Milan is the major city of northern Italy and stands 360 miles north of the capital Rome. The city is a large urban area spread between the plain of the River Po and the foothills of the Alps and the Italian Lakes. Hiring a car from Milan Linate Airport means you’ll be perfectly positioned just four miles to the east of the city centre. It’s a popular airport for domestic and flights from within the EU, while Milan’s main airport, Malpensa, is 30 miles away from the city. This means Linate passengers have a much easier drive to the centre: the SP14 road leads straight from the airport to one of the inner ring roads.
If you arrange car rental at Milan Linate Airport, you’ll be able to drive straight into the city quickly and tour its attractions. Use the series of orbital ring roads to escape the worst of Milan’s jams. Within the inner ring road, you’ll find it’s a major European centre for fashion and design. Look out for boutiques, shops and galleries everywhere. But Milan is also full of classic historic landmarks too, like the impressive Gothic cathedral and La Scala opera house. The Brer district is good for bohemian cafes and antique shops while the domed Vittoria Emanuele mall is an inspiring place to go shopping.
