Best of Milan Experience Including Da Vinci's The Last Supper and Milan Duomo

Anonymous, Aug 2026

Best way to see Milan in a short time

Samantha was a great guide for this tour! We didn’t have too much time in Milan and this was a great way to see all of the highlights in a short time. Seeing the Last Supper painting was unreal. We also realized that it’s basically impossible to see the painting without being on a tour since the tour groups snatch up all of the tickets. A lot of walking but worth your time and money

Lake Como: Bellagio and Varenna Day Trip From Milan

An unforgettable birthday in Lake Como ! ❤️❤️

This day trip to Bellagio and Lugano was truly one of the highlights of my trip to Italy—and even more special because it happened to be my birthday. I enjoyed every moment, from the breathtaking views of Lake Como to the charming streets and beautiful villages. But what made the day truly unforgettable was something completely unexpected. The day before, I had met a wonderful Spanish family during my tour of Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper in Milan. By an amazing coincidence, we met again in Bellagio the following day! They even sang Happy Birthday to me. It was such a spontaneous and emotional moment that I will always remember. ❤️ Everything came together to make this a very special birthday—beautiful places, wonderful people, and memories that I will carry with me for a long time. I absolutely loved this experience and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Milan and Lake Como. It was a perfect birthday! 🇮🇹❤️

St Moritz & Swiss Alps Day Trip with Bernina Red Train from Milan

Anonymous, Aug 2026

Excellent Drive , Plenty of Info and Great train ride

Excellent drive to St. Moritz! Salvator gave us a plenty of interesting information through the drivd and a short walking tour in St Moritz, we then had around 30 minutes to explore on our own ( which was a bit short for me personally) The reserved coach on the red bus was also fun, with plenty of opportunities to move around and take photos and videos. We got off at Tirano, so keep in mind that most of the journey is spent sitting. A special mention to our driver, Antonio—an excellent driver who handled the hairpin curves to St. Moritz superbly. The return journey was smooth and fast. Overall, a wonderful experience!

Tour to Como, Bellagio & Lugano from Milan with Lake Como Cruise

Our tour to Lake Como,...

Our tour to Lake Como, Bellagio, and Lugano was pure magic. Lake Como’s beauty left us speechless. It was a gorgeous sunny day and the shimmering blue water, steep green hillsides, and elegant villas created postcard views at every turn. Bellagio was equally charming with its steep cobbled lanes and lakeside elegance, though the food was quite pricey for what we got. So just a little warning (although our guide did mention this to us). Lugano offered a relaxed Swiss contrast, with its tidy promenade and mountain backdrop. The whole day felt effortless and scenic, a perfect mix of Italian romance and Alpine calm. Highly recommend if you love lakes, views, and a bit of wandering.

Great, Weatherproof Tour of the Duomo

I had a great time visiting the Duomo as part of this tour; skipping the lines (which were growing as the tour proceeded) was a great bonus. Carmine did a great job guiding us through both the interior of the cathedral, as well as on the rooftop. He provided great details and made sure to point out the important historical aspects of the cathedral. Even though it was a rainy and windy day, the tour was very enjoyable and I would recommend it regardless of weather!

VENICE in just the right way

If you want a satisfying taste of a splendid day in Venice, this trip with satiate that craving. It’s a packed day but it serves its purpose. The bus ride was comfortable with breaks for breakfast and bathroom. The guide led you so you’re not aimlessly walking around, still giving you free time. And the gondola ride was the highlight!! We ate at a random place and had the best seafood risotto ever! I had the best time!

Historic Milan Tour with Skip-the-Line Last Supper Ticket

Perfect 👌

Our Milan tour was fantastic, especially the skip‑the‑line visit to the Last Supper. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and really brought the history to life. They even prepared us on the etiquette before entering, which made the experience feel even more special. Seeing the Last Supper up close was exquisite, truly one of those unforgettable, once‑in‑a‑lifetime moments.

Swiss Alps Bernina Red Train and St.Moritz Tour from Milan

Anonymous, Jun 2026

It’s a WOW. Brilliant scenery.

Brilliant scenery. On the bus from Milan sit on the left side for a better view of Lake Como. On the red train, sit on the right side of the carriage for the best views, but let folks on the right side of the carriage to photograph the snow and mountains that you can see. Be generous. Commentary for us was difficult. Two reasons. Firstly the commentary was in Italian, which I don’t understand , and when it was repeated in English, it seemed like the specific photo opportunity had passed. Actually, very annoying. Secondly, the guide giving the commentary has/had a throat issue (unfortunately) which meant we couldn’t really understand or comprehend what he was saying. At times he used a portable speaker to expouse what he was saying - even in Italian, and even to one person only. This was unsatisfactory.
