Select Italy Shines the Spotlight on Milan: What to Do in the City During the Expo 2015
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) January 15, 2015 -- Select Italy (http://selectitaly.com), the boutique travel company specialized in travel to Italy, shines the spotlight on Milan offering a complete array of superior travel products and services for those traveling to one of the most popular 2015 travel destinations.
Milan is preparing for its second Universal exposition, as the city previously hosted the Expo in 1906. The theme, “Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life,” will put the accent on the problems of nutrition and the resources of our planet, making of this edition the first one in history that will take part in societal issues. The exposition will run for 184 days, from May 1 to October 31, and 145 countries will attend the event in a dedicated area northwest of Milan that covers more than 1 million square meters. More than 7,000 events will be held during the Expo and over 20 million visitors are expected, this memorable 6-month event will without a doubt make Milan the must-go destination of Italian travelers in 2015.
Select Italy offers to travelers all its Italian expertise to enhance the Expo experience and get the most out Milan: accommodations, musical & cultural event tickets, museum reservations, transportation services, food & wine services, and guided tours. Milan is a cradle of art and home of some of the best attractions that Italy praises, among them Select Italy recommends:
- The Last Supper by Leonardo Da Vinci
- The Pinacoteca di Brera Art Gallery
- The world's most famous opera house La Scala Theatre and Piccolo Theatre, which usually closes during the summer, will both remain open for the whole year in occasion of the Expo, broadening their concert seasons.
Finally, in order to continue the food theme outside the Expo’s pavilions, Select Italy suggests taking the 3-hour Milan for Foodies Small Group Tour or the 4-hour Small Small Group Milanese Cooking Class.
“Milan and its region will be a pleasant surprise for the millions of people visiting. With great treasures like the Last Supper and La Scala to little-known pleasures – including great food – have often flown under the radar of travelers to Italy,” says Andrea Guglielmino, Director of Marketing. “As there are many opportunities offered in the city we recommend travelers to start planning their visits to museums, opera performances and tours in advance. They won't be disappointed.”
