Milan unforgettable private tours with locals

Essential city info, articles & travel tips from our local hosts

No metropolis mixes ancient and modern quite as attractively as Milan – this is, after all, the heartland of world-renowned Italian design. The city’s stylish soul can be seen everywhere: in its Art Deco architecture, the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, iconic shopping streets lined with designer boutiques, and locals that look like they’ve stepped from the pages of a high-fashion magazine. But it’s not all sleek angles and futuristic skylines – the historic center is its own visual feast of medieval palaces, ancient ruins, and centuries-old monuments like the iconic Milan Cathedral, with cobbled sidewalk cafés and fortune-tellers’ booths not far away. One day in Milan is a fast-paced, caffeine-fueled whirlwind of art, food, and fashion, where the list of things to do is as varied as it is long. After musing over da Vinci’s The Last Supper and shopping stunning clothes, indulge in the Milan-born tradition of sunset aperitivo along centuries-old waterways while planning a day trip to lavish Lake Como.
