Milan is ready for Christmas!

TRADITIONS
Did you know that Milan has a special day for setting up Christmas decorations? While the rest of the world does it somewhere in late November or early December, northern Italians have the feast of Saint Ambrose, when they pull out Santa, garlands and other winter toys from their dusty boxes. Each year on December 7, Milan’s main Christmas tree switches on along with other thousands of cozy city Christmas lights and tiny home nativity scenes (presepe) that every Italian family gets ready for the Eve.

Franca & Fiorella,
Thank you both so much for customizing such a wonderful trip around Italy for Brandon and me. We had an amazing time and had a great mix of pre-scheduled things vs leisure time. We really felt that you understood what we were looking for. You were always there to answer my many questions leading up to the trip.
