The distance from Milan (Milano) to Genoa (Genova) is 150 kilometers. Getting from Milan to Genoa is the fastest by train, but you can save a little and go by bus. Experienced travelers may consider renting a car. One way road will take about 2 hours.

Read more about the pros and cons of each method below.

By train

Regional trains leave for Genoa from Milan Central Station (Milano Centrale) about 2 times per hour. One way ticket costs about 15 euros, travel time from 1 hour 34 minutes to 2 hours. In Genoa, the main station is called Genova Piazza Principe, from where you can walk to Piazza Raffaele de Ferrari in 20 minutes on foot along the port.

I advise you to leave Milan by the morning train at 08:10, 08:30 or 09:10 in order to be in time for Genoa by dinner.

Remember that lunch in Italian restaurants is scheduled from 12:00 to 14:30.
