Very knowledgeable guide ( apologies have forgotten her name) great on the gallery and selected paintings. This gallery is well worth seeing but background info made it even better
District component was brief but it was raining
Highly recommended

Brera is a very quaint, interesting area and we really enjoyed the tour. It highlighted where we wanted to explore later and had many restaurant options. The museum was manageable and spacious so it was easy to admire the art. We were fortunate that the Armani exhibit was extended and the clothes were amazing.

This is a great tour if you’re into European/Renaissance and later art. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable on all the art in the museum. I wish I could remember his name because I would highly recommend him.

The number of paintings and their place in art history is overwhelming without guide like we had. Great!

Gaia was fabulous! We had a wonderful time walking around this center of Milan and learning all about the history, architecture and culture of the city. She also recommended many other fun things to do and places to visit as well as great restaurants. Thanks again, Gaia!

Lara was an absolutely fabulous tour guide with deep knowledge of the museum and the Brera district. Excellent experience.

Giorgio is really a rare find of a guide with passion for and encyclopedic knowledge of the art. We focused mostly on the Italian Renaissance masters and our guide really brought the paintings to life with a great narrative, attention to detail and historical context. Highly recommend.

Richard_S, Mar 2025
Very interesting description of many artworks For the casual observer perfect. Maybe it would have been nice to have a longer guide of the area
Ramon_P, Dec 2024
It was great! Our tour guide (sorry don’t remember her name) had so much knowledge and was able to keep it very interesting!

My guide Tiziana was very knowledge and passionate about arts. She studied there. Highly recommended. I booked this as a group, but due to lack of people, for additional $100 euro, they made it private. It’s solid. Worth the experience.

I wish I knew the academy was closed on Sundays before I bought the tickets. However the art museum was amazing
Barbara_C, Oct 2024
We appreciated our tour guide so much and to learn so many interesting facts about the artwork at this fantastic museum! We even learned more about the Brera neighborhood which was also very appreciated. This was so worthwhile and highly recommend it!

Cara was extremely knowledgeable about the artwork, and was very personable . We learned a lot in the 2hrs we spent with her.
Katie_G, Oct 2024
Must do. One of the most fantastic features and venues of Milan. Our guide was amazing and she was so insightful. Easy to find at the entrance.
A guide in a small group setting is a must way to do this museum. No big groups making noise and congestion.
Thomas_S, Sept 2024
Our guide Mary was outstanding, describing everything in detail. It was a great tour and memorable experience. I highly recommend.
Hansel_L, Aug 2024
Our guide was spectacular at explaining the subtle messages of each piece. Also gave us an overview of how Italian art changed through centuries. The Pinacoteca Di Brera houses some very beautiful works, it is definitely recommended.
Amir_P, Aug 2024
I had high expectations from this visit to Brera district and museum because of the works by Rafael, Caravaggio, Veronese, Rubens, Bramante, Hayez, Mantegna and others. But the excellent guidance and explanations of the capable guide made the visit a super-experience for me as he put light on the background and trends. He even recommended on other places to visit. After the guided tour I stayed for two hours to see again and strengthen the impressions. I will never forget this visit and will probably come back to this place.
Jill_N, Jul 2024
Excellent guide . Learnt so much from her.Especially liked the information and painting ‘ the kiss’ because it’s not what it seems
Keenan_M, Jul 2024
Great experience. The tour starts with a walk through the Brera district which is very pretty and interesting. The guide will explain interesting details about the history of the area. Then the tour goes to the museum and looks at the art. This is a great way to see the art because there are many pieces but the tour focuses on some of the more interesting ones. The guide will explain the history of the pieces and point of details and context that you may otherwise miss. I recommend doing this tour!
Christi_C, Jun 2024
Our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about art and gave lots of little details on each masterpiece
Gill_M, Jun 2024
The explanations of the paintings and seeing the Caravaggio and the Kiss
And just having the time to stop and admire
Joseph_K, Jun 2024
Nina was terrific. Extremely knowledgeable. Art gallery is very impressive. I recommend this tour. The Brera district has tons of restaurants and on Sunday there is a huge flea market in the streets.
Christine_B, May 2024
Great tour. But our tour guide should have told us to take a stool with us at the beginning and to have a seat whenever we wanted.
Katrin_T, May 2024
Lovely, passionate and knowledgeable guide. We had a great time. Definitely recommend. The walk in the neighborhood added a nice little twist to the museum experience
SUKWON_L, May 2024
