    I plan to be in Milan in the latter part of Nov.

    How far is the Ferrari factory from Milan and how long will it take to drive? I am still working on getting a factory visit but does anyone one know how long the tour is?

    I plan to go into the Turin area. Are there villages/towns in the area worth visiting?

    Finally any recommeded restaurants in Milan and Turin?

    Sorry if it is a bit off topic.

    Nick...

    Luigi is in Milan pretty often, I bet he can give you some nice hints.

    Re: I plan to be in Milan in the latter part of Nov.

    The drive from Milan to Maranello it's about two hours...Milano to Modena it's highway and it is fast , then from Modena exit to Maranello -if you don't take wrong directions as I did- it's quite close.
    The visit it is also about 2 hours and I really liked it.

    Regarding the restaurants, I am not familiar with Turin, I know some in Milan but I think Luigi could be more helpful than me. If not I'll give some advise.
    I live in a town that is in the middle from Milan to Modena, let me know when you will be here and I 'll be pleased to have a drink .
    ciao

    Nick:
    Glad to hear that you're coming!
    RE the restaurants in Milano I would recommend L'altro Luogo di Aimo e Nadia which is inside the Principe di Savoia Hotel (one of the nicest ones in Milano).
    If you want to go to a more glamorous trendy place I would advise you to go to Casablanca (fodd is not as good but it has more hippy atmosphere, models etc...)

    Anyway if I am here the days you are in Milan I'll be glad to come out and have a drink( if you decide to go to Casablanca obviously... ).

    Let me know if you need some help with the Hotel or restaurant reservations, I have some friends here and the best places only accept you if they know who you are.

    I plan to be in Milan Nov.20th and depart the 24th. I am

    staying at the Four Seasons hotel. Also, I plan to be back in Milan on the 28th Nov.

    I am still waiting to hear from Ferrari on the factory tour. That may impact my schedule. However if your in town on those days my wife and I would love to me you at the Casablanca for some "refreshments".

    I'm living in Piacenza, 40 miles south east of Milan, actually on the way to Maranello.
    Where do you live in San Diego? I spent some time in La Jolla when I was student (many years ago) but when possible I stop by also now: I was in L J also last august for a couple of days, I really love San Diego!
