Fascinating and fun family tour

Published on Dec, 2024

Barbara was an incredible guide. So knowledgeable and passionate about the history and culture of Milan and Italy. Thank you for a memorable experience.

Informative tour

Published on Nov, 2024

Sarah did an excellent job giving us the best experience on this walking tour. Her account of the interesting places gave us enough understanding on why Milan is a must see travel destination for its artistic and cultural heritage. And, having just read the book Beneath the Scarlet Sky also helped me relate better with what I saw in the duomo, Scala, hotel Regina (now Bank of China).

Excellent tour guide

Published on Jul, 2024

Fadia Awwad was an excellent tour guide. She made this tour excellent!!! She was very informative and provided so much historical information as well as topics on places to see, eat, visit and spend time while in Milan. I would highly recommend her for any tour. She was very easy to understand and was very helpful.

Great half day tour

Published on Jul, 2024

This was a great last-minute tour and the perfect length of time to see some of the highlights in and around the Duomo. Maurizio was an excellent and very knowledgeable guide. Recommend if you’re short of time and want to skip the line at the Duomo.

Great for teens

Published on Jul, 2024

Great tour, informative and not too long. My teens enjoyed it very much. For females make sure to cover your shoulders and to wear long bottoms entering the church.
