About Renting a Car at Milan Porta Garibaldi
Porta Garibaldi is Milan's modern train station hub in the northern part of the city, surrounded by the forward-looking Isola district with its skyscrapers and lively restaurants. From here, you can quickly reach the A8 motorway heading north toward Varese and the beautiful lakes of Lombardy, where Lake Como lies just approximately 50 kilometers away. If you instead want to drive south toward Pavia's historic city center, it takes approximately 40 minutes via A7.
Bergamo's charming old town on its hilltop is reachable in under one hour heading east along A4, and the Brescia region with its vineyards and the western shore of Lake Garda is a natural next stop.
