Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the opera house. She introduced us to the details using a model and connected it to the bombing that happened in 1943. She guided us through sharing very specific information about the paintings and items we were seeing. There was a rehearsal in the opera house and she made it possible for us to go in twice and see it. A truly memorial tour.
Adriana was a great guide, very knowledgeable and passionate about the theatre and its history, always pointing unusual things
No guide showed up. I was asked to change day/time which I did. Then I got an email confirming the original time so I went to La Scala and no guide was there. I go today for the new time and we’ll see if we have a Guide. Rather disorganized.
Dear guest, thanks for sharing your experience. The tour took place correcly at 11.30am. We haven't received any calls from your number asking for assistance, therefore we would have loved to help you. Kind regards, Italy Hidden Experiences Team
Stefania was wonderful. Her knowledge was so interesting and extensive as she is a frequent patron of La Scala. Highly recommend!
Very informative and lovely tour. Able to see the workings of the theatre and the history of how it came to be then and now. Had chairs in each exhibit to sit so you didn’t have to stand the entire time.
Excellent guide. Did not rush us through the tour. Gave us plenty of time to spend in the Opera box seats while she discussed the history of the Opera House. The museum was very educational because of the knowledge of the guide. Learned a lot about the Opera Masters as my knowledge was lean.
Our guide was knowledgeable and explained many things you would not know just walking through on your own. She also shared some of her personal experiences at La Scala.
