Rick I've always enjoyed your work but now that I've heard that you're paying your staff during this pandemic wile everyone is grounded I've found a new respect for you
He's such a nice person! A grade school teacher has us watch his show....and as an adult he still comes across exactly the same way- just a really great person!
How I long for Europe. Far away in Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 West Africa, I have been traveling in Europe with Rick Steves from my bed since I was 9 years old. I am now 19 years old and my biggest wish is to be there in person one day. How I wish I was born in Europe and I am sure I would never spend a day without joy. My love for Europe developed when I started watching movies that depict the middle ages of the Continent. I am currently learning German 🇩🇪 and French 🇫🇷 hoping 🙏 that I could get I job that could make my dream of visiting my far away darling. To all the Europeans, please 🙏 take good care of the continent, love each other, and preserve the most beautiful culture of all time. Long Live Europe and Its Culture.
i never thought i would watch this kind of show/video. it's like a tv show that i totally would skip when i was a kid and now i'm loving it lol it's so relaxing
2024 hi everyone. I fell in love to this channel around 2017 or 2018 when I was in my lowest point of life. Now I'm trying to gain my life back and I'm still here watching his videos over and over. Not because I want to travel to the places featured here but I like to watch the videos he did. Idk, I also like the way he speaks and the way the whole video is. It's calm and relaxing at the same time tranquil and exciting. Knowledgeable too.
These old skool story guides always show me what i need to see! I cant bare watching a modern vlogger or blogger walking around like someone gives a sgit what theyr eating!
Every morning, I make myself a cup of coffee and sip it while watching Rick Steves' on PBS. This episode was on today, Amalfi Coast yesterday. Oh my goodness, Italy looks like heaven on Earth. I so wish to travel to Europe someday. From the landscape to the art, buildings, ruins, and people - Everything is so breathtakingly beautiful and timeless! In the meantime, I'll travel vicariously with Rick :)
Ms.N.Dutton,...good morning!...please go and you will never be sorry....Europe is one of the best places on earth to explore....nothing is impossible...please make plans....when covid is over....God bless dear....
@@lucybencini1083 Thank you for your encouraging words, Lucy! I definitely want to travel to Europe in the next 5 years. The continent is calling me. My ancestors came from all corners of Europe - Most of them immigrated to the US after WW1, so only 100 years ago. Not long in the scheme of things!
Lake Como is truly amazing. We rented a 2 bedroom flat in Belagio with lake view and it was exquisite. Best gelato ever! The beauty of this place is breathtaking.
As a viewer, you don't realize how much work goes into this. I'm sitting home during the pandemic, watching Rick Steves and dreaming of future travels to these wonderful places.
Year 2020, April, Britain is in lockdown due to COVID 19 and Rick Steves' guides are a great way to travel to fascinating parts of the world in comfort and safety.
Lago Maggiore is beautiful too.Quieter than Como, you can get lost in the mountains and valleys around the lake, and there are pretty towns and villages to visit. I live by the side of the lake and see it every day from my house and I feel very lucky!
This video is from 2006, so before the crisis, from that year many things changed. In the last years we built new beautiful skyscrapers and we renovated many parts of the city, not only the old town, and some of the 60 ancient farmhouse out of the city with a respectful design. In terms of mobility we can be proud about our new electric car and bike sharing system that, integrated with an always better public transportation system, could really stop our bad habit to use private car. We also understood that we have to open our great private gardens. In the last year, thanks to expo and all the investments made for it, i've really seen Milan as an European Capital and I hope we will restart to attract talents from abroad. We are on the right way. Bella Milano
I'm Milanese and proud of my city! Your comment is true, Milan has become an European Capital and a touristic place! Senza togliere nulla a Venezia/Roma/Firenze/[tutte le mete turistiche d'Italia] Milano è degna di essere chiamata meta turistica e città all'avanguardia in sotto quasi tutti gli ambiti!! :D
I injoy the idea that I can hear the sweet music in the breeze; feel continuity, listening for inward drives, pointing at my goals! Appreciation is offered to all nature.
I'm sure much has changed the city of Milano since CoVid. Many shoppes may still be closed. Fashion industry probably has plummeted. Some clothing stores in US are going out of business. Now, people no have more time than money.
Looking at these beautiful cities always gives me a peace of mind. As modern as it can be, it always manages to fascinate me by its ancient traces of the bygone past which can be found in the color theme, the pace of life, the old castles, etc.
Lovely! In summer 2017, we stayed at a family-run Airbnb across the lake from Varenna in Menaggio. While there, we visited Varenna & nearby Bellagio (all gorgeous), along with excursions by high-speed train from Milano to Venezia, and by rental car to Recco, Camogli, St Margherita, & Portofino. Rick is right - Varenna is beautiful and peaceful. The best side trip on Lago di Como was taking a tour of Villa del Balbianello, arriving by charter boat. It's extraordinary, really just beyond belief. After this crazy COVID era passes, if you get a chance, visit the villa and others around the lake. The people and sights are wonderful!
I visited Milan in January 2016 and it was one of my favorite cities. Looking forward to returning there in 4 years, during my university exchange in Europe.
You Tube is the window of the world. I never thought I'd see places like Milan, nor did I have any inkling of what beautiful places in this world looks like. Thank you Rick Steves.
When I become president of our country I will make sure that everything in our place is beautified. All the place is cleaned, there should be flowers everywhere, no dirty street vendors, there should be many parks w/ the whole place covered by beautiful trees,flowering plants, lagoons and everything. Very nice place.
love love love florence,been there 8x, went to milan 18 months ago and loved it as much, as is como. Milan has NYC vibe w/o the attitude, cleaner and great metro,stayed outside city at 4 star hotel for 75E
Both Milan and Lake Como were great. Milan was surprisingly fantastic and was a dark horse - good food, nice people, efficiently run, good metro. The buildings themselves were a bit older and less precisely kept (unless you were in the Quadrilateral area which looks amazing). I didn't feel unsafe at all. It was a welcome change to Paris, which felt unsafe and underwhelming. Lake Como however was not as good as expected, but still pretty good. Managed to get to Bellagio, Varenna, Menaggio and Villa del Balbianello in one day with some good planning. The scenery was fantastic, but it felt a bit touristy. Food was decent. Might be worth staying a few nights if you would like to relax. I agree with Rick, Varenna was the best town. Bellagio was ok but too touristy, Menaggio was too sleepy, and Villa del Balbianello was alright, but wasn't as good as expected. In both places, note that the pollution and haze levels were quite high, because of the mountains trapping in the polluted air. So keep that in mind.
Would love to see Lake Como again, it was so beautiful & peaceful, I've never felt more relaxed in my life. And I would highly recommend the hotel I stayed at (The Hotel Villa Aurora) to anyone thinking of visiting Como, the hotel itself was lovely & homey, the food in their restraunt delicious & the family who ran the hotel couldn't have been nicer or more welcoming.
Milan and Lake Como form a juxtaposition of urban sophistication and natural splendor, offering visitors a rich tapestry of experiences that highlight Italy's diverse allure.
I’ve no words to express how beautiful this video is. The history of Milan is concentrated in few but significant words and the Como lake is indeed as shown in the imagines. Thank you Mr. Steves
My grand parents live half a year in Germany and half a year in Loveno, Menaggio at the lago di como. Always been there during my summer holidays. Love it!
These places are picture perfect places to live a quiet life. So beautiful and serene for home life.This place I another full of tourist and tourist lovers. Did you 're that trolley huge to carry all those tourist the mountains the buildings. The food ,yes a great place to call home. THANKS Mr Steve's I watched many of your travels down through the years and always enjoy watching once again.
It was during my honeymoon, in December 2001, that I first visited Italy, and Milan. Italy is a very particular country, where everybody - and I mean absolutely everybody, including street sweepers with their fashionable uniforms - is well dressed. It combines ridiculous labour customs (the staff of a bank was on strike, and so was the ATM) with imaginative solutions to practical problems, such as "how do I deal with a wardrobe at an exhibition that can hold 10 coats at the most". The Italians solved it, very elegantly, and very well dressed. Milan is a sometimes strange place. There's some seriously dodgy architecture to be found, sometimes not very far from the beautiful grand buildings. And then there's the Duomo, which is unbelievable. I love Gothic architecture, especially on cathedrals such as the ones of Cologne, Paris and Florence, but the one in Milan is a giant fractal made of white marble. Would I go back there? I don't know. The biggest disadvantage of Italy, if you could name it that, is that it's an incredibly beautiful country. There *is* a reason why it has the most Unesco World Heritage sites. There's so much to see, and I've seen so little of it. Milan has to compete with Rome, Florence, Venice, Pisa, Siena... the list is sheer endless.
By far the best video about my city, now, after 20 years it’s completely different with new modern parks and skyscrapers in historically poor and industrial areas of the city and that makes me proud, however there is a lot more to do, will see in another 20 years

no doubt he is such a phenomenal travel blogger and writer, Milan comes alive so grandly before a global audience enjoying a guided tour of the spectacular Italian metro.
Beverly hills of Milan? Milan makes Beverly Hills look like a red light district. Great episode, but you cant compare any american city with Milan's fashion. Its the best in the world. Thanks Rick Steves -- this was a very helpful episode!!
One correction: not all arias were tied to the independence of Italy. It was the "Va Pensiero", the Hebrew slaves chorus (from the Nabucco opera) that impacted the Italians so much that they tied it to Verdi and the future king Vittorio Emanuele. They had VERDI mean Vittorio Emanuele Re D'Italia. The initials were composed to support Vittorio Emanuele's rise to kingdom.
For me this video was a trip down memory lane because I was in Milan and Lake Como last May. To see the familiar monuments and the gob smacking beauty of Lake Como was such a fantastic experience. Added to that Steves' tidbits of information completed the virtual visit to this paradise on earth.
I love Rick and these shows. The're just fantastic. One thing I'll never figure out until I run into him is why he never puts the backpack all the way on.
Stunning beautiful far more than many other great cities and lake como beats the cote d'azur. And the magnificent buildings in Milan far outshine London and Paris which I know well.
Year 2020, I am fascinated with every journey Rick takes me on but especially this one. This romantic must go there. Rick, you are such a supreme host and so very knowledgeable and likable. Oregon, USA

this series is so timeless and better than most of the contemporary documentaries. Excellent!
Italy is such a beautiful place. One day I will visit this heaven on Earth.
Lake Como is undoubtedly the most beautiful on earth, breathless beauty ! Italy is the most beautiful country on earth.❤
Been to Milan and Lake Como, absolutely breathtaking but not cheap. Well worth the visit no matter the cost.
No one does things better than the Italians. Such class in everything they do. Note how elegantly the people are dressed !!!
Just go out from italy and visit other countries of europe. And im sure that you will so many better things all over there in europe

Lake Como could possibly be one of the best places on earth. Loved the scenery.

It's a grand setting, romantic.

Lake Como is vibrantly dotted with colorful structures, yet peaceful and serene with the cool lake.
I was surprised by the sheer beauty of these places.
I live near Varenna and I am surprised every morning when I see the lake from my terrace. Visit Milano and Lake Como
Rick's been a part of my family, for as long as I can remember. New trips never happened, without Rick's guides. ;)
I can live my entire life in Italy and it still won't be enough!

Italy is beautiful, Its People are Beautiful, Italy will Recover, it will !!!
Thank you for the lovely insight Mr. Rick Steves sir. I always look forward to your commentary!
GREAT, FABULOUS MILAN & LAKE OF COMO,,
I would always watch Rick with my parents and it was wholesome and edifying and a celebration of our rich cultural patrimony.
My husband & I were in Milan & Lake Como last May for a vacation & it was very enjoyable. The places were beautiful .
Vacations are always beautiful as you plan it ahead. Don't want to meet those around railway station

Rick, 1n the 70's I lived in Milano for over a year. Loved it. Also lived in Lake Como. I pray someday to go back. Thanks for your many trips you share. Best regards, Kenneth Lewis

Very beautiful nice Milan & Lake Como Thank for Ricky Steve's.
no doubt he is such a phenomenal travel blogger and writer, Milan comes alive so grandly before a global audience enjoying a guided tour of the spectacular Italian metro.
Steve is great. I like his voice, tour guiding clips, especially No advertising from TH-cam. He turned it off. 👍👍👍💚
Beverly hills of Milan? Milan makes Beverly Hills look like a red light district. Great episode, but you cant compare any american city with Milan's fashion. Its the best in the world. Thanks Rick Steves -- this was a very helpful episode!!
RichardRiddick78 oh lighten up. he wasn't literally comparing them, only stating that they had equivalent roles within their respective cities.
RichardRiddick78 there’s an element of that to Milan, but for the average person New York is a nicer place to live than “mailand”
You are so amazing. I loved the way you narrated "The last supper" painting. I was in tears. You are amazing Rick.
Three more weeks and we'll be there. Part of the anticipatory fun is watching Rick highlight this glorious part of Italy. Ciao bella Italia.....

Rick I've come to really love your work and who you are over the last few years. we are all lucky you have you.
One correction: not all arias were tied to the independence of Italy. It was the "Va Pensiero", the Hebrew slaves chorus (from the Nabucco opera) that impacted the Italians so much that they tied it to Verdi and the future king Vittorio Emanuele. They had VERDI mean Vittorio Emanuele Re D'Italia. The initials were composed to support Vittorio Emanuele's rise to kingdom.
i discovered this channel so late...its a great relief during quarantine period..cant travel now..but this channel is a peace to the eyes
Thank you for this beautiful video of dream places!!! Such an inspiration!
I extremely love the Italian architectures. They're the most beautiful and complex that i've ever seen.

Just loved Bellagio. If I could afford to I would live there. Probably my favourite place in the world.
did you arrive by train, bus, or private car? I'm trying to plan a visit.

Hallo Susan
Splendid tour, beautiful camera-work, insightful narratives...thank you!
For me this video was a trip down memory lane because I was in Milan and Lake Como last May. To see the familiar monuments and the gob smacking beauty of Lake Como was such a fantastic experience. Added to that Steves' tidbits of information completed the virtual visit to this paradise on earth.
I love Rick and these shows. The're just fantastic. One thing I'll never figure out until I run into him is why he never puts the backpack all the way on.
This is such a relaxing show to watch...😍
Thank you Rick Steves, you are the best!
Stunning beautiful far more than many other great cities and lake como beats the cote d'azur. And the magnificent buildings in Milan far outshine London and Paris which I know well.
Thank you to like my town so much!
Thank you so much Steve for showing Milano , I really enjoyed it .
Year 2020, I am fascinated with every journey Rick takes me on but especially this one. This romantic must go there. Rick, you are such a supreme host and so very knowledgeable and likable. Oregon, USA

I admire the great cathedrals that took so long to build and give such glory to God.
