If you're ready to embark on this adventure of a lifetime, buckle up and join us on a car journey through the heart of Western Europe!

History of Milan

Like most of Europe, a Celtic tribe founded the city of Milan in 590 BC. After the Romans conquered the region in 222 BC, it was renamed Mediolanum and flourished into one of the world's most powerful towns. The surrounding mountains created a natural fortress, and its location in northern Italy meant it thrived as a trading hub and a base to launch military missions.

After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Milan once again rose from the ashes in the Middle Ages. Affluent families such as Visconti and Sforza brought the cityscape to new heights and even started the construction of the Duomo Cathedral. Economic and cultural wealth oozed from the city through the Renaissance up until Allied forces heavily bombed the region during World War II.

Modern Milan

After the 1940s, Milan quickly restored its streets with state-of-the-art housing, roads, and public plazas. It also became the epicenter of a vital industrial period. With an influx of cash, Milan could turn to urbanization and return to its glory days as the crème de la crème of style and luxury.

In return, the city blossomed into the Fashion Capital of the World. Millions of tourists and celebrities like Emma Watson flock to the streets every February to indulge in brands such as Armani, Gucci, Versace, and Prada.

The city also developed a reputation as being Italy's nightlife capital. Cocktail bars stand on the corner of almost every street, and the chic settings are ideal for spoiling yourself in the spiritual home of aperitivo. These mixed drinks are so famous that one rumor states the first Negroni Sbagliato was created at Bar Basso in the 1970s!

Prepare for Changes

Though under 3.5 hours separate the cities, there are several changes to prepare for. The drive between Zermatt and Milan is the ideal opportunity to read up on the differences.

Firstly, you are entering a new country. Swiss was the national language, but now Italian will be spoken. And since Switzerland isn't part of the Eurozone, you'll also be changing from the Swiss Franc to the euro.

Finally, read up on other nuances, such as the nightlife and tipping cultures.

Pack a Travel Bag

Whether it's a mini backpack or a tote bag, bring a separate pack from your main luggage to have easy access to essentials. The ride will take a few hours, so plenty of water and snacks are essential.

Pack a waterproof jacket and comfortable walking shoes if you plan sightseeing en route. The weather can change instantly within the Highlands.

Wander Piazza del Duomo

Although the Piazza del Duomo is the center of Milan's vibrant atmosphere, it's not the star of the show. The real centerpiece is the mesmerizing Duomo Cathedral, which dominates the area with its stunning Gothic architecture and bright white exterior. You can spend hours simply admiring the structure that began construction in 1386!

While you're here, you can't miss the just as remarkable Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. The oldest active mall in Italy is now a place to shop until you drop in expensive designer brands in exquisitely decorated buildings.

Explore Sforza Castle

The Sforza Castle is a unique medieval fort that was once one of the largest on the continent. Its exterior sums up everything great about Milan: style, charm, and grandeur.

As you explore its expansive courtyards and historic walls, you'll get a surprise just as stunning at the castle: Parco Sempione! Locals sit on the relaxing green spaces sandwiched between leafy walkways and pretty bodies of water. If you're craving more landmarks, stroll to the bottom of the garden to discover Arco della Pace, the old city gate.

Eat Through Navigli

Navigli is the soul of Milan's buzzy nightlife. The charming canals and colorful buildings are like a postcard of Venice. Bars, cafes, restaurants, and takeaways all line the busy cobbled paths, bubbling with a carnival atmosphere.

The best way to eat through Navigli is during Aperitivo. From 5:00 to 8:00 p.m, locals enjoy drinks and light bites before heading out. From €12 to €16, you get a delicious cocktail and unlimited foods, including cured meats, cheeses, pizza, and pasta!

Visit Santa Maria Delle Grazie

Chances are you've never heard of Santa Maria delle Grazie. But you've probably heard of Leonardo Da Vinci's Last Supper mural!

This UNESCO World Heritage Site gives you access to one of the most renowned paintings. Booking in advance is mandatory, so if you're a history buff or art lover, plan your visit before you arrive in Milan.

The Last Supper is understandably in the spotlight. But don't forget to admire other Renaissance pieces and the incredible architecture inside and outside the building.

Shop in Milan’s Fashion Quadrangle (Quadrilatero della Moda)

Milan is a world-renowned fashion destination, so you can’t visit without heading to Milan's prestigious fashion district! Indulge in luxury shopping (or window shopping) in the renowned designer boutiques and upscale fashion houses that line Quadrilatero della Moda. Get inspired and attired with the latest trends in outfits, handbags, and shoes as you explore Via Montenapoleone, Via della Spiga, and Via Sant'Andrea to discover.

Milan in the Fall

Fall is the second shoulder season of the year, from the end of September to November. Temperatures start to cool but are still pleasant for outdoor activities. The most compelling reason is the low cost of flights and accommodation. Milan isn't a budget-friendly city. So you can save significant cash by visiting during this timeframe. Milan Fashion Week is back again in the fall, so prices increase and accommodation fills up for this event.
