Top Milan Walking Tours - page 5

The tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the Duomo, but also the city of Milan. Really helpful to have a tour and not just try to do it on our own. There was also a decent line for the elevator to the roof and this allowed us to skip the line. Highly recommend this tour.

I booked last minute to maximize experiencing the most of downtown Milano in a couple of hours. The walking tour with Bibi totally exceeded my expectations. Bibi’s wealth of knowledge as a historian and a local gave me a memorable experience of this beautiful city, pointing out major highlights and some hidden treasures only a local would know. Her English is excellent. She was adaptable to point out areas that would interest me and is a pleasure to tour with. Thank You Bibi.

Our tour guide was very passionate about the La Scala theatre and gave us excellent insight into the history of the theatre. They were setting up for a Wagner opera and it was fascinating to see the backstage magic being done. The tour is highly recommended.

This was the most expensive tour in our entire 2+ week trip in Europe. We were a group of 6, and we wanted a more personal experience to view this masterpiece, so we took a chance to sign up for this “semi-private” group tour. I originally thought we had the entire room to ourselves, but we were actually a part of 40+ people admitted into the room for the 15 min viewing time. Fortunately, the room was large enough, and our group of 6 did get a few minutes to view the painting on our own. Fiamma was our guide, although the tour was less than an hour, Fiamma was able to pack a lot of relevant and important information from the start — outside of the building (monastery & church) all the way to the painting itself. She communicated clearly, and was very effective in setting up and helping us get the most out of the short time we had. I appreciate her knowledge and through her guidance, I was able to make an emotional connection with the masterpiece — which was my biggest take away from this short tour. I wish I could linger longer though. But because of Fiamma, the painting was etched in my mind, to be revisited whenever I want — thank you! I don’t think that would happen without her guiding us to focus and see the many details and meanings behind the gestures, facial expressions, body positions and interactions among the characters. What a masterpiece it was!

Do yourself a favor & buy this tour vs. going it alone. Laura, our tour guide was stellar. She pointed out details and the subtlest nuances of Da Vinci’s painting my hubby & I agreed - we would have never known - nor read about or learned before. The depth of knowledge she commands and passion for all Italian history was unbelievable - only acquired I think from years of experience, education & drive to learn more. We had a ball - thanks!

What a lovely tour! Jose was an excellent guide. So knowledgeable, organized, and welcoming. Clear meeting instructions and an amazing tour packed full of information. We would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone wanting more out of their visit to beautiful Italy.

Our day was truly memorable thanks to our knowledgeable and funny guide, Armando. He tailored the tour to our preferences and was happy to spend extra time at places we enjoyed. The food was delicious, and we also learned a lot about the city and its history. Highly recommend, especially with Armando as your guide

Sylvia was a very good guide. The only STRONG recommendation I have is that they tour company needs to either provide water to make it easily available to purchase. We had one young man experience heat stroke and had to drop out of the tour because of the hot day, full sun and NO WATER for hours.
