Great tour. Jada was an excellent guide, so much knowledge and interesting facts and happy to take lots of questions. Lots of walking but also loved the tram ride back to the Duomo. Thank you Jada.
Traveled on hot day. Less crowds. Skipping line for Duomo was worth it for heat. Last supper is amazing. Guide gave good information and kept it light and funny despite the heat. Have good direction sense, but this part of the city you get lost easily. Spun three times for good luck in Shopping center. Was worth it.
Luca did a perfect tour covering all aspects of central Milan including the interior of the Last Supper and Duomo. I was worried about how long the tour was but the day itself flew in. You also get an hours break for lunch and stops throughout for water/toilet/shops.
Our tour guide was wonderful. He was knowledgeable, friendly and delivered exactly the tour we were expecting.
This tour was difficult because it was 6 hours long and unseasonably HOT. About 35 C or 95 F. Guide prioritized rest stops and hydration. Duomo Cathedral, The Last Supper, and our guide were fantastic!!! Well worth dealing with the heat.
A 36 degrees + day isn’t the best for a 6 hour Milan walk but SO glad we took this tour. It was wonderful, thanks mainly to Sylvia our guide. She was absolutely exemplary. 👏👏👏. Kind, patient, clear, knowledgeable and so thoughtful, trying to always keep us in the shade where possible. We learned far more about Milan and its attractions than we ever would have on our own. The Duomo and Last Supper were clear highlights and the San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore was a surprise delight. A 5 ⭐️ tour.

The tour guide is very knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the city. There is a lot of walking.
The tour was wonderful and very informative. Gianluca was an excellent tour guide providing a great deal of historical and art background. We learned much of the interesting history of Milan and many behind the scenes facts about the city & sites. We highly recommend the tour. It was well worth the price.
