Great Tour!!!!

Todd_P, Sep 2025

Really a great tour where we saw a different Milan. Really some beautiful and peaceful places away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist places. Marco was an AWESOME guide and really gave us a great experience!!

Beautiful Milan

Leslie_R, Sep 2025

This tour highlights beautiful parts of the city that you might not otherwise see. Simon is an excellent tour guide. Really enjoyable.

Milan is so much more than the tourist spots.

Marco was fabulous! He took us to the hidden gems of Milan and shared his love of the history of beautiful Milan. If history is your thing, Marco is your guy!

Marco made the tour

Marco was a perfect guide. We had a great time he answered all of our questions and showed us all the great architecture of the city that you might not normally realise is there.

Interesting tour to different spaces.

Marco was a lovely guide although quite softly spoken. It was a "private" tour just the 3 of us so he was very attentive, informative and amenable. We saw places we might have missed and his knowledgable was interesting. He gave us lots of hints and tips and answered loads of questions from us even if they didn't relate to tour! We didn't see the flamingos in the photo that promoted the tour but I asked and he directed us, so we saw them!
