This was my first trip abroad in 17 years so had been a little apprehensive but the organisation (accommodation, flights, match tickets) was excellent. Unfortunately we were a little let down by Easyjet but getting around Milan once we got there was so easy. The Metro is excellent! As for the San Siro, what a magical place to watch football! Great seats, fantastic armosphere and a 5 goal thriller! Just watch out outside the stadium for Aftricans touting wristbands - we certainly were ripped off! We also had time in the city around Duomo and it is all pretty spectacular. So in spite of Easyjet and the weather, my son Jamie and I had a really good time. Watching football at the San Siro is really amazing, so glad we made the trip.

Tip: Metro is so easy to use and such good value. As i said though just be careful to look out for a few dodgy peddlers around the stadium.

Milan is a good night out, the San Siro is a great stadium. Footballbreak.co.uk were great after we had an initial trip cancelled. Great customer service from the whole team. Well done all.

Tip:  Taxis are pretty good prices and the metro is very easy to use.

was very happy with the service and customer service and will be returning again next year to book a few more trips with my partner coming with me.

I have used Football Breaks a few times in the past few years and have always had a great experience. They were top again with everything as the game got moved only a few days before kick off and the tickets were going to be delivered to the hotel but in the end they sent us e tickets. Any query i had they responded to straight away! The Hotel was a 4 star we picked which was very good.

The game was a great 0-0 with chances for both sides and a last minute from Donnarumma which was awesome to see live and the fans reaction. At the end Donnarumma chucked his shirt and shorts in crowd. The atmosphere was absolutely amazing and so loud as we was in the Ultras section one of the best and passionate about. I had been to the San Siro before a while back for the tour but to actually watch a game was so good vs a great team in Napoli. We made the experience better to feel part of it by buying a AC Milan shirt and scarf to fit right in. Forza Milan!

Football Breaks yet again deliver each time for a Football weekend abroad without any hassle!"

Everything went like clockwork. We especially liked the idea of printing off our match tickets, as it took away the element of when are our tickets going to arrive at the hotel. E-Mail communications were excellent throughout, particularly changes to match kick-off time. Milan is a vibrant city, easy to get around by tram and metro.

Tip: Purchase a day ticket for the tram / metro / bus. Only costs €4.50 Used it to get from the hotel into Milan City Centre and also to the San Siro. Limited time for sightseeing, take the Hop-On/Hop-Off Open Top Bus from near Milan Cathedral. 1 ticket covers all 3 routes.

This is the first time we had done anything like this but will definetly be doing this again because the experience is the best ever.....we have all flown before but not for a football match (well not all the lads) the hotel was spot on four star less than two minute walk from the main train station. The city itself (Milan) is beautiful the buildings, architecture, the cathedral , main square , shopping centre etc, etc

Tip: Yes if by travelling by train please validate your train tickets (little yellow boxes) at start of platform put you ticket inside to register and print time on your ticket. Not only us but loads of people got caught out by this and a extra 9 euroes each to pay on train or 55 euro fine if not.........

an amazing trip...everything was so simple and well organised..my husband absolutely loved this short break that was a 50th birthday treat. A really good value for money trip.

Tip!

the metro is so simple to use....it will take you straight to the stadium so you don't need to stay close by...you can stay closer to the city centre.

Brilliant trip. Correspondence with Football Break prior to, the information they gave us, the price and atmosphere at the San Siro were all absolutely spot on. Would highly recommend.

Tip: Get to the stadium early and spend time having a couple of beers outside and taking in the atmosphere with the locals.

Booking with Football Breaks for the first time I was obviously concerned. I hadn’t heard of them previously but the deals on the website were easy to negotiate and so decided to give it a go. Right from the booking, everything went very smoothly! Payments were taken in two instalments and information was sent out around 2 weeks before the departure. Everything was booked and very easy. Flights were smooth, transfer from Milan Airport was simple via train and underground however there was a shuttle bus available which we used on our return. There was very little around the area, so you did need to go searching for a pub and food. The hotel was basic but certainly served our needs and the reception were always very helpful with directions and modes of transport. The atmosphere at the San Siro was excellent and our seats couldn’t have been any better on the half way line 2nd Tier 3rd row! There are plenty of food options and merchandise stalls around the ground. There are also plenty of things to do in the city. I recommend a trip to the canals in the evening where there are plenty of places to eat and drink and sightseeing at the Duomo! All in all, a superb trip, excellent value for money and we will 100% be booking with Football Breaks again for next seasons adventure..

Tip: There is not a lot around the ground for before kick off! So don’t get there too early. Culture is very different to British games. If possible, take in a Stadium your and a trip to the Milan Museum

Booking the trip was easy, sorting the hotel and flights was seamless. Great trip, very enjoyable. Hotel was clean and tidy and the staff friendly and helpful. The ground staff were helpful adding to the overall weekend and the chance to explore Milan's sights and restaurants.

Tip: The only thing i would recommend is that future visitors to the San Siro should be warned that the seats (if the weather is wet) are filthy. People climb over and step on seats to gain access to their own. The staff selling drinks and snacks also do the same, so it's advisable to take either wipes or something to sit on.

Everything was brilliant the hotel was very nice and close to the stadium. The service from football break was amazing and the whole experience of the trip was excellent!! The atmosphere in the stadium was insane!! Brilliant game!

Tip: There isn’t many restaurants ‘close’ by so you would have to get a taxi or bus to the centre of milan but there is a brilliant little pizza takeaway around the corner

This is my 3rd time using football breaks PSG,Barelona & AC.Both me & my twins boys age 11 years old love every minute thanks

All round it was one of the best experiences I have had. from booking it was easy an was updated when needed to know any think an the seat was excellent

Tip: I would book a extra day in any city as all ways some think more to do then watch the game i did an still needed more time.

Excellent customer service, quick responses to email queries.

Tip: Use the train to get to Milan from the airport, easy to use and only 12 euros each way.

Overall the trip went really well. The hotel was great, 3 days was the right amount of time to see the city and all the information given by football break.co.uk was usefull and efficient.

Tip: Yes, try to get information on the bus routes before you go as they are more difficult to navigate than the Metro!

The booking process is extremely simple and straightforward with good communication and regular email updates. All documents required are sent well in time. The only tricky bit was the printing of the boarding passes on the Easyjet website. Why Easyjet insists on getting you to 'check in' online is a total mystery as you still have to check in at the airport. Long queues at the so called 'bag drop area' (check in desks really) so make sure you allow at least 45min for your 'bag drop'. Boarding is also the usual long queue and generally runs late. Flight with Easyjet need no further explanation...

We decided to use the train/metro from Malpensa Milan airport to out hotel. It is quite a long way where you have to get the (free) bus shuttle from Terminal 2 to T1 and catch the train there. The train goes via Saronno to Milan Central. From there we caught the Metro to our hotel metro station and a 10min walk. Clean and efficient trains and metro. A bit of a shock when we got to street level in the Financial District of Milan; grafiti on every building (yes really) gave the impression of a very rough neighbourhood. It wasn't until the end of the next day that we realised that every building in Milan has grafiti on some wall somewhere. Unbelievable but true. Once you get 'used' to that Milan is a truly beautiful city with friendly people and we felt pretty safe all the time.

Only in very busy places such as the Duomo Square you need to watch your purse/wallet. At those places there are also very intimidating street sellers trying to flip on wristbands with cable-ties(!). Keep your hands in your pocket and avoid them. Otherwise Milan is very enjoyable with some amazing sights, sites, shops and green spaces.

On Sunday night we watched AC Milan play at the San Ciro stadium. An amazing experience with some great Italian football. Very safe around the stadium, great atmosphere and amazing views. Instead of burger vans you get Panini vans with char-grilled peppers instead of onions. A few chip stands but very few fried food. How refreshing! Lots of AC Milan memorabilia stands of course. Hotel was superb and comfortable in a good area; some good little restaurants if you go off the beaten track. Good value too. A great experience overall and a very enjoyable weekend.

Tip: We decided to stay in a hotel as close to the San Ciro as possible and we were glad we did as the match did not finish until very late. We could walk back to the hotel and was safe to do so.

The package was brilliant as it was everything we needed, meaning all we had to worry about was printing off boarding passes and match tickets. It was very easy and something that I will look to do again, without a doubt.

We didn't really need much service from FootballBreak reps, but whenever we got it, we always got polite emails full of all the information we needed and with contact numbers in case of a problem. It was a shame to see the San Siro half full due to AC Milan fan protests/decline, but the noise generated inside was still tremendous - especially from the Sampdoria fans sitting above us. As for Milan itself, it is a very pretty city full of friendly people, and is somewhere I'd like to return to.

Tip: Be careful directly by the cathedral (Duomo) as there are people who try to take advantage of tourists by forcing wristbands on you, then trying to charge you €10 per band - they will chase you too! Best bet is to keep your hands down and if anyone grabs you, pull away. Don't be fooled by their niceness. Also, go to the river (Naviglio) if you have time. It's full of bars and restaurants, plus the view at night is remarkable.

Really enjoyed our trip to Milan. It was great to visit one of the legendary stadiums of Europe and even half full the atmosphere in the San Siro was good. Hotel Berlino was excellent. Clean, fairly quiet, friendly staff and superb breakfast. Being situated on the edge of Milan meant we had to use the trams which was easy and we enjoyed as we got to see more of the city and not just the centre.
We took a train up to lake Como where we also got to see a third division game between Como and Lumezzane in their stadium which is right on the Lake, awesome.

Overall we had a great time and the package from footballbreaks was well organized. Thanks.

The hotel near the canals in Milan was great. Good location for food and transport was close. At first like most location it was difficult to find but it was great. The seats was great and worth the price.
Being opposite the inter (away fans) was great. As a milan fan It was great to see the rivalry between the fans.

The service i received from footballbreak.co.uk was fantastic. They kept me updated with news regarding the hotel, match tickets and any possible changes to the game on that particular weekend.
