Sylva, who led this tour, was extremely knowledgeable, entertaining and charming. The Last Supper is one of the wonders in Milan that no tourist should miss. And the rest of the tour was also entertaining and took us to places that we would not have found on our own.

Very practical this city pass for Milan! The incredible Duomo, it would just be good to have the free child ticket with it to avoid going to the ticket office each time to get the free ticket (up to 5 years old)

Very interesting tour, enough time for the last supper and other interesting places. Laura was an exzellent guide. I can honestly recommend it.

So much art and creativity at one place! Highly recommend to visit this place if you are in Milan.

Perfect Maurizio has a lot of knowledge and explains it well
