Visit Casa Milan and the new headquarters of AC Milan. The contemporary new building, unveiled for the 2014-15 season, is complete with a museum, store, and the Cucina Milanello restaurant. Browse AC Milan history in the museum, shop for more souvenirs and visit the restaurant for a light lunch.

Spend time in central Milan’s Piazza del Duomo and visit the unique and beautiful Gothic Duomo. The cathedral is easily recognizable because of its unusual roofline, consisting of 135 spires and numerous statues and gargoyles. We will view the cathedral’s beautifully crafted stained-glass windows, the treasury, and the remains of the original 4th century baptistry. We will stroll around the four-story covered double arcade of shops in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, originally designed in 1861 and built by Giuseppe Mengoni between 1865 and 1877. The imposing street is covered over by an arching glass and cast-iron roof, and the central octagonal space is topped with a glass dome. The Galleria connects two of Milan's most famous landmarks, the Duomo and the Teatro Alla Scala.

Enjoy a relaxing and scenic boat cruise on Lake Como. Life is slower around the northern Italian lakes than in mega-paced Milan; Como is an ideal base for drawing breath and kicking back. Sitting on the southwestern tip of Lake Como, the city is essentially a center of commerce with a small medieval quarter and a pretty waterfront. People love the area for its ancient heritage, fine churches, and lake views. Como is the jumping off point for most adventures on the lake and is surrounded by stretches of wooded hiking trails up to Bellagio.

Dinner

Pay homage to 'the beautiful game' in Milan with a guided tour of San Siro Stadium, where both AC Milan and FC Internazionale Milano (aka Inter Milan) play. Inside, we will explore the stadium's public areas and gaze down at the pitch from the tiered seating stands. We will visit the room where post-match interviews and photo sessions take place, and then take a walk through the Tunnel of Champions to the pitch. Often, you can also visit the changing rooms. We conclude in the stadium museum, a place full of football paraphernalia with trophies, cups, shirts, and more.

Attend a professional soccer match featuring teams from the top leagues. Seeing the top talent in the world in person would itself be an unforgettable experience, but add the passionate crowds singing, cheering, and chanting, and you will enter an atmosphere that can only be understood through personal experience.
