Your Destination

There is no better destination in Europe than Milan for a shopping weekend. Take time to visit the birthplace of so many of the famous design houses such as Gucci, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana and Armani. Walk through the Manzoni quarter to visit the avenues where fashion is created daily, namely on Montenapoleone Boulevard and Via della Spiga. This area has been named "Fashion Square" by the locals and is definitely worth a visit.

Fashion and shopping is not all there is to see and do in Italy, as the city's rich heritage is present at every street corner and on every square. Enjoy visits of the various cathedrals and museums, or simply soak up the atmosphere at an outdoor café, discovering the city like one of the locals.

Milan Christmas Markets 2019 (late Nov-early Jan)

Milan may not be at the top of your Christmas Market list but it definitely shouldn't be missed! The city's famously intricate cathedral serves as the backdrop to a lively Christmas market where you can peruse over-laden wooden stalls in search of home-made decorations and enticing delicacies.  A visit to an Italian Christmas Market isn't complete without a visit to the Nativity scene - the centerpiece of any festive market.
