My experience in Milano was very nice. I stayed with a local women and had the best time ever. I visited beautiful streets and the monuments like the dome or the galleries. I felt safe overall and the people where very nice!
Posted: September 12, 2024Milan is a beautiful city. I highly recommend it for solo female travellers. The hostel Ostello Bello, near the central station is perfect for anyone who wants access to all the nearby hotpots like Brera and the Duomo.

Hi, I have travelled to Milan a few times. The city felt quite safe. Places I visited was duomo, navigli, churches, hotels. The Bvulgari hotel was nice. Art museums and shops. I basically went there to meet friends nice to relax by the river, there is dancing, food and drinks. Very sociable

I felt very safe in Milan. I got around by public transport, which was easy and safe. If you don't want to stand in line for hours to get in the Dome, just wait for a mass and walk in for free. You can't take photos thou. Being a low budget traveller, I didn't go out, but cooked for my dear hosts and had lovely time with them ☺ I found that people are very friendly and helpful in Milan.

Posted: July 6, 2024Experienced: May, 2024The experiencd itself was average, sadly because of the plan that the group made, or lack thereof. But the city was lovely, albeit crowded. We went to the Starbucks Reserve Roastery and though it was perfectly beautiful, the extreme amount of people there would not let me enjoy it. Or have breakfast in a reasonable time, since one had to make a long line for each item to buy or to even get in. The cathedral on the other hand is certaiy worth the wait and the hype. Liky because the amount of people inside is controllled. Suggest to buy your tickets in advance from their website and to make it early. If you are a catholic check their mass times and attend to those instead of buying tour ticket.
Posted: July 4, 2024My family and I visited Milan. Great shopping and the Duomo is a must-see. We visited the Duomo inside and also walked up the stairs to the beautiful "terrazze", that is the rooftop with hundreds of statues. Nearby Milan, there are several adventures parks (parco avventura). With zip lines and trees to climb. Lots of fun for kids and adults!
Posted: July 2, 2024Experienced: July, 2023Milan was a big disappointment. I was there for 5 days in a hostel on my own. There was not alot to see in the city. I would also say that its one of the ugliest towns in Italy, alot of big building with banks in them. One day is enough and everything is full with tourists with long lines and waits. The food was good, but also expensive. The churches were also beautiful from the inside.

I felt safe most of the time as we were a group, it’s not my first time in Milan so I knew what areas to avoid at night, there was lots to see and do. It’s a great vacation for a group of friends as it’s a versatile city. I loved the atmosphere and enjoyed the evenings as well

Not too much safe. I bring the chili spray with me and I always keep the keys handy. Don’t stay at the station or place like this. Take care about your things and keep all close in your bag. The city is not safe but is beautiful to visit in the light of night
Posted: September 30, 2024In the morning it’s pretty safe overall and some areas are safe even at night but certain areas like via padova, corvetto etc you should avoid being out alone in at night. Overall petty theft is very common like stealing phones, bikes, bags etc

I’ll go with the short story: I’m from Milan, I live in Rome, I’ve been a producer organising commercials, music video, films, series and photo shoots for years now I’ve decided to stop organising other people’s art and start valuing my own vision, I started shooting in analogic and now it’s what I love and what I am.
