. Also, check out what is the best area to stay in Rome for first time visitor.

Venice is one of the most scenic cities in Italy. Built on more than 100 small islands, it’s all surrounded by water.

Find all you need to know in my in-depth guide to how to spend 3 days in Venice (including how to skip the lines and transportation tips).

(Video) How to Plan a Trip to MILAN, ITALY • Budget Travel Guide Part 1 (English)

Booking a central hotel is very important because water buses are the only way of transportation allowed in Venice. Take a look at my guide to the best location to stay in Venice (including hotel recommendations).

Florence is the capital of Tuscany and the birthplace of the Renaissance. It’s located about 2 hours by train from Milan.

Although it’s possible to see the city on a day trip, I’d recommend spending 2-3 days in Florence (check out my perfect Florence itinerary). The capital of Tuscany is a heaven for every art and architecture lover.

Check out my guide to where to stay in Florence for the best areas and hotels.

How many days in Milan

Is one day in Milan enough?

If you have one full day in Milan, you’d able to see the city’s highlights including the Duomo, Sforza Castle and the Last Supper. However, my advice is to book in advance tickets for the most popular attractions and not to lose time waiting in lines.

1 or 2 days in Milan?

If you’re not into museums, 1 day is completely enough. Yet, for all art lovers, I’d recommend spending 2 days in Milan (if it’s possible). Visit Pinacoteca di Brera and Bagatti Valsecchi Museum (a historic private palace turned into an art gallery). Also, don’t miss San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore, known as the Sistine Chapel of Milan.

Best time to visit Milan

Spring (April and May) and autumn (September and October) is the best time to visit the city. In this way, you’ll avoid the high season (May – September) and the sweltering temperatures in the summers.

Also, before booking your flight tickets, check for events such as the Fashion Week or Furniture Fair. And if possible choose different dates for your city break. The hotels in these periods are 2-3 times more expensive, plus it will be more difficult to find a place.

If you’re planning to visit the city in December don’t miss the Christmas markets around the Duomo and Sforza Castle.

Practical information about Milan

Visas

Italy is a part of the Schengen Agreement (the European border-free area). So you don’t need an Italian visa, but rather a Schengen visa. If your country is part of the Schengen Agreement, you’ll need only a valid passport or ID card.

You can check at iVisa if you need a visa and what type exactly. What I loved about iVisa is that they offer an easy and fast process to obtain a visa online. The application takes no more than 5 minutes!

Money

The official currency of Italy is the Euro. Visa and Mastercard are accepted almost everywhere, so you won’t need much cash. American Express is accepted only in major stores.

Language

The official language is Italian. Yet, most of the people speak good English, too. If you want to learn some Italian, check out this Italian phrasebook (it’s one of the best rated).

Travel adapters

Italy operates on a 230V supply voltage and 50Hz. The associated plug types are C, F and L.
If you’re from the US, this is the only travel adaptor that you’ll need.
If you’re from the UK, this is the best-rated travel adaptor.
