A streetcar named desire

You will fall in love with this performing means of transportation that will take you all over the city

Automatically translated

Looking at it from the window
Milan seems to unravel slowly, like the plot of a movie.

Indeed, sitting comfortably in the seat of a moving streetcar , urban parks, historic monuments and glittering store windows of historic stores or glamorous boutiques appear and disappear before the eyes. It's a different way of exploring the city, this. Definitely greener, but also terribly romantic-let's face it-because seated inside these clanking cars one always feels a little more Milanese, even if by adoption.

After all, we are not only talking about one of the most popular and widely used public means of getting around the city, but also about a real piece of history that travels on the rails, so much so that several antique carriages, mostly dating back to the 1920s, are still one of the typical components of the urban fabric of Milan and lend themselves well to being used to organize original sightseeing tours.

Those who do not want to give in to the temptation of a "do-it-yourself" tour - although upon closer inspection, with the ATM app in hand, consulting maps and calculating itineraries, it is easy to reach most of the must-sees independently - can choose from one of the many organized tours.

And if after so much wandering, one does not want to leave the beloved vehicle even at sunset? Romantic spirits in search of intimacy and gourmet dishes can book a dinner aboard ATMosfera, the tram-restaurant that departs from Piazza Castello and travels far and wide in and around the Bastioni enclosure.

While those who want to organize a private, unforgettable and original party can turn to ATM to rent an entire historic streetcar, being able to choose from different models. And what about the die-hards of the nightlife? They will be able to board the Discotram (available only upon request), a real nightclub on the move!
