is there any way to get to the Milanello other than a car or a taxi? and if no, how much will it cost approximately for a taxi from Duomo to the Milanello?!

any help would be much appreciated, thank you :5ok:

there's no public transportation... you need to drive there, or take a taxi... and the taxi you will need both ways, plus the wait while you are there, so be prepared to pay a lot... now, you need to make sure you go to Milanello the right day, and at the right time...

It takes approximately two hours to get to Milanello from Milano with public transportation.
First you take the train from Milano to Varese.
From the bus station at Varese you take the bus towards Carnago (usually from track 5 or 6).
The bus doesn't go straight to Milanello, so you will have to ask the driver. If he knows the area well, he will drop you off at the beginning of Via Milanello and from there it's only 5-10 minutes away on foot.

Buona fortuna!

By car it takes about 45 minutes to get there...

What was said about making sure it's the right day and time is probably true. They do not just let fans wander the grounds, so do not expect to walk in. I've seen them open the gates for fans AFTER 99.99% of the players have already left. If it's autographs you want, most of the players are willing to be stopped as they drive out of the gates. If you are going to see a practice, the main field is behind the building and is not viewable from the gates or the road. You would have to find out if they are having a scrimmage on one of the outer fields which can be seen from the road.

thanks a lot guys, and ill make sure to contact them and ask the concierge at my hotel to help me too. thanks for the public transportation directions.

i mainly just want to watch practice, and if possible visit the facilities, i know i have no big chances of meeting the players. even though Massaro promised me 2-3 weeks ago when he was here in Toronto he'll let me meet the players lol but i know he was just kidding. ill be in Milan next week for the derby, hopefully it will be the beset experience of my life =)

thanks again...

My experience is that you'll have to travel by train, followed by bus. Usually it's quite straightforward (without traffic) but on a match day, my Italian friend said that you have to leave early for the stadium. Jxx
