Navigli Canals Boat Trip
On our Navigli Canals Boat Trip, you'll explore a fascinating canal system in Milan. You'll sail along these 12th-century waterways and discover their history with your audio guide in English.
Navigli Canals Boat Trip
At your chosen time, we'll meet up at the Alzaia Naviglio Grande on the banks of the Navigli Canals. We'll welcome you on board and then set sail through one of Milan's most famous districts.
Our boat trip will begin with a glimpse of the Case di Ringhiera, the typical houses of Milan's working-class neighbourhoods. Afterwards, you'll admire views of the 13th-century Church of San Cristoforo.
As we sail through the capital of Lombardy, you'll discover lots of fun facts about the places you see with your audio guide in English. One of the things you'll learn about will be how mascarpone was invented, which we'll find out about as we pass through a nautical alley lined with cheese workshops.
During our boat trip along the Navigli Canals, you'll also see the Canottieri Milano Olona rowing club. With over 100 years of history, it's one of the oldest rowing clubs in Milan. Nearby, we'll find the Vicolo dei Lavandai where the clothes of wealthy families were washed in the 18th century.
Some of the other fantastic sights we'll see during our boat trip will be Scodellino bridge, a dock full of nightlife venues and even one of Leonardo da Vinci's best inventions. Don't forget your camera!
After 1 hour of sailing, we'll arrive back at the starting point and finish our boat trip.
