Before visiting, I'd read that Milan was not the highlight of most people's Italy trips, but my friend and I loved it. Getting around using the metro was easy, and we saw quite a lot in a couple days while working through jet lag. We took care in selecting restaurants and ended up with great food, including a visit to Bar Luce. Went vintage/resale shopping, saw an opera, visited the cathedral, went to Sforza castle museum, and some small painted churches we happened upon. We stayed near Milano Centrale station for easy arrival/departure by train, and easy access to the metro. It was a lot of fun!
Posted: October 8, 2025Experienced: February, 2025I visited Italy’s treasures Rome’s ancient ruins, Venice’s canals, Sicily’s charm, Milan’s fashion, and Lake Como’s beauty. Each city felt unique, making the trip truly unforgettable.i felt safe the people were so nice I’m definitely going back
Posted: August 23, 2025I kind of felt safe, because I also knew that people pick pocket in Italy a lot. I recommend going to see the old mall, it’s very beautiful but pricey shops. I also recommend going to the train Station, because outside there is a fun competition of rollerskating. Transportations was kind of hard, I recommend getting an uber if you are far away from your hotel/Airbnb. Otherwise it was a great place to visit I totally recommend visiting Milano, Italia. You can also find lots more fun stuff to do there.

A very beautiful city, with an atmosphere of something ancient, mysterious, very beautiful ancient architecture, there is a lot to see, very tasty food but quite expensive, although there are also cheap cafes,there are 24-hour shops, they have very tasty cookies, sandwiches and tea haha, in general it is an ideal place for those who love old architecture and museums!
Posted: July 16, 2025Experienced: April, 2025It was first time travelling alone, i came here in the morning. While walking i find out that there going Prada fashion show. I went to Duomo, Galleria, Park and so on. A lot of time i spent for researching the history of places.

Milan is generally a safe city to travel during the day or night also for solo travelers. However there is always need to be careful with your belongings in tourist areas and around central stations.

As girl you can roam around the city, in special way in the centre, safely. Just take care of your personal belongings because of pickpockets, in special way on the transport. I live alone since I was 18 yo in Milan and it is ok, be comfortable here. People is always attentive even to other people security. Of course, be careful of strangers, don’t stay alone during night and take in case a taxi, the official are white with reduced fares for women after 10pm
Posted: December 1, 2025It all depends on the area you live in. Overall I would say it’s not a safe city. In the dark there are many weird people and you can never be 100% sure what their intentions are. Never walk alone after a certain hour, stay at least with another girl. I’ve never experienced anything bad but sometimes I felt uncomfortable even walking so yeah better be in 2 at least
Posted: November 19, 2025It is generally safe. However, a lot of stares and if alone can feel uncomfortable quite fast. Depending on the hours (late at night=very not safe). Generally using transport towards busy hours is fine but if dressed up can feel uncomfortable. For example: strangers taking pictures in the subway.
Posted: November 11, 2025Definitely need to watch out for pick pockets but otherwise its all good. Some areas where you will experience cat calling but no one will approach you. Keep your phone always with you and cash at a minimum.

I am a lover. In search of something around the world. Meeting people and broadening my perspective watching at them and their personal way to do something I do differently. I am a therapist, I take care of pregnant women, sport athletes and other categories but I am also a teacher in a female school. I travel since I was 18yo and I did so many experiences in life, knowing many countries. I love learning languages, listen to the other people’s stories, reflect on life. But also move my body, spread energy, doing sport and activities. Travelling with girls makes me more comfortable, nothing more than sharing a great experience. Looking forward to meet you
