Skip-the-line tickets for Leonardo’s Last Supper plus a guided walk past Sforza Castle, Galleria, La Scala, and Duomo in 3 hours.
“45 mins of discussion and a short controlled visit to see the supper. Then an easy flat walk through the city. Valentina was amazing guide.”
Milan pasta and tiramisù class in a historic home near Duomo, with limoncello, wine, and take-home recipes. 3 hours.
“This was one of the highlights of our entire trip!Caterina was warm, welcoming, funny and knowledgeable, making us feel right at home while sharing their passion for authentic Italian cuisine and her grandmas recipes. The class was fun, hands-on, and filled with laughter – we learnt so much and got to enjoy the delicious dishes we prepared together. Every detail was thoughtfully planned. It was well worth the money and genuinely the perfect way to end our holiday.”
Book an English guided hour to Milan’s Santa Maria delle Grazie and Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper fresco, with tickets and expert commentary.
“The ticketed time s NOT the time of the tour. We had to cut our tour short in order to make a train.”
Private 2-hour Milan walk blending art, modern architecture, and classic churches, with a guide who tailors the route and gives local tips.
“Our guide Ismail was a nice guy but the tour felt more like a stroll in the city with a friend than 'a historic walking tour'. We were interested in a historical and architectural tour of the city but the guide had little knowledge about the buildings and history. On architecture, buildings were "sophisticated" while most areas on the walk consisted of bars and restaurants, "busy at night" or shops. Overall the experience was disappointing.”
A small-group 2-hour Como walking tour with an English guide, free entry stops, and practical local tips, perfect for first-time orientation.
“This was the perfect way to start our visit to Como. The walking tour gave us the history of the city, the cathedral and the walls around the city. Violetta was a superb tour guide, giving us tips about what to do around the city and surrounding area. Highly recommended! We actually signed up with her for a tour the next day too!”
A 3-hour Brescia walk with castle views, Roman ruins, painted ceilings, and a local bar drink included, led in English.
“Our guide Davide is an excellent story teller. He knows the city very good, finds interesting places to show and interesting facts to say. And the final drink was perfect. I definitely recommend him as a tour guide”

“Very good experience! Great food, knowledge of area and drinks , guide was great !”
Milan Natural History Museum ticket plus smartphone audio guide with 40+ stops in English, Italian, French, and German from April 15.
“No one was there to wait for us or gave us instructions even though we were told that we simply had to wait for the assistant with a yellow flag because she was late.. after half an hour we called again to ask for instructions and we were told to link to a dangerous website for the audio guide.. we obviously didn’t do it and so we scanned again a new link that lead us to the Natural History Museum in London!!! Absolutely ridiculous”
Fashion-focused small-group Milan walking tour in Brera with snacks, gelato, local makers, and possible discounts. 3 hours, up to 6.
“Our Milano born tour guide, Keit who knows the city well … its people, good products, delicious food and culture. She is energetic and a lot of fun to spend time with. If you like to visit the local neighborhood…if you like to buy some good quality products with reasonable price and get all kinds of tips for food and shopping…you will get them from this tour. Both of my husband and I had a great time and learned a lot. Thank you!”
