Tour description

 Explore the magnificent Milan, breathing in its elegance and creativity. With this unique vibrant tour you will not only see all the famous sites, but also many hidden gems.
Your English mother-tongue local guide is funny, passionate and knowledgeable. She loves Milan, her home city, and you'll love it too as you travel on this voyage of discovery.
Milan's 2000-year history will take shape through fascinating legends, myths and art. You'll see the influence of the Roman, Spanish, Austrian, and French conquerors: from Napoleon's “Arch of Triumph” to "The Devil wears Prada”.
You'll get lots of extra suggestions for your holiday stay in Milan, to make this trip the best one ever.

Serena was really friendly, very professional and super kind and helpful. We enjoyed the tour and thought it provided a very nice snapshot of Milan. We had to leave early to attend to an emergency but if we're back in Milan, we will certainly come back to do the tour again and finish it this time!

A fabulous start to get to know the city of Milan. Tour was filled with fascinating stories and just the right amount of history and dates that don’t overwhelm you. Serena also has an exquisite voice and it was a treat to hear her sing.
