Hi I’m Silvia, a local host who divides her time between Milan and the enchanting shores of Lake Como. What I love most is how these two worlds complement each other: Milan with its international spirit, discreet elegance, and seamless blend of history and modern life, and Como with its natural beauty, rich heritage, and relaxed dolce vita lifestyle. In Como, I know the villas, restaurants and villages inside out - from iconic Bellagio to hidden, peaceful corners that reveal the lake’s authentic soul. In Milan, I enjoy uncovering its refined side: from the great landmarks like Piazza Duomo and Santa Maria delle Grazie to the charm of Brera, the Navigli, and cozy bookstores and cafés. With me, you’ll experience both cities not just as a visitor, but through the eyes of someone who truly loves and understands them.

Having a personal guide made it so much easier to visit the sites we wanted to see in Milan. Sylvia was very knowledgeable and personable. A delight to spend our 3+ hours with her.

My guide Silvia was outstanding and a pleasure to spend the afternoon with! She took extra time to show me the sites I wanted to see and also added some interesting spots that she knows as a local. Silvia also provided recommendations for me to discover during my additional days in Milan. The tour and the guide were fantastic! My only issue with the experience is with the City Unscripted administrative process leading up to the tour. I was contacted by multiple 'City Unscripted Experience Managers' by email and also, unfortunately, by a 3a phone call that woke me up...
