Flying into Bergamo

Located at the foot of the Alps, Bergamo is a small town and commune in Northern Italy. The Il Caravaggio International Airport is located less than three miles from this charming city. Part of Milan's airport system, Il Caravaggio served over seven million passengers in 2010 and operates flights for over twenty airlines.

Transportation in Bergamo

The city is small and is easily travelled on foot, although purchasing a Bergamo Card may be helpful. It is valid for use on buses, trams, railways, and the airport bus. While foot travel is an easy way to see the sites, the city is divided into the modern lower city and the upper city, which is rich in art and history.
