Milan
Arival
From Bergamo the easiest way to the centre is to get the airport bus and it is 12 euros or 10 euros if book online it comes every half hour but check on website if unsure.
It takes one hour and you will be dropped right outside Central station from there you can get a train to where ever or the tube
Today was very sunny luckily I packed a vest and some shorts last minute as was 20/21 degrees which is hot for me been from the North East of England.
If visiting this area in the afternoon it is crazy mad busy.
Day one full day
Sunday
I recommend if you want some nice pictures of Duamo you need to go early as possible and the shopping centre.Even by 8am there is people on a Sunday so if you want pictures I suggest getting up 6am possibly and making your way there if you want no one in the background as everyone has the same idea
You can have breakfast facing the Duamo just opposite and this is an amazing view.
Meating point was not far from republica metro station for the bus at 9.15am
Top tip sit on left side of bus for views of lake como I was unfortunately on the right hand side so missed out
Located in the southern Alps, St. Moritz is the oldest winter sports resort in the world, attracting a stream of international visitors to its historic hotels, designer shops and gourmet restaurants. Its gastronomic scene is second to none, boasting an array of superb restaurants from Michelin-star spots to local gems
Places to eat St Moritz
Please be aware that it is quite expensive to eat here. I got a take away kebab and water and it came to £16
Monday
If want any pictures will need to get up early as this metro stop is not far from Duamo. I needed a lie in as I was totally wiped out from the last two days.
When I arrived at the metro station I got a Crossaint and cappuccino from the stall inside for less than €5
Straight outside of the metro is a McDonald's I ate my breakfast there facing the arch
QC Termemilano is a 2/3 minute walk from here around the corner. I paid for the 5 hour spa experience and I would say it is worth it but it does get busy after 10.30am and weekends in Milan are crazy busy no matter what time of year you come
Grab lunch at one of these places.
Restaurants in front of duomo
After lunch head to
After this call and climb the steps for sunset if can get tickets for the last slot. I recommend booking a few days before as this gets crazy busy
I have included the website to book your tickets so you can choose your timeslot
I dont drink so I don't have any bars to recommend personally.
Tuesday
Option to store luggage if up early and get train to go and do Lake Como.
From Milan Central station it is approx 5 euros for a one ticket to como but the best option if you only have one day. Take a train to Veranna which should take 1 hour. This will cost approximately 7 euros and make sure to check return times
The ferry from Varenna to Bellagio takes just 15 minutes, and the cost is a mere 4.60 euro. You will thoroughly enjoy all that Bellagio has to offer.
This is a more do able option if you are short on time and need to get back
Flight is 11pm but it is 1 hour 30 from Central Milan roughly to airport and need to be there no later than 7pm which means the last option for me to leave the central station is approx 5pm/5.30 to make sure.
Also need to get tube to the central station then bus to airport which takes 1 hour and need to check times that it leaves
