It makes for a super convenient and economic way to get from the airport or the Sheraton if you are staying there, to Milan! This review is if you're trying to get to Milan from T1 or the Sheraton. Make sure to purchase your ticket to get off at the Cadorna stop. Tickets are 13 euros each way. Make sure to have your ticket handy, as they have train staff come through to scan tickets. There have been times where they don't come by, but always make sure to have your tickets. You can purchase your tickets inside the terminal and then take the escaltor down to the track. It's super easy. Malpensa Express to Cardona takes about 45ish minutes. It is not non-stop, there are some stops along the way.

When living in the Centro Storico section of Milan we used this service often and boarded at the Cadorna train station. Have your ticket ready to scan for access to the platform and to show the train conductor. See the departures board at the station for track assignment. In our experience, Malpensa Express has a dedicated track at each station so if you use it often, you know where it will be. When purchasing tickets specify if you want to arrive at the Malpensa T1 or T2 station. One terminal is for flights within Schengen, the other is for destinations that require boarder crossing. Your flight confirmation should specify which terminal you are leaving from. Malpensa Express trains are 'direct'. When traveling from Cadorna to T1 the trip takes just over half an hour and costs one way thirteen euro. A direct train to T2 takes 3/4 of an hour for the same price. Other direct trains depart from Centrale station and Garibaldi station. All are the same price. Be sure you are using the Malpensa Express website to book these 'door to door' trains online. Each trip is under an hour in duration and conveniently arrive right below the airport. The trains offer overhead luggage racks for small bags, some storage is located behind/between seats and many cars have luggage racks by the door. All carriages are 1st class, the seats are comfortable and as there are no stops, there is no worries about missing your stop. Malpensa is the 'end of the line' or when leaving from the airport, your station of choice is the 'end of the line'. Several stations in Milan offer this direct Express service but not all of them. In these cases, you will need to book a separate train to reach your final destination or use the Metro. For a train, you may want to try the Trenitalia.com website for an English version of the Italian train service. Metro information is at milanpublictransport.com/metro-milan/ When you purchase your ticket from one of the many ticket machines at the station, be sure to 'punch' the ticket at one of the small green boxes on the platform to validate the ticket. If you purchase the ticket online bring a printout or have a screenshot ready for the conductor. You can purchase your ticket from the ticket agent at the airport station upon arrival. Follow the signs for Malpensa Express down to the lower level. A ticket counter is located at the top of the escalators and ticket machines are off to one side. The agents are not known for being chatty in English. All you need to know is how many biglietti you need ('bee-eht-tee') and what station you are trying to reach: Centrale, Garibaldi, etc. The ticket machines offer a number of language options - just touch the British flag icon for English.

**Bernina Express & St Moritz from Milan**…read more LONG day out but so worth it! Meeting time is 7am. Anna was our tourguide. Big group was divided into 2 buses: English and Italian-speaking... Bus left Milan at 7:20am, WiFi in the bus not reliable. The drive is 2.5 hours from Milan to St Moritz (bring passport). We were given 2.5 hours to walk around and take pictures of the frozen lake and watch the cross-country skiers. After a quick grocery store lunch, we boarded the red Bernina train for the most gorgeous train ride to Tirano. We felt like Anna and Elsa in winter wonderland. Every turn of the train provided gorgeous postcard-like scenery. Both bus and train rides were comfortable, there were multiple bathroom breaks and a ton of great memories. So glad we did this organized tour. Arrived back in Milan at 8pm.

We took a bus tour in Milan two days ago. I changed seats twice to find one where the audio track…read moreworked. I finally got a clear one. Probably 70% of the tour was devoted to scratchy music. When we did get audio guidance, it was out of sync with the tour, so we had difficulty figuring out where we were and what we were seeing. Unfortunately, there was no person handling the tour who could explain what we were seeing as we approached, and answer questions. As I expressed to my partner, I'd have gotten more joy had I simply lit a 50 euro note on fire and watched it burn.

What a complete waste of money. Today I took a ride with them on one bus that had their logo across…read morethe window making it impossible to see the city. Their audio track was not set correctly to the point it would say things like "on the left at #41" and I would look and we were at #49 and going up. So you're telling me about something we already passed. I missed it. Thanks. Switched to another bus to see a different part of the city and get a better seat to discover 1) same problem with the audio we were 2-4 min past things when the audio told us about them. 2) the bus went off the route and the guide wasn't sure why so we missed some sights. Then 3) the air conditioning didn't work. It was 34C (93F) and we were in traffic so it was a sweat box. When I complained I was told "well this bus has a problem with its system" stop talking. Do not put us on a bus in this heat that you know doesn't have working AC. Still I was told "it's not our fault it's the bus" I'm sorry whose bus is it? Oh yes yours. Am I blaming you the tour guide? No. Am I saying your company should know better and do better? Yes. Do not use this company. Absolutely a waste of money. I got out and paid for a taxi to somewhere else in the city to see sights.

There are a couple of shops inside to get essentials or a snack/drink before getting on your train, and a Carrefour Express across the way for basic grocery essentials. The station is easy to follow, with the huge red posts being an iconic and instantly recognisable symbol of the station. Not too big, or exciting, but certainly does the job, even though it certainly can't compete with Milano Centrale. 3*
