I was surprised to see the amount of comments expressing concern in regard to safety in and around Milan Centrale.
I was there a few weeks ago and found the station to be very clean and safe. Obviously, all people and especially tourists need be aware of their surroundings, but that applies anywhere.
In fact I was super impressed with the scale and architecture of Milan Centrale, and would regard it as one of the main tourist attraction in Milan, second only to the Duomo and the Galleria.
Also, I found the metro very easy to negotiate, and the quickest and cheapest way to visit the main attractions in the city.
But if it’s unsafe it’s unsafe. It’s ok. It isn’t personal. If you’re a tourist it’s good to know. It doesn’t mean anyone hates the place but there are valid tips
@@LuckyFish3000 You are stating the obvious by saying 'if it is unsafe, it's unsafe'. It is equally valid to say, 'if it's safe, it's safe'. To be honest, both comments are just gobbledegook.
I recounted my experience that I found the place clean and safe, and that I was impressed with its architecture.
I also said that all people, especially tourists, should be aware of their surroundings. That applies to any place you are and not particularly to Milan Centrale.
I went to Milan in July. Didn't have much time in Central Station, but certainly appreciate it as a landmark. It is astonishing, especially at night.
Such a beautiful landmark, it's a grandeur train station in Italy I'd say. Sadly late at night I may not suggest hanging around too long at Centrale station, not the safest place to be.
I hope you found this Centrale FS Complete Guide video useful and enjoyable, let me know if I should make more guides to other stations in Milan of Porta Garibaldi and Cadorna.
This is amazing guide to the station, I highly appreciate you make the subtitles than talking. Its calming to absorb he information, etc.
Thank you so much, glad to hear your feedback and I've been considering a lot between sub vs talk on next videos.
Don't get me wrong, i love both version of how you make your videos 😁😁😁
Maybe you can try alternate between videos. But however you chose to make it, one thing for certain is that i will enjoy your videos and i know they will help me tremendously, or simply informed of many information in general. Thanks again!

Fantastic video...Im glad I subscribed
Thank you so much, feel free to share my videos with family, friends and colleagues planning to visit Milan
Ang laki po ng station ng tren na yan at ang ganda pa, salamat po sa pagbahagi sa amin.
Thank you very much for watching, it's such a beautiful and majestic station.
Best video clip I v ever seen .Thank you very much
Thank you so much. Glad you liked it!
Would you mind lf I d like to know the the fee of luggage deposit at the Milano Centrale Station?
Thanks buddy, very useful important information, I will go to Milano next week. It is less stressful after watch your video. Really appreciate your efforts.
Glad to know you found it useful, have a great time in Milan and still I remind you to always be mindful of your belongings and stay aware of the surroundings, the rest is Milan as beautiful as it is in spring
Thank you so much for telling us where is the free toilet !
Anytime, thank you so much for watching. Feel free to subscribe ☺️
Thanks!! 👍👍👍
Anytime 😊 thank you so much for watching
I enjoyed this one again. Please do a walking tour of Porta Garibaldi and the Porta Nuova shopping district around together with those cool garden apartments.
Thank you for watching, glad knowing you enjoyed this video. Planning some research on Porta Garibaldi station as it is also easily connected to Piazza Gae Aulenti arcade.
How can I take train from Milan to Naples thanks
Hi there! Love the video, calms the nerves about being in the station! I have a train that departs at 6am, what time would you suggest I be there and is it safe being there at around 5:30am as a woman travelling alone?
Hi, thank you so much. Yes 5.30 should be good just go straight to the platform area it should be fine there's police and officials roaming the area. Just be mindful of your belongings.
@@StrollingAround thank you so much!☺️
Your last note of caution is VERY important!
A big city attracts not only tourists, but also thieves and petty criminals who want to take advantage of inattentive tourists.
As much as I love this city, the reality of pickpockets accident is something I always remind to everyone arriving in Milan.
Yes we are full of irregular immigrats.
this has helped me SO much, thank you, A couple questions: I have pre-purchased my shuttle bus from Malpensa to the station and then only have 20 minutes before my train to Bellano Tartavalle. I do have the app and will check in online but do see I have to walk a few minutes to get into the station from the bus stop. Will I be able to make this train with only 20 minutes? If I don't have time to use the toilets will there be one on the train? Thank you!
Usually trains don't always leave on time, but don't risk it. If you are traveling light better take a normal stairs straight to platform level. A good exercise and also the fastest way to reach platform level. There's a toilet available on board the train. Thank you so much for stopping by.
@@StrollingAround not traveling light enough for stairs but I'm fit and will hustle over to the station from the bus stop and use the toilet on the train in case timing is tight. THANK YOU!
Nice one! Thanks for that! Just was wondering, are taxis available at the station around 1:30am? Coming from Malpensa by bus, and then, planning to to get to the hotel by taxi from the station. Is that aafe?
Taxi should be available, but considering safety I don't really recommend being at the station on this hours, if possible better start with taxi all the way to your hotel upon your arrival on the airport.
@@StrollingAround thanks a Lot!
in which zone are you going to stay?
I am your new subscriber! I'll be in Milan in two days and your videos is such a great help for me.
Quick Question: any idea how much roughly a taxi would cost from central station going to Duomo?
Thank you so much, knowing my videos can help others is always a happy news. For the taxi from Centrale to Duomo based on my experience I'd say around 12 - 14 Euro.
@@StrollingAround Thank you for your reply! Excited to experience all of this in Milan soon.
@@aaaannnx you can also easily use the metro line 3 (yellow one) from Centrale to Duomo. It's four stops only ride.
Hi, we are travelling from Zurich to Venice this August and will need to pass by Milan on our way. We were thinking of doing a quick stop of 1hr to see the Duomo. Is 3 hrs enough time to do that including time to get back to Milano centrale? Is it hard to find the luggage area? Just worried we might take a lot of time looking for the storage area because of how big the station is
Hi, if you have around 3 hours it's more than enough plus sightseeing Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and maybe Castello Sforzesco, you can take the Metropolitana M3 (Yellow) from Centrale to Duomo, I made a video about it a month ago. Look for the one exploring Milan for less than $3. For luggage storage please navigate to 11:06 there's a place you can store luggage in Centrale and it's easy to find. I hope this helps. 😊
Hi thank you for these videos!!! It has been really helpful. I will take a train from Florence to Milan and then from Milan going to Zurich and this "connection" to Zurich is only 20 min apart and I am worried I won't make it because of luggage. Do you have any idea If the platforms of these two are close? Bought both tickets with Trenitalia (actually is one ticket that has the entire trip from Florence to Zurich with train exchange in Milan). Than you!!!
Hi, I wish I could help you more with a detailed information on exact platform. They might change depending on the arrivals and delays. But you can try to download an Trenit app both on Apple and Android then find your schedule as there will also be the platform info updating live. Hope this helps.
@@StrollingAround Thank you! You helped a lot I didn’t knew this app! Just downloaded! Thank you 🙏🏼
Hey, I am travelling from Zurich to Rome and was looking for train tickets and had the same doubt if the 20 minutes would be sufficient to change trains (since there is a change at Milan). Just wanted to check how was your experience at the Milan station. I saw that there are around 24 platforms in the station and if the Zurich to Milan train gets delayed do you think I will be able to make the change?
Great video! I'm traveling from Venice to Paris with a train swap in Milan in a few months and am very nervous. I've got about an hour between trains to get from Milan Centrale to Milano P Garibaldi - any tips on the best way to get between to two? Would I need to schedule a taxi ahead of time or can you get one by just going to the taxi area day of?
Hi, the fastest and cheapest way to travel between the two is to use the green line of the subway (called Metro or Metropolitana), which is very frequent during the day (currently the single ticket costs 2.20 euros). The two stations are very close (it would take about 20 minutes on foot), so if the trains are on time, you shouldn't have any particular time problems, 1 hour is more than enough 😁.
Thank you so much for sharing information and great to see this channel started to build a nice community. Exactly as mentioned between Centrale and P. Garibaldi has the option of metropolitana subway (take the Green Line M2) or nice enough to walk to. Taxi can also be an option but bear in mind waiting lines can be long at this period of summer holiday time.
Thank you both! How easy is it to navigate the subway?
@@hannahthomas6336 it's quite easy, head down to Metropolitana floor right under Centrale FS, go to the ticket machine and buy the single ticket for €2.20 then take the Green line (M2). It's only two stops away (Centrale FS - Gioia - P. Garibaldi) around 5 minutes. Basic rules on staying careful and being mindful of your belongings, beware of pickpockets.
Thanks for the video, I find it very informational and helpful!! I am wondering is the station still safe and busy at 11PM during summer (June), I will be arriving to Milan Centrale from Florence around 11PM, and I am a bit worried about being in the station at that time. Thank you in advance :)
Glad to hear that this video is helpful, I would suggest you to be extra careful at that hour in Centrale Station, take care of yourself and belongings at all time. Don't linger too long and better grab a taxi to your destination. Area outside of the station can be bit more intimidating at night. Stay safe.
in which zone are you going to stay?
@@StrollingAround i saw in the video that taxis are availabe in front of the station, will they still be available at night as well?
@@saviraahila7953 Yes, taxi are usually available also during the night, but maybe not as much as during the day time. Please be extra careful when arriving at night specially at later hour
@@StrollingAround any tips to be more extra careful? I am actually pretty anxious is it really that dangerous? Should I book another train schedule to arrive earlier?
Ah informative banget videonya..pas bener mau ke Milan liburan sama keluarga. Thank you mas!! Tak subscribe sekalian.
Mas tanya sekalian kalo train italo apakah perlu di validasi juga?
Oh ya tak liat ada channel fotografi juga, kalo cuma bawa 1 lensa mending 35mm atau 50mm untuk travel italy?
Lastly rekam videonya pake apa mas? 😁
Waduh senang sekali di subscribe borongan di semua channel... Terima kasih. Lanjut ke jawaban:
Tiket kereta hanya butuh validasi untuk jenis printed dari mesin, kalau pesan online atau dari aplikasi tidak perlu validasi. Italo kalau beli dari mesin tiket baiknya validasi juga.
Untuk lensa, mending selebar mungkin kalau buat travel 35mm lebih enak, atau kalau ada kamera pocket yg ada zoom atau wide 28mm malah mendingan simple. Andalan saya masih Ricoh GR. Atau malah HP pun sudah lebih dari cukup.
Selamat berlibur nanti, tetap hati2 yaaa copetnya bahaya Milan.
Rekan video saya cuma pakai Fimi Palm dan HP Xperia 1ii
@@StrollingAround Halo mas thank you buat reply nya. Kami rencana mau ngidernya italy aja, makanya saya pelajari train italo kalo beli dari jauh2 hari lebih murah, tapi masih ada beberapa tiket yg harus beli on the spot sih.. jadinya bakal validasi ya? Tiket milan for 3 days yg di video lain juga tetep divalidasi kan ya.
Untuk kamera saya bawa x100series saja, gak mau repot gonta ganti lensa mau yg ringkes aja tapi belom rela dokumentasi jalan2 pake hp aja. Oh ya leica m8nya cakep euy.. salam dari pengguna sony a6000 juga hahaha.
Wah filmi palm cukup bagus juga ya videonya, lagi kepikiran beli kamera buat video jalan2 juga antara dji action 3 atau dji pocket 2, tapi setelah liat video mas..filmi sepertinya budget friendly.
Again thank you mas, for the info... iya bakal super hati2 ini, istri dah rada parno tapi saya bilang tenang aja yg penting selalu aware sama sekitar. Sukses terus buat channelnya :)
@@BatakGemblung untuk tiket transportasi publik (subway, tram dan bus) begitu dimasukkan ke dalam gate atau mesin validasi maka akan langsung terhitung waktu startnya. Tiket normal €2 berlaku 90mnt, harian 24 jam walaupun nyebrang hari, begitu juga yang multiple days. X100 sudah lebih dari cukup dan simple, saya dulu pakai sebelum pindah ke GR.
Fimi palm enaknya udah built in gimbal lebih stabil dan puas hasilnya. Tapi musuhan sama low light yaaa... kalau udah gelap mending pindah pakai HP aja.
Selamat berlibur nanti dan benar selama waspada kita gak perlu takut banget juga. Terima kasih banyak yaaa.....
When I arrive from the airport on the Malpensa Express, will I already be at platform level?
Yes, you will arrive at the platform level. Malpensa Express trains should arrive and also depart on platform 1 or 2.
Halo mas, trims buat video informatifnya. Mau tanya kalo naik tram bawa koper boleh dan gratis? Kalau nggak taxi dari stasiun ke porta vittoria kira2 berapa ya. Thanks
Satu koper large masih bisa tapi lebih baik jangan di jam berangkat/pulang kantor karena penuh banget. Lebih baik Taxi atau Uber, keduanya bisa dipesan dari Uber app sekalian terlihat estimasi biayanya.
Hello, is public transportation in Milan 24 h available. Because im planning a trip and my plane arrives at 11pm ?
Hello, Metropolitana subway usually ends right after midnight but there are supplement bus service on ground level. Busses circular service still runs at lesser schedule after midnight. If you're with luggage I suggest taxi as better options on late night.
Hello, is there anywhere to do vat refund at the Milan station? I’m leaving from Milan to Zermatt by train.
I'm afraid there's no tax refund office in Centrale station and border cross checking usually just a simple passport check by police. I suggest you make time to the Duomo and go to La Rinascente on the 6th floor you'll find Global Blue tax office there.
Halo mas, makasih ya infonya. Kita bakal landing di Malpensa besok around 10pm, better kita naik taksi aja ya? Kebetulan hotel kita dekat dengan Milan Central Stazione
Halo salam kenal, kalau mau nyaman dan bawaan koper banyak lebih baik pakai taxi lebih aman juga tapi memang biayanya hampir €100. Kalau mau ekonomis tapi harus lebih berhati-hati dan waspada bisa naik kereta express dan shuttle bis. Ada video guidenya juga koq di sini. Selamat berlibur ya...
@@StrollingAround Ah okey, makasih banyak ya mas, appreciate.
Your video is quite informative but could you please add online ticket booking links or guide etc. to help foreign traveller
Thank you so much, I will add up more information on coming videos make sure you're susbcribed
Great video but you didn't mention that all the rail transport in Lombardy region (the region where Milan is located) is actually run by Trenord company. They have their own ticket office next to Trenitalia and they sell their tickets. When travellin to Malpensa airport, Como, Varenna, Bergamo etc people will travel with them and not Trenitalia...
Thank you for the correction, and thank you so much for watching
👍
Thank you, Terima Kasih.
Which exit should we take to go to Crowne Plaza?
Take the WEST GATE exit, then make your way to Via Tonale keep going until you found big intersection with Via Melchiore Gioia. It's a walking distance to but if you have luggage better take Taxi or use metro Yellow Line M3 it's only one stop at Sondrio from Centrale, take the direction to Comasina.
Hola alguien me puede ayudar , explicar cómo llegar al aeropuerto malpenza de central ? Porfavor
Hola, entre el aeropuerto de Malpensa y la estación central, siempre se puede tomar el autobús o el tren exprés de Malpensa.
Hi,Which platform is the Express train to Venice ?
Hi, you will have to check on the announcement board, usually confirmed 15 minutes before departure time
Thanks. Would you recommend buying Malpenso express tickets from airport to Milan Centrale on app or buy on the spot from counter or ticket machine? Is there a Pay and Go service that we can pay by debit or credit card? Appreciate your reply
😂😂😂 Most important STARBUCKS... I agree !
Most important 😂

How dangerous is this place?
In general nothing to worry about, you will see police and security patrolling the area. Just stay aware and be mindful of yourself and belongings.
it used to be a monument. the most beautiful station in Europe. The latest upgrade destroyed the whole beauty
The commercials upgrade at one side gave access to tourist to do some shopping and may generate as revenue to businesses, but it does sacrifice the beauty of this grand station.
@@StrollingAround Stations are public domain and should be maintained with tax payer incomes. they gutted and dismantled part of the station making difficult to understand where to go
Why would any Italian visit Starbucks? It's absolutely mad
Personally, I would suggest going to any Bar around the corner for a quick espresso as they would call it a normal coffee, I guessed Starbucks is the safest spot to order a cup of cappuccino past noon without getting a strange face from the barista. 😆
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
amen
Ciao....
I was approached by a young woman asking me if I could buy her food at the Burger King, she was hungry and didn't have any money. I was cautious in case this could be a scam and declined politely. Now I'm feeling guilty in case she was sincerely hungry and I was being mean 🥲
It does feel heart breaking most of the time and being polite declining is maybe the better way, sadly still I would remind most people to be very careful. I would prefer help through an organization that does help people in need.
