Welcome to the city of Milan, a true paradise for shopping lovers. Capital of fashion and design, it boasts a never-ending range of stores, artisan workshops, avant-garde outlets, showrooms and high-end boutiques. Make sure you take a leisurely stroll around the glamorous Quadrilatero d'Oro! Must-sees among Milan's architectural and artistic heritage include the Piazza del Duomo, with the incredible Cathedral; the Royal Palace and the entrance arch to the Vittorio Emanuele II Gallery; the Basilica of Santa Maria delle Grazie, which houses the priceless "The Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci; the Teatro de La Scala, one of the most important opera houses in the world. And make sure you explore the bohemian and artistic Navigli, a buzzing waterfront area where great food, art, nightlife and a fantastic atmosphere are guaranteed. For art lovers, we wholeheartedly recommend the Brera district, with its spectacular Pinacoteca.
Meanwhile, Naples is the third largest city in Italy and one of the oldest, most artistic and most surprising in the whole country. An ancient city that seduces the visitor with its street culture, its passion for life and its beautiful expansive bay with views to the imposing Mount Vesuvius. You can start off your tour in its magnificent historic quarter (declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site), home to its famous archaeological treasures, its elegant castles and palaces, its Baroque churches and its outstanding museums. All infused, of course, with the genuine character of one of the most seductive yet chaotic cities in the whole of Italy. Its eclectic fusion of architecture and monuments, unique traditions and culinary delights will take you on a journey stimulating all five senses. And remember! You'll be stepping foot into one of the country's gastronomic temples, where you can savour some of the very best pizzas in the whole of Italy.
Milan and Naples are two amazing cities, so what better way to cover the journey between them than on board a comfortable train? Sit back and admire the stunning scenery of bella Italia as it passes by the window.
