Milan Tour & Travel Guide - Tourist Places near Milan

Venice

If it’s a romantic getaway you’re looking for, get ready to stroll leisurely through leafy avenues and wind your way down the canals on a traditional gondola. Venice is synonymous with romance- picturesque and quaint, dotted with churches and palaces, lively squares, and interesting shops. A city criss-crossing with canals, connected with its many bridges, promise many hours of exploration and interesting walks. Visit the Palazzo Ducale, and stop and watch life go by at Piazza San Marco.

Florence

Step back into the Italy of the Renaissance period. Florence, the capital of Tuscany, still retains its medieval splendour with broad avenues, grand mansions and beautiful churches. Now a busy business centre, Florence embodies modernity, style and fashion- all the while retaining its old world charm. Visit the many museums to get your dose of history, stroll through the immaculate gardens on a sunny afternoon, watch the beautiful people buzz about at one of the busy piazzas (squares) and enjoy some of that famous Tuscan food and wine.

Discover the mysterious buried city of Pompeii. Buried by the explosion of Mount Vesuvius, excavations have now made it possible to visit and study the once-thriving Roman city. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the cobbled streets and unique architecture make it a perfect destination for a quick getaway. The city was preserved in its entirety under the molten lava, and now, hundreds of years later, has been excavated to reveal architectural and archaeological wonders. Explore the amphitheatre used for gladiator battles, the famous Roman baths, the Temple of Apollo and the Houses of Vettii and Faun.
