Located at the very foothills of the Alps, Bergamo is the little sister of Milan, but an equally exciting tourist destination. The Orio al Serio airport is close by and there are plenty of hotels ready to serve the clients, so accommodation is not an issue. The city is divided in two, the old town "Citta Alta" being a very popular scene for sightseeing, with buildings dating from the 17th century. Parking spots are few, but with a little determination you can walk most of it and see charming monuments such as the Cittadella, Piazza Vechia, Duomo and much more.

If you are looking for a hotel, it would be for the best to pick one in the lower city "Citta bassa", where the prices are reasonable. This is also where you can go for shopping and enjoy the nightlife.
