This was a great tour. We were able to experience the Duomo in a very personal way. The guide was very knowledgeable and knew so much about the statues on the roof. I would highly recommend it.

Terrazze del Duomo
Meet your licensed tour guide in Piazza del Duomo and make your way to the elevator entrance, where you will take the lift to enjoy the unforgettable experience of walking on the Rooftop of the magnificent Duomo Cathedral: the overall size of this Gothic architecture is impressive and its flying buttresses and the white marble make it a one-of-a-kind. Climb nearly 50 steps to reach the highest level on the roof and be ready to admire stunning views of the Milanese skyline, including the brand-new upcoming skyscrapers… On the roof of Italy’s largest cathedral, and one of the biggest in the world, you can enjoy exciting views of Milan and on a clear day you may even see as far as the Italian Alps, the mountains separating Italy from Switzerland. Over 3.400 statues and 135 spires await to be unveiled and it is definitely best seen from above! End your visit admiring the golden statue of the Virgin Mary, shining bright on top of the Major spire!

Zero Customer Service
I had booked the experience weeks in advance on a tight schedule. Less than 24 hours before the tour, they gave no reason, but said they would have to change the time and/or date of my tour. After much inconvenience on my part, i managed to book another time, but Wanderinitaly did not bother calling me or attempt to offer any gestures of good will despite me having to forgo anothervwalking tour to fit in with them. just their way or the highway. Chiara guide on trip was great, but Wanderinitaly caused me a lot of stress BUYER BEWARE!!!

Worth seeing but expensive
Worth seeing without a tour but expensive. It is best to walk right in the morning to escape the measures. Dom Museum has also been with us , also worth seeing. The archaeological vault was not exciting. The interior of the cathedral and the roof terrace are most impressive.

Spires, rooftop Milan Magic
Visiting the Duomo rooftop was one of my favorite Milan experiences. The spires up close are absolutely breathtaking, the panoramic views stretch across the entire city, and the history behind every detail feels magical. Really fave you the “behind scenes” feel. Our local guide was amazing and brought the stories of the cathedral to life. A must-do when visiting Milan!
