Day trips
With high-speed trains, Rome is about three hours away: a packed day, but doable if you book your trains early and choose a walking itinerary.
Train: high-speed from Milano Centrale to Roma Termini, about 3 hours
Timing: leave at dawn, return in the evening
Book ahead: trains and the Colosseum
Yes, but it’s a long day. Catch a very early high-speed train from Centrale, a 10-minute walk from the suite, and come back on one of the last trains in the evening. Booking in advance gets you much lower fares.
From Termini, take the metro to the Colosseum. With a pre-booked ticket you can visit the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill: allow at least two to three hours.
From Piazza Venezia, walk to the Pantheon, Piazza Navona and the Trevi Fountain, ending at Piazza di Spagna. It’s a route of a few kilometres past the most famous monuments.
