29 days in Milan Itinerary

In many ways the most modern of Italian cities, Milan is a busy, elegant metropolis with an impressive list of grand palaces, fine churches, and important museums.

Step off the beaten path and head to Dialogo nel Buio and Villa Necchi Campiglio. Get out of town with these interesting Milan side-trips: Parco Faunistico Le Cornelle (in Valbrembo), Bergamo (Campanone o Torre Civica, Piazza Vecchia, &more) and Casa Museo di Papa Giovanni XXIII (in Sotto il Monte Giovanni XXIII). And it doesn't end there: take in the local highlights with Walking tours, take an in-depth tour of Basilica di Sant'Ambrogio, step into the grandiose world of Brescia Castle, and wander the streets of Borgo Castell'Arquato.
