Milan

Got ourselves a 7-day Global Pass and travelled through 5 countries. Buying the pass was easy but how to use the app for activating the pass will need some time to learn. However, fear not as there are many experienced people out willing to share. Do some readings and join some fb travel groups and you will surprised by the information available. The pass was flexible but the train schedule can be unpredictable which means you need to be updated requently to stay on course of your journey. We only experienced one hicccup on one of the trips at Berlin due to seat reservation issue and missing the connecting train due to delay of the first train. The other trips were as planned.

Just pop up and show the ticket, stow your luggage and board the bus. No need to prebook but be early, since its first come first served. T1 bags are on the left side, T2 on the right. Show your ticket at Mercato Centrale Milano for 10% off.

The Trenitalia Pass was simple to use and it’s suitable for first time tourist to use. However, it’s a little bit expensive, but for the convenience sake. Do note that you will need to plan your route and journey in advance so that you can reserve your seats.

Price: Cheaper than buying it yourself Location and redemption details: Easy to find Seat reservation process: Easy and convenient Includes transfer service: Very good Includes transfer service: Very good

The pick-up point in Turin is at this Google Maps location: Bus Ticket SADEM- EXTRA.TO. The bus is very punctual, so it's recommended to be there 20 minutes early to wait. The bus might not be an Autostradale bus. Please check the logo on your ticket or ask the people waiting there if they are going to MXP. I took the 7:00 AM bus, and it was the only bus there at the time.

I really enjoyed this cooking class! The chef was very informative and professional. My only criticism is that I would have liked to have a printed list of the recipes since it's a lot of information to remember all at once.

I participated with my 7 and 9-year-old children. The experience and explanations were comprehensive, with consideration and engagement to ensure everyone enjoyed themselves. My children said it was their favorite experience during their stay in Italy. It's also easily accessible, right near the central station.

Worth the visit however note that mostly are older models. Prices are way cheaper. Only downside would be, the information on the meeting point could be more clearer. There are many taxi stands around the station. I have attached here 2 photos for reference. Look out for the exit where it will lead you to that BIG APPLE. It is opposite the street.
