People Say About This Tour

This was a great tour! Paula did an excellent job showing us around Milan and sharing the history of her city. She even had great restaurant recommendations for us. Would highly recommend.

Tour was private (wasn’t clearly noted) and the guide was very warm and informative. While seeing the Last Supper is hard to do given the limited tickets, I am not sure this tour is worth the money for 3 hours and 3 sites.

Our Milan Private Day Tour was an absolute highlight of our trip! Our guide, Fiamma, was knowledgeable, friendly, and full of fascinating insights about the city. During our visit to the terraces of the Duomo di Milano, she pointed out details we never would have noticed on our own. We visited many of Milan’s iconic landmarks, concluding with The Last Supper, which was truly unforgettable. Fiamma kept a close eye on the schedule to ensure we didn’t miss our timed entry, yet we never felt rushed. She adjusted the itinerary as we went along to match our pace and interests. This private tour was the perfect way to see the best of Milan in a short amount of time. Highly recommended!

Our guide, Ema, was very good. But this private tour is not worth 800 euros for 2 people. We had another tour booked that canceled at the last minute and this was our only choice. Would recommend our guide but not the price for the tour.

Laura was a wonderful guide. We especially enjoyed the Last Supper. Cost for the tour was expensive but probably worth it since we were unable to obtain tix for the Last Supper.

Although out tour guide Veronica was excellent, very accommodating, knowledgeable and flexible; the cost of this private 3 hour walking tour was overpriced. No transportation, refreshments for an over 800 euro fee.

Emanuela Did an excellent job. She was very knowledgeable and shared a lot about the city. She is a local and knows a lot about the city and its history even beyond the basics of the tour but she also spoke excellent English. We only had 1 day to spend in Milan and feel like this was a great way to spend it.

Loved this tour. It was a quick way to get to see a lot of things we wanted to see especially The Last Supper. Christian was a great guide with a lot of good background on the different things we were seeing. Loved having him to show us around and give us tips. He even gave us a great recommendation for lunch restaurant, which turned out wonderfully.

We could not have asked for a better guide, Christian. He was so personable and knowledgeable. His experience and personality made our trip to Milan - spending 3 hours with him was the highlight. Excellent day and tour. And the weather cooperated with no rain. Very thankful for that.
