What to expect
Once the heart of Milan’s water trade system, the Darsena was the city’s ancient harbour where boats arrived carrying goods and materials. Today, it is one of Milan’s most vibrant meeting points, surrounded by bars, restaurants, and the lively atmosphere of the Navigli district.
The oldest and most famous canal in Milan, the Naviglio Grande tells the story of a city once connected by waterways. Used for centuries for transportation and commerce, it is now a charming area filled with historic houses, artists’ studios, cafés, and authentic Milanese vibes.
Vicolo dei Lavandai
A hidden corner that takes you back in time. Vicolo dei Lavandai was the place where laundry workers washed clothes by hand using the water from the canal. Today, it preserves its old-world charm and offers a glimpse into everyday Milanese life from the past.
Naviglio Pavese
Built to connect Milan with Pavia and the Ticino River, the Naviglio Pavese represents the city’s ambitious engineering history. With its locks and traditional buildings, it combines Milan’s industrial heritage with the modern energy of the Navigli neighborhood.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
