What you’ll do

In Milan, the city that needs no introduction, you’ll get, well... a pretty great introduction! Think of it as a crash course in all things Milanese from your knowledgeable host, from learning how to navigate the city’s network of buses and trams to discovering the best local haunts for sunset aperitivo and a perfectly prepared risotto. You’ll weave through the backstreets of the city’s central districts, making mental notes of where to stop off again tomorrow, and even squeeze in some sightseeing – landmarks like Sforza Castle and Duomo di Milano cathedral are along the way! When you’re feeling snacky, grab an opportunity to pop into a cafe and ask your host any questions you might have over an extra-strong espresso.

Bibi is a knowledgeable tour guide. We walked through the city and discovered gems we would not have seen on our own.

Reza is a perfect guide which we all need to roam around not just in Milan but in entire Italy. Apart from historical info and place info, he suggested us famous Pizza, Pasta places in Milan which are a must try. Keep up the good work Reza!

Excellent experience with Titziana walking all throughout the Milan Cathedral (rooftop, crypt, etc), the Sforzesco Castle and some unique areas of the city. She was incredibly informative and a delight to walk with.
