How to join the Milan hop-on hop-off bus
Most travelers start their hop-on hop-off tour near the Duomo or Sforza Castle (Cairoli), but you can join at any official stop along the route. Milan's excellent public transport makes reaching these stops easy.
By Train
From Milano Centrale or Cadorna stations, you can easily reach the main starting points by Metro. Lines M1 (Red) and M3 (Yellow) stop at Duomo, while M1 and M2 (Green) stop at Cadorna/Cairoli near the castle.
By Car
Driving in central Milan is restricted (Area C congestion zone) and parking is expensive. It is best to park at a peripheral metro station (like Lampugnano, Famagosta, or Cascina Gobba) and take the subway to the city center to catch the bus.
By Bus
Milan's extensive tram and bus network connects all neighborhoods. Key tram lines like the 1, 2, 12, and 14 pass right through the city center, making it easy to transfer to the sightseeing bus.
On Foot
If you are staying in the city center, most main stops are within walking distance. The area around the Duomo, Galleria, and Sforza Castle is pedestrian-friendly and easy to navigate on foot.
Why choose the hop-on hop-off bus in Milan
