Important Booking Information
Milan's traffic can be heavy, especially during rush hour. The bus is a great way to see the city, but it's not the fastest way to get from A to B if you are in a hurry.
In summer, it can be quite hot on the upper deck, so wear a hat and sunscreen. In winter, dress warmly as the open deck can be chilly.
Keep your ticket safe (or your phone charged) as you will need to show it every time you board the bus.
Be aware of pickpockets in busy areas and when boarding/alighting, as in any major tourist city.
