We arrived in Milan on a Friday morning. We bought the transport tickets for like 15€ each, which was useful for three days, exactly the amount of time we spent there. The city is beautiful and walkable, there are cafés and restaurants om every corner. But if you're travelling there, I would advise you to plan the trip for an additional city nearby (like Como), because as beautiful as Milan is, there is not much to see.
Posted: February 5, 2026Experienced: November, 2025Before 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...
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.

Milan is a pretty safe city, if you are aware of your surroundings and keep your possession safe. However, it is safer to travel in groups during the evening/late night around the centre and also metro stations.

The central areas are generally safe except pickpocketing, but some peripheral neighborhoods can feel less safe, especially at night. Poor lighting, fewer people on the streets, and limited public services can contribute to a sense of insecurity. While this does not mean that all peripheral areas are dangerous, certain zones require more caution, particularly for those unfamiliar with the city. Instances of petty crime, drug dealing, and antisocial behavior are more commonly reported in specific outskirts.

Milan is generally safe during the day, you always have to be aware of your surroundings in crowded areas because pickpockets are there, as in every big city! At night is a bit unsafer, make sure you’re in an area where there are lots of people and avoid the areas around stations or far from the city centre!
Posted: January 3, 2026Milan 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
