Itinerary

Day 1

ARRIVAL MILAN

  • Upon your arrival in Milan reach the hotel on your own and check in (transfer available as an optional extra). In the evening, meet your private guide at the hotel and start your first walking tour (the tour starts at 17.00 hrs). Admire the medieval Sforza Castle, an impressive medieval castle and fortress, one of the most impressive urban castles in Europe. It was once a residence for the ruling family of Milan and now hosts several of the city’s museums and art collections. Visit the splendid Duomo Cathedral, a striking example of Gothic art and the largest church in Italy. Try to count the statue crammed onto its roof and facade, there are more than 3.200 of them, before following your guide on the visit to the interior. Exit the Duomo and walk inside Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II shopping gallery to have a look or do some shopping on your own.

    Overnight in Milan.

Admire the lakeside villas and keep an eye out for Villa d’Este at Cernobbio, a luxurious hotel set in tropical gardens. The mild Mediterranean climate ensures an abundance of exotic and rare plants thriving all year round.
