Itinerary
Milan's most famous mural, Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper, is hidden away on a wall of the refectory adjoining the Basilica of Santa Maria delle Grazie. Depicting Jesus and His disciples at the dramatic moment when He reveals He's aware of the betrayal, it's a masterful psychological study and one of the world's most iconic images.
Santa Maria delle Grazie, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an exceptional testament to the Renaissance architecture in Milan. Designed by Guiniforte Solari in 1463, with later additions by Bramante, this stunning Lombard church encapsulates the magnificence of the Milanese court of Ludovico Sforza and Beatrice d’Este. The vist of the Church can be done just from outside if the Church is closed. The church is closed between 12:50 pm to 3 pm

Guide was excellent and very knowledgable. The last supper was definitely worth seeing and the tour made it a great learning experience.
Very hard to understand our guide. Did not have a flow to his methodology about sharing his knowledge about the history. I have done many tours. I do not feel the guide added anything.
The guide was excellent. Very informative and interesting
Amazing experience with a fantastic guide. Saw many of the major attractions at a very comfortable pace! Getting to skip the line at the Duomo and Last supper was completely worth it. Was intrigued and learning during the entire tour. Highly recommend!
To very carefully read & understand any last minute changes to the meeting point, which I failed to do.
Excellent tour guide, two hrs of interesting information with a twist of italian humor. The last super is a must see.
One of the most beautiful experiences since we have been traveling since 2008, highly recommended and the guide David is a very good guide, he explains everything very well.
The visit is worth it, but getting tickets is difficult. The big providers simply buy up the quotas and sell them at exorbitant prices. Conclusion: seen and checked off
No trip to Milan would be complete without making a trip to see Leonardo da Vinci‘s last supper painting. It is by far one of the most famous artworks in the history of mankind. Learning about the history of da Vinci and some of his other well-known art pieces does not prepare enough for the feeling of walking into the room with the last supper. While we have seen this painting, literally thousands of times in our life in various churches, seeing it up, close in person was a truly inspiring moment. Analyzing all of the symbolism and mystique that goes along with this painting was a true once in a lifetime experience.
Definitely worth seeing the Last Supper even though you can only stay 15 minutes. They allow you to take pictures.
