Very informative

Heather_F, Sep 2025
It is interesting and wonderful how much you get to know about La Scala and the Cathedral in a short time. Our guide Corina was very knowledgable. I have limited mobility so I struggled to do the Castle as well but my friends did

Interesting tour with a very informative guide, Corinna

Anne_I, Sep 2025
The guide, Corinna, was very informative, interesting and kind. I would recommend her for this tour.

Great trip, operations need improvement

Sandra_B, May 2025
It was wonderful but the meeting point caused great confusion as many tours were there at the same time and it was very hard to find your correct group.

Worthwhile for those with limited time

padalinoe, Oct 2024
Great overview of La Scala Theatre and the Duoma for those with limited time. Ciara was well informed, kept a wide range of cultures and ages interested and engaged the entire time. Would recommend.

Superior tour

LESLEY_B, Sep 2024
Our tour guide provided a number of entertaining stories, which made the whole experience most enjoyable.

Well worth it!

Clare_F, Sep 2024
Tour guide was considerate, knowledgeable and engaging. Duomo was amazing!! Walking to each venue was great because you are able to “sight see” while walking the beautiful streets of Milan.

Open your eyes to world of Milanese Opera etc.

Xiangci_S, Sep 2024
Tour guide extremely knowledge, kept a good pace and was very attentive to the group. One of the best guided tour experiences I’ve had the pleasure of doing through Viator.

Nice and interesting.

Jose_F, Sep 2024
The Duomo is awesome; but La Scala is beautiful too. We really enjoyed the tour. The guide was nice and answered all the questions that the group asked.

Good walking tour

Paul_S, Sep 2024
We spent 3-hours wandering around some of the main large sites in Milan and it was great. Our tour guide Nina was informative, personable and kept the pace just right.

Interesting tour

Marianne_J, Sep 2024
Everything was interesting but maybe the Scala Theater was a surprice, very interesting. The guide was very good.

Great tour very informative

Steven_K, Aug 2024
Very informative and what an amazing view of the theater and the duomo, Christina did a great job as well, please ask if you can be with her when you go

Interesting Tour

Edie_D, Jul 2024
Great tour! Guide was very professional and knowledgeable. We really enjoyed learning about La Scala and Duomo. Milan is a gorgeous city!

Interesting, humerous and insightful.

Cathy_S, Jul 2024
Chiara was a fantastic guide. She was funny, informative and attentive to the groups needs. We highly recommend her!

The tour was excellent....

Niloy_M, Jul 2024
The tour was excellent. Our guide Samantha was friendly and accomodating and even changed the schedule a bit so we didnt have to walk a lot as Ihave a knee otoblem. Enjoyed it thoroughly.

A must do!

Vicki_B, Jul 2024
A really good introduction to 3 of the 4 must see attractions of Milan. Our Guide Giida was very concious of the various needs of the member of the group and adapted the tour to ensure everyone had an enjoyable experience

Duomo and Alla scala

Emilio_B, Jul 2024
Chiara is amazing! We enjoyed this tour very much. The only thing is that we wished the tour was a little longer.

Wonderful guide

Harumi_N, Jun 2024
Our guide was terrific. She provided a history lesson with insight and humor. The La Scala museum is fascinating. The Duomo is breathtaking and her showing us special features like the zodiac signs in the flooring and detail on the Duomo door would have been missed on our own. Seeing the Piazza del Duomo was also memorable. One member of our party was late due to finding parking. Our guide reassured us that we would be ok and arranged for him joining when able. We traveled with a a group ranging from 9 years old to 75+ and all enjoyed the tour.

Fantastic walking tour

Diane_J, Jun 2024
I can’t speak highly enough about our tour today. I have been on multiple walking tours, and this was by far, my best experience. Our tour guide was clearly an historian who loves her native city of Milano. She shared historical facts combined with entertaining stories. If you are questioning whether you should do this tour, do it! This was the best way to see these highlights of Milano.

Great intro to Milan

Jon_W, Jun 2024
Good tour if you want to learn about Milan and the three places. Christine did a great job of educating and listening to the group.

Sorry I don’t remember...

Debbie_G, May 2024
Sorry I don’t remember her name but she did a fabulous job! So informative and fun to listen to. We took the tour Monday 5/6/24.

Fantastic overview of Milan.

Kathy_G, May 2024
Tour guide was exceptional. Her passion was evident. So much to see in three hours but a fantastic introduction to Milan. Memorable! Thank you.

Thank you to our host!

Pollyanna_D, Apr 2024
I can't remember our hosts name, but he was absolutely amazing! He really knew what he was talking about, he was funny and entertaining. He gave us some realy interesting in depth history about the 3 sights and he made our holiday!

Excellent expirience cudos to our guide Eddie

Davor_M, Apr 2024
First of all our guide Eddie was fantastic-just right measure of history informations that wont "over bomb"you with a touch of milanese street smart inputs for our better enjoyment in city . Also one more important info: we were late on meeting point and agency was leading us on cell phone how to find our group who had allready started a tour and gave an extra effort in that. Cudos for agency and Eddie the guide!

It was raining for 2...

Nahid_B, Nov 2023

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Dear Nahid, your review is about forecast in Como, this tour was in Milan, so this is the wrong page, please cancel this review. Thanks Davide

An efficient tour of three top sites in Milano (~3 hrs)

Farren_B, Oct 2023
I had only a morning free and this was perfect. The tour guide learnt all of our countries/cities of origin within seconds and it was fun way to communicate with her and others. We had an exclusive experience in the original opera house (the heart of Milano), then a grand tour of the basilica (the soul of Milano), and then a lovely stroll to the castle. Our guide was hilarious and engaging. I highly recommend!

Good tour. Interesting and informative

Zachy_L, Oct 2023
Simon is an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and provides clear and interesting facts and stories. The tour was good, covered a lot and we enjoyed the experience.

Best tour in Italy, tour...

orisafesafe, Oct 2023
Best tour in Italy, tour guide (not sure if her name was Clara?) was marvelous, informative and good interaction with the people on the walking tour. She made it interesting and enjoyable. Thank you!

Chiara rocks!

Lynda_W, Oct 2023
Chiara was THE most memorable part! She is a wonderfully knowledgeable and friendly guide. The Scala theatre and museum were fascinating and the duomo is breathtaking.

Tour overview

Brian_M, Oct 2023
Our tour guide was excellent and was very knowledgeable on each of the three areas visited. Unfortunately there was a problem in getting access to the Duomo which upset several other tour members. It meant the time at the Duomo was very rushed and the tour time was extended. Not the guide’s fault but definitely poor admin somewhere which marred the tour,

Definitely recommend

Kiara_W, Oct 2023
Our guide was so knowledgeable and she shared so many interesting facts about Milan and the cultural sites we were visiting. She was patient and flexible with the group. I learnt a lot and had heaps of time to look at everything. I really enjoyed this tour. It was a bit sad we couldn't see inside La Scala because of a filming, but its well advertised that this is a risk, so that's okay. We were offered tickets to go the next day, but sadly, I was leaving and couldn't do it.
