Amazing Little Book with Many Useful Details - An Excellent Resource for Milan(o)!
This book has served as an outstanding resource during my one-week trip to Milan, Italy - or should I say Milano? It's very well-organized, to the point, and provides moderate information for multiple neighborhoods along with regular touristy stuff. What I love about DK Publishing, in general, is extensive use of pictures, thick gloss paper, use of multiple colors, and practical color-coding; and this book offers all of these elements.

I personally cannot justify spending a week reading Fodor's for one-week trip. So I love this layout; it's so easy to consume that you can scan it on a JFK->MXP flight, and the book is small-enough to carry in your overcoat pocket. The author covers various aspects of everyday tourist life, such as sight-seeing, commute, dining, shopping, and detailed neighborhood maps.

Please note: it's a city-specific guide, so it may not appeal to many tourists because most tourists would plan on visiting multiple cities on a trip to Italy. If your destination is only Milan and its surrounding areas, I would strongly recommend this guide.

Felice Viaggio!

Milan and the lakes
The eyewitness books are very good guiding books and Milan & the lakes did not dissapoint me. It is going to be very useful when I go to Milan.

Milan guide book amazon shippping
The book is a good guide for the area of Milan and the Lakes. However Amazon's delay in shipping this to me in a timely manner meant I went on the trip without the book. So if you use them remember their promise to get you the book you want by a certain date is not valid.
