How to get to San Siro Stadium in Milan
By metro (the easy way)
Take Metro Line 5 (M5, lilac) to San Siro Stadio — the station sits at the foot of the stadium, a two-minute walk from the tour entrance. Coming from the centre, the simplest route is the red M1 to Lotto, then change to M5 for two stops. From around the Duomo the whole trip takes about 30 minutes.
By tram or bus
Tram 16 runs from the city centre out to San Siro and is a scenic, street-level alternative to the metro — slower, but you see the city on the way. Local buses also serve the area from Lotto. Any of these drop you within a short walk of the stadium.
By taxi or car
A taxi from central Milan takes 20–30 minutes depending on traffic. If you drive, there are car parks around the stadium and the nearby racecourse, but spaces are limited and the area gets congested on matchdays, when road closures are common. For a tour on a quiet weekday, the metro is almost always quicker and cheaper.
Aim to arrive 10–15 minutes before your slot. The tour entrance is on the stadium concourse near Gate/Cancello areas — follow the signs for the Museo & Tour once you reach the stadium from the San Siro Stadio metro stop.
