Nuccying in Milan - Buongiorno! šŸ‡®šŸ‡¹

Milan is a city where one has to know where to go to fall in love with it!Ā 

Here are our best picks, coming from an ex-local and a Milano-lover: the best pastas & pizzas, where to "feel" the city, the hidden gems,...

Before we start,Ā a couple of extra tips from us to you:Ā 

  • If you come by plane, we strongly recommendĀ for you toĀ landĀ in Linate, it is so much closer to the city than Malpensa.Ā 
  • To get a taxi, our best tip is to text Taxi Milano on WhatsApp the following number: +39 333 889 855. You will just have to send a message with your current location and they will come within 5 minutes.Ā 
  • Aperitivo time is Italians favorite time of the day, where you will be able to enjoy an Aperol Spritz with complementary snacks. Starts at around 6pm.
  • Ā Be aware of the "free-bracelet scam" when you visit touristic streets
  • Two days in Milan is enough, and if you have more days, we recommend for you to go to the lakes around (di Garda, Como, Maggiore) for a day tripĀ 
  • Book whenever possible, restaurants get full pretty fast.
  • The streets are paved so we recommend to take a good pair of shoes to easily stroll aroundĀ 

šŸ³ Breakfast

  • Marchesi 1824 - there are a couple but this one is our favorite
