Excellent visit to the museum and theatre. Very informative, relaxed pace and freedom to return to any area for longer time after the tour. Make sure you find the entry point at the side and do not wait at the front doors on the street.
Marta was a fantastic guide. She was kind and enthusiastic. Highly recommend this tour. La Scala is incredible!
This was a great experience with a very good guide. The meet up was well organised and the tour was fascinating. Of course the view of the La Scala theatre were mind blowing, but the history and museum artefacts were equally interesting.
The guide was very informative and helpful. The experience was very enjoyable and we highly recommend it to everyone visiting Milan. Plan a time when performances are hairline.
Absolutely loved our La Scala Museum tour! It was fascinating to discover the history, stories, and incredible treasures behind such an iconic opera house. Our guide made the experience engaging and memorable. A must-do when visiting Milan!
private tour, not worth the money. I took a similar small group tour 4 years ago booked directly through La Scala which was much better
Dear Guest, Thanks for sharing your experience. We're sorry that you didn't enjoy the tour. The guide told me that you decided to interrupt earlier the tour and that you wanted to see the stalls, but they are not included in the tour. Kind regards, IHE Team
Our tour guide was wonderful, providing details about the history of LaScala combined with history of Milan. She made sure we were not only able to see the inside of the LaScala Theatre but also an actual rehearsal. It was an unexpected amazing treat.
Laura has extensive knowledge of the La Scala Opera House and museum. We were very impressed with her. She explained everything very clearly and throughly.
We were so glad to get such an in depth tour of this historic building. We were sad to realize that we were coming to visit Milan at a time when there were no productions going on at La Scala, but getting to see the beauty and hear of the history of the opera house was really amazing. Silva knew so much about the history not only of La Scala but also about so many of the great performers, composers, and conductors that have graced the hallowed halls. We really enjoyed this tour and highly recommend it.
Our guide was so informative. I feel I gained a great deal of knowledge. She was able to adapt to our needs. As an older woman, the heat was too much at times.
