Historic Milan

Milan's fortunes hit the ground running after the Celts inhabited the land in 590 BC. Within three centuries, the Roman Army controlled the region and renamed the town Mediolanum. The then ruler, Marcus Claudius Marcellus, saw the jagged terrain as a natural defense structure to prevent other European armies from invading.

Even after the fall of the Roman Empire and the hardships of the Middle Ages, Milan continued to prosper. The Sforza family was arguably the most influential during this timeframe. Their love of art brought much cultural wealth to the region, and their visions of expanding the city began with the construction of both the Sforza Castle and the iconic Duomo Cathedral.

Modern Milan

Even after suffering significant damage during air raids during World War II, Milan bounced back. Its focus on industrialization, including manufacturing and textiles, was essential to gaining revenue to rebuild the exquisite region and move forward into a 21st-century city.

Today, the city has more than recovered. It officially became the Fashion Capital of the World in 2019, and millions of celebrities and tourists flock to the streets to indulge in luxury brands or catch a glimpse of their favorite stars. Its elegant architecture and streets packed with trendy cocktail bars are the perfect setting for everyone to relax after an action-packed shopping day.

Consider your needs and preferences

The drive from Venice to Milan isn't just a way to travel from A to B. It's a sensational journey that people have undertaken for centuries.

The best way to indulge in the experience is by considering your needs and preferences. Are you traveling on a budget? Do you need to arrive as soon as possible? Or maybe you want a stress-free drive.

Once you know, you can decide the best mode of transportation for you!

Have easy access to the essentials

Bring a separate backpack or tote bag from your main luggage to keep some travel essentials close at hand. You don't want to dig through your oversized suitcases to get your sunhat or camera to snap pretty photos.

Some things you should keep inside are:

• Snacks
• Water
• Entertainment outlets
• Weather-appropriate clothing
• Travel documents or booking references

Bus from Venice to Milan

The bus is a runner-up when traveling from Venice to Milan by public transportation. The journey is longer and less comfortable than the train. So, most travelers only use a coach when the train is full. Or when the service doesn't suit their schedule.

Flixbus and Itabus operate on this route. The latter offers seats for only €3 one-way. As a result, this is by far the cheapest way to travel, but the trip can take up to 4 hours, almost twice as long as the alternative.

Daytrip private car from Venice to Milan

If you desire style and comfort on a scenic drive along the flat plains of northern Italy, look no further than Daytrip. Our private door-to-door service picks you up from your address in Venice (or a convenient meeting point if you're on the pedestrian-only island) and gracefully drops you off at your new one in Milan.

Whether it's summer or winter, adjust the thermostat to your liking, recline your seat, and watch in amazement as we provide a front-row seat to Italy's sensational natural wonders. If you wish to step into these stunning pictures, stop at Borghetto sul Mincio’s fairytale village or return to the past at the majestic Castello di Monselice.

Immerse yourself in Duomo Square

A simple Google search of Milan will present endless photos of Duomo Square. But something the pictures can't illustrate is the vibrant energy bubbling in the heart of the city's cultural scene.

In just one swift turn of the neck, you can admire the beauty of Duomo Cathedral's gothic architecture, Italy's oldest-running shopping mall, Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, and the refined design of the Royal Palace. The best place to appreciate the view with a refreshing drink is Terrazza Duomo 21, overlooking the vicinity.

Indulge in apertivo

Did you know that for only €12, you can get a delicious handcrafted cocktail and unlimited food during apertivo?

The period between 5:00 and 8:00 PM is like a religion for Italians. Locals get together with friends and family, surrounded by drinks and light bites. Aperol Spritz is the cocktail of choice, accompanied by cured meats, bread, and cheeses. But many establishments even offer slices of pizza and dishes of pasta.

Almost every bar around town participates in this daily tradition. The Brera District is the most beautiful place to enjoy the nightlife. However, Navigli's canal-lined lanes are the spiritual home of the city. Avoid the main streets and explore the side lanes to find an authentic setting!

Milan in the Spring

You get more pleasant weather than in the summer if you travel in the spring. The average temperature of 77° Fahrenheit isn't overwhelming and lets you enjoy outdoor walking tours. Outside of the city's big events, you'll find fewer tourist crowds, meaning you can immerse yourself in Milan at your own pace.

Milan in the Fall

Milan's leafy walkways turn red and orange as the fall months from September to November approach. It's the most beautiful time to visit and the best time to get the most bang for your buck. Hotels, airlines, and tours all offer attractive discounts to fill spaces before the quiet winter season.
