“This stadium tour was my present to my husband for his birthday. I didn’t want to go to stadium, but because City of Milan was a shockingly bad experience then I decided to go with him despite I don’t like football. So we went all together with our children age 5-8 and we all enjoyed the tour. The guide was so fast, everyone could do photos, view everything, and she was very kind, chatty and helpful. So this stadium tour is enjoyable for even someone who is generally not interested in football and personally this experience was the only one what we enjoyed when we visited Milan.Read more”

“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!!!
