Customer reviews of tours in Milan

The overall package was a good experience. Make sure to pack a snack if you aren't able to get breakfast before leaving; there is several hours before you stop for a meal break. A lot of time on the bus but the train ride back from St Moritz is beautiful.

The trip was Amazing!! The guide sara was professional, knowledgeable and a nice person. The trip started in Lake Como then we took a boat to verena and then by bus to st Mortiz in Swizerland where we took the red train where we saw a really beautiful views that felt unreal.

The weather forecast was rain and we could have been warned to bring raincoats or water repellent shoes. Most of us had clothes and shoes that got wet. I managed to buy a small umbrella from a hawker, but still got wet as it was windy. I was looking forward to a hot drink but cafe was closed. You can imagine reaching very cold St Moritz with damp trousers and wet shoes. We could have been warned on email before the trip to be prepared in case of rain as it was a long walk from the bus to the boat. Tourist guide did not manage our expectations. Also the tourist guide’s English was incomprehensible and vocabulary limited. She would say something in English and switch immediately to Spanish where she was more comfortable in. You could tell she was struggling. Not enough knowledge so we missed out a lot of important facts and info. The radio to listen to her was not working.

We are happy with this day trip because it includes a cool boat ride, fantastic scenic train, pick up and drop in a bus, travel all day in a comfortable bus. One can easily spend full day in this trip and it's worth the price too. The guide also was very pleasant and happily showed us around.

Excellent. Even though it was raining in Como the view was spectacular. Driving through the Morjola pass was extremely scary but one of the most beautiful and scenic experience. The stop in St Moritz was a good break. I had one of the most delicious tasting hot chocolate ever and I regret not buying two of the pastries. The Bernina Express train through the Swiss Alps was everything and thanks to Andre who provided the background and history throughout the entire trip. Highly recommended.

Excellent day trip. We didn’t sit in the official Bernina Express panoramic train, as advertised. We rode in the regular passenger train, but in a way, this turned out to be better because we were able to pull down the windows and get a real view, smell the air, and take incredible photos without the glare - something we wouldn’t have been able to do on the panoramic train. The views were spectacular and our guide was excellent - incredibly knowledgeable and humorous. The bus driver was also very skillful and cautious as he drove us down a precarious and very narrow winding road down the mountain from St. Moritz. Bring a light jacket and light sweater, as it gets chilly up in the mountains. Highly recommend!

Overall we really enjoyed this tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot. The boat ride on Lake Como was great; fun to see all the houses and learn about the lake. St. Moritz was cool, the only downside is we were there around 1pm and most of the shops were closed for their lunch time break. The train ride was cool, it’s not the official train but you can open the windows so you can take better pictures. The tour guide highlighted any significant thing we went past. Would recommend this tour if your want to see some sights outside of Milan.

Great experience. Few tips. -Opt for the left hand side of the boat out the back for best views and photo opportunities. -on the red train, you can see if the carriages behind have less passengers-again easier to take pictures etc. Great tour, no up selling etc

The trip was amazing & our guide was brilliant - really informative. The only minus I would say is that the bus did not have a toilet on, I think that when you are spending roughly 6 hours on a bus - it really should have a toilet, other than that - Brilliant trip .

What an experience! This trip is our something special to remember from our visit to N. Italy! The lake cruise was so beautiful, the trip from Como to St. Moritz by bus was so thrilling, the St. Moritz views are breathtaking, and of course the Bernina train experience just WOW. 100% recommended. Special thanks to Giada, our guide, who is such a sweet person, for giving us every little detail to make this experience even more unique! And hats off to Santo, our driver, who made 6+ hours on the bus feel like nothing.

it was an amazing tour I really enjoyed it and I think that this is the best thing to do in a whole day. It was very interesting and very beautiful I saw a lot of amazing views we changed three modes of transport But at the same time we were never tired. It was an exciting journey

A very well organised trip. There's a lot of sitting involved (coach, boat, train) but you get beautiful and scenic views as promised. St Moritz was a bit of a disappointment, would rather explore Como area for a bit longer but understand it would have been difficult to manage timewise. All in all, worth both your time and price - would definitely do it again.

Giulia was a wonderful guide. She was detailed and thorough in all of her explanations and descriptions of the Duomo; Features, characteristics, and history of the Duomo! What a magnificent church! We are so happy we got a chance to see it with such a wonderful guide.

The Duomo is beyond explanation; needs to be seen in person. Fast-tracking to the rooftop is the way to go. The architecture of the rooftop is breathtaking. Our guide (sorry, I don't remember her name) was very nice and so informative. However, when the group moved from place to place, it was sometimes difficult to see what direction she went (a lot of people) -- I would suggest the guides carry something bright and hold it up to help the group follow.

The tour was good - not the best but not bad either. There were quite a few people and little ability to ask questions. Though the guide’s English was very good, I did have trouble understanding her meaning from time to time. The line to get the elevator to the roof was so long that we skipped going altogether.

Very nice and a lot of information given by the guide. We are glad we took it so we can understand all the different things that we were seen. Also going to the terrace was great to see the city from above as well as all the intricate construction and gargoyles that surround the building. With the guide we got a fast pass to the elevators to get to the top. Going down was fun but narrow passage. You could take elevator down but you had to wait in line. It is always easy to go down than up the stairs. It is worth the price plus you get a very nice explanation of the cathedral as well as the sculptures in the area. Saint Bartholomew sculpture is very impressive with details as well as the story given by the guide. We took pictures of everything as the cathedral is one of the biggest and it shows. Close to shopping, if you are into high end merchandise, and the food was exquisite no matter where you go

The tour is amazing! The guide was very gentle and tried to keep the group together to explain everything. However, when she distanced herself from the last people, the sound was broken. The ticket also gives you a tour to 2 other attractions, but you have to keep the ticket to do it. Even though the original ticket was a QR Code in the app, the entrance to the tour is on paper (easy to lose it). They should consider to use the app, so this wouldn´t be a problem.

This was an excellent tour for two of us ably led by Catio. We enjoyed learning so much about the history of the building and of course the religious aspects. The archaeological visit under the building presented a good appreciation of what had been before. We concluded the tour with a trip to the roof via escalator and some stairs. Wonderful!

This tour is worth every penny spent on it. 90 minutes packed with information and unforgettable experience. Also, time saver - we did not have to wait a single minute to enter the duomo, or the archeological site, or going up to the terrace. Our tour guide was fantastic, narrative filled with both information and attitude. That is undoubtedly the best way to visit the duomo.

This was a great tour! The tour guide (I forgot her name, but she was so nice) was easy to find and I loved that we were able to beat the lines. I wish I remembered our guide's name because she was just full of knowledge about the most obscure things in the duomo - I loved it! We were able to go underground and obviously to the terraces. Fair warning, even though we take a lift to the terraces, it only takes you partly there. There are still some stairs, so be aware of that! Gorgeous views, knowledgable tour guide, and interesting facts. What more could you ask for!?

The tour was fabulous and our guide was terrific. The meeting point was not clear. We were early and walked around to several locations that we thought "might" be the location and we were not correct. no one answered the phone at the number we were provided. Luckily the tour provider called us 10 minutes after the scheduled tour time wondering where we were, so we did connect. the tour meets on the South side of the building toward the center and does not meet at the main entrance of the Duomo.

I'm glad I booked the Fast-Track Milan Cathedral and Terraces Guided Tour. Our meeting point was very easy to find, security check was smooth, and literally went inside with no waiting time. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and super sweet. At the end of the tour, we were left on our own to explore the rooftop and it was beautiful! On our way up there, we had access to the elevator and had a short climb. On our way back down, we took the stairs but it was not as bad as I thought.

What a wonderful experience! Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke very clearly. She was easy to find she took her time and was funny too. Duomo was breath taking. The detail was stunning. We were overall very impressed! I only use for traveling and highly suggest you do the same.

Excellent experience and must do in Milan. The history of Duomo and the way our guide explained was very interesting. Only thing is the meeting point location should change since it is now near the tickets booth. Infoarea is different and I thought I almost missed it though I came half an hour early.

A great day out from Milan to Lake Como and Bellagio. Our guide, Stefan was informative and fun and really engaged with the whole group. We had enough time to enjoy the day and the highlight was being able to have lunch in Bellagio enjoying the amazing views with time to explore the town after. Great value for the money. Highlight of a trip to Milan was this trip,

The tour began in Milan, and included a walking tour of Como and guided boat ride on Lake Como and a stop at beautiful Bellagio., with free time in Como and Bellagio. It was a great trip, lasted about 10 1/2 hours. Our native Guide Simona was excellent. The trip was worth the price

This tour is absolutely worth it! Stefano was the best guide. He is so knowledgeable about the local history and can tell you everything you need to know to have an awesome experience and learn about the history of the area. We got to get onto the boat without a long wait in line. He knew the best restaurants and places to shop. He took us to the local places of interest. Also, he was really funny! Our bus driver was amazing and gave us each a bottle of water, which was needed on the hot day! 10/10 definitely worth it!

Great time with Simona! The trip was me, my mother in law, my 2 year old, and my 7 month old, along with a big double stroller. It was a long day for the girls, but it was well worth it! Tours aren’t my kind of traveling, but this was an excellent way to see a lot in a short amount of time, especially not knowing whether we will be back or not. Simona was super fun and very knowledgeable. She helped me with the girls with getting on and off the boat, which was lifesaving.

The trip was excellent. Worth every penny. I realized once I got there that Lake Como is a large area and it would have taken a lot of time to explore myself. Probably multiple days. The beauty of joining a tour like this one is they take you to all the most important spots and explain to you the history of each spot. We got a lot of time to explore in como and Bellagio. Didn’t feel rushed at all. Our guide was excellent and kind. I highly recommend this tour.

Our travel guide Andreas was so knowledgeable about everywhere we were going and made sure to give us great recommendations for things like shopping, food, and sights to see. We learned a lot about the history of Como and Bellagio, and saw so many beautiful things! It was such a wonderful day and I would highly recommend Andreas as a travel guide! He was so personable and easy to get along with, we were all friends by the end of our tour!! Thanks so much for making our trip so memorable!!

My friend and I had such a great time on this trip! Our guide Andrea was very knowledgeable and friendly and we had the perfect amount of time with him and then alone to explore. We learnt plenty about the history of the area without it being like a lecture and the boat ride was incredible, thank you!

I had the best tour guide Oleg! He was so knowledgeable and made the tour amazing. He pointed out some amazing food places and was truly a great guy. I needed help getting a train back from Milan and he sat and helped me pick the right train so I would make it on time! Overall an amazing experience! Highly recommend checking the weather to pack accordingly

Beautiful location. The stop at Como was a bit too short and unfortunately we went on a day that happened to be a holiday so we weren’t able to visit the churches. The cruise was a bit too long and too focused on the lives of the rich and famous. But the scenery is stunning. Bellagio is a bit touristy with boats dropping people off every 30 minutes. Beautiful views of the lake and the mountains. Our tour guide was well organized but could have done a better job explaining things and providing more history.

One hour drive from Milan, you are already in a beautiful countryside!!!!! The bus was very comfortable, the guide and the driver were extremely welcoming and lovely. We really enjoyed our little trip. The little town Bellagio is so pretty, and also you get to see the breathtaking view of the mountains over the lake. Definitely worth the visit!

This was the best tour I have done in Italy, our guide, Stefano made the whole experience amazing. The places you visit are incredible, you have plenty of time at each stop, and Stefano have lots of interesting information during the tour sections. You also get free time if you want to get lunch, go shopping, go swimming etc. it's up to you which is perfect. Stefano also took us up to the mountains for an amazing view, it's worth it to go on this as you won't be able to get to those views if you visit Como independently by bus. Highly recommend.

A really well organised tour of lake como. The tour guide, stephano was friendly and helpful. It was a small group on the tour, and he interacted with everyone, making us all feel included. He gave us useful local information, showed us loads of fantastic sites and views, and historical facts from start to finish. A really great day, despite the constant rain.

She was very knowledgeable and gave deep cultural references and historical tidbits making it a very interesting tour

Very reliable, competent and friendly guide. It was three very interesting hours in which some secrets about Milan were revealed to us. The time flew by. A must-do for those interested in history and culture. Highly recommended!

Massimo was an excellent guide. We were able to experience the history and beauty of Milan in a condensed and entertaining way. I would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Milano for a short trip. The guide has lots of great history and humor to share

Guide very interesting, lots of details. Due to the weather, we were not able to go to the Duomo platform and the tour ended 1/2 hour earlier than planned

A very pleasant visit to Milan, Valeria is a very cultured guide who helps you discover many little-known aspects of the city. I recommend ++

Our tour guide, Marco, was very knowledgeable and informative. He was a great company, we enjoyed the tour and learned a lot about Milan’s history and neighborhoods. If you enjoy guided tours I would highly recommend this.

Our tour guide Stephanie was at the meeting place 15 minutes before and was waiting for us. She was excellent - very knowledgeable! We had an incredible tour of the Duomo. Highly recommend this tour. We started by visiting the terrace at the top, then made our way to the inside and ended at the basement. No lineups.

Our experience has been that the best time for guided tours is early in the morning. At this time not so many visitors are out and about.

Very good in-depth guidance. Guide had a lot of background knowledge and perfect language skills.

We had a very friendly, good German-speaking tourist guide (studied historian), who was well versed in historical questions about Milan Cathedral. The subsequent visit to the cathedral terraces and the roof in the evening sun were the absolute highlight! Highly recommended!

Nice guide (Laura) conveyed the history of the cathedral very well. The cathedral is definitely worth a visit.

Simon was an outstanding tour guide, he is very knowledgeable about the Duomo’s history and pointed out the different views of the city from the rooftop. I would definitely use him again!

The tour is definitely worth it. Punctual start, we didn't queue anywhere, top priority, the guide explained very well and in detail. Nice from start to finish !!! I advise!!

Cathedral is a must for every Milan visitor. Incredible building. German speaking guide was great and had a lot of interesting things to tell. At the elevator to the roof we could go straight past the queue. I can only recommend it to everyone. Meeting place was not easy to find. Plan a little more time and read the meeting point carefully on the tickets.

Excellent guided tour of the cathedral, underground, exterior and terraces. Two pleasant and informative hours. The guide was very prepared, he talked to us with passion about the cathedral and Milan in general, providing us with directions for the evening.

the trip met our expectations. The guide was perfectly prepared, a real enthusiast of what she does.

We were able to visit the Duomo accompanied by Lorella who turned out to be very professional and gave us a very complete visit in which she provided a lot of very valuable information. Thank you!

The tour was conducted in both Spanish and English. The Spanish speaking guide spoke three times as much as our English speaking guide, so I felt we missed a great deal. Guide was not very good at giving directions. The lake and the places visited are amazing and I’m so glad that I was able to visit here; however, guides do make a difference and our guide was a disappointment.

It was very well organized and convenient especially being with young children. We've seen a lot in a day. The boat trip was magnificent as we enjoyed views from the Lake Como, while we also visited Bellagio & Varenna. No wifi was on board the bus not as promoted. The english language was very poorly translated but the guide did her very best to try and explain. It was a great day.

This was an excellent trip! Como, Bellagio and Varenna are all so beautiful, they're well worth a visit for the stunning scenery. The tour was very well organised and the guides gave interesting information, as well as practical information on the best way to find toilets, when there would be chance to eat etc. There was 1-1.5 hours free time in each location, so enough to see the main views but not to explore each town fully. The boat ride from Como to Bellagio is 2 hours. The view is beautiful, I'd recommend standing at the back of the boat rather than sitting to make the most of the view (if you're OK with standing for that long!) Its a long day and quite tiring, and a whistle-stop tour of each town, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! I was glad I did this tour with Varenna included as well as its very pretty. Overall this is a great trip that really made my holiday, and well worth doing if you're in Milan!

Honestly this tour offers so much for this price! You get a walking tour of Como, 2 bus rides (going and coming back on a different route), 2 beautiful boat rides as well and guidance and explanations from the tour guides every step of the way. The guides were friendly and gave good explanations. I recommend this tour!

A well organised trip, from pick up to back to Milan. Thoroughly enjoyed the boat trip on Lake Como with the commentary, although at times could not hear the Rep. She would seek us out and explain the sights, so we didn't feel we missed out. Walking tour in Como was very useful for getting your bearings. Definitely would return to Como. Bellagio was beautiful, had a great meal here. A trip that i would recommend

An incredible experience and I feel like I saw so much of the Lake Como area! Both guides were super friendly and helpful! You get free time to walk around and take photos but also sit down and eat. The bus was clean and had ac! One of the best days ever for me! Would highly recommend this trip to everyone and want to go again!

Very little time in bellagio considering that you have to eat The explanations of the guide during the two-hour cruise very concise with what ends up being a bit boring I suggest that being such short times for the visit in each place you should include the visit with a guide to really take advantage of the tour

The guides were extremely helpful! They made getting onto the ferries very easy, skipping the line was nice. English can be improved as there was more facts said in spanish. Unfortunately, the bud has no wifi. The areas visited are 100% worth it. I calculated doing this itinerary myself which would of saved $$ but the timing was much much better to do this tour. Worked out great!

This was a fantastic trip! The tour was done in Spanish, French and English but was managed well by the 2 guides. Brilliant facts throughout and you are able to visit some lovely places. My only recommendation would be to stay near the guide on the boat as the radio signal is broken if you’re too far away and you miss some information.

Cool!!! It is a beautiful excursion! Everything has been very well organized, which has meant that the time has already been used very well. It has been perfect. And our guide, Angelo, has been magnificent: super attentive, with very good explanations and a great professional. The same the driver, Luciano. Great driver and great person!! a hug to both of you from Spain

Our tour guide was the best, it felt like a VIP tour since we choose language Spanish and my partner and I were the only ones. Very normal pace and got to discover the beautiful views and history of Lake Como. Definitely recommend and will go again when we get the chance to visit.

Unfortunately, there was a strike and we couldn't make to Bellagio and Varenna, but the agency was super helpful and offered a trip to Lugano and a boat trip in the lake. That was great... Lugano is a beautiful medieval city full of nice medieval paved paths and small stores.

Overall a great trip. Tour guide and bus driver were thoughtful and provided great insight to the destinations. Spent an hour in Lugano before proceeding to Lake Como. The boat ride at the end of the day was long and hot as there were limited outdoor seats, but that had nothing to do with the tour company. Easy to navigate meeting times and multiple boat transfers with the talented guide. Long day with a lot of walking but an incredible experience.

Overall great experience. The boat trip on Lake Como was a bit of a let down. It was just the standard ferry that goes from city to city on the lake. We had to wear our headsets to hear any sort of information about what we were passing by. And because it was just the standard ferry some of the group had to sit on the lower deck and could barely see anything. I would still recommend doing this, purely because I imagine the logistics of planning a day trip like this would be quite the pain. The guides were great!

The day was lovely We particularly liked Lugano. Disappointed about the boat trip. I read, and was mentioned on the coach, that we would have famous houses pointed out, but the boat trip was a communal one with other travellers from Bellagio to Como, with no mention through our headsets.

This was a beautiful excursion and quite the value! Finding our guide at the meeting spot was simple as he was clearly identifiable. Simone was very pleasant, funny and informative! The bus driver was incredible as he navigated the treacherous twists and turns of the roads. The sites were stunning!!!! It was a great combination of bus touring, self touring, guided touring and boat touring. I highly recommend this excursion!!

Our guide Valentino was very insightful and funny. Thoroughly enjoyed this trip! There was sufficient time to walk around Lugano, Bellagio and Como. She even gave us recommendations to dine at!! (The food places she recommended were all really good!!!!) she was very funny and it made this trip really enjoyable. Thumbs up for the driver who drove us around and also our amazing guide.

Value for money ,114 euro to go to 3 beautiful places , lake como at first with 2 free hours to explore then bellagio another 1 and a half hour free time and the highlight for me luggano only one hour free time but trust its enough to explore the city centre.Our Guide Jo was very helpful and waited for people that were a bit late.

The trip was a once in a lifetime experience and worth every penny! Oleg was a very resourceful and knowledgeable tour guide who knew a lot of facts about each area we visited. The tour was very well organised and very on time at each location we went to. If any questions were asked they were always answered! Just make sure to arrive on time, if you are running late by 5mins or so when arriving then you may miss the tour!

Sonia and Valentina were amazing tour guides, the best I've had from many tours. The driver Claudio was very capable. Tour is organised well, with ample time in Lugano and especially Bellaggio. Como cruise was also nice and informative. Boat is a bit crowded but thats expected. Overall highly recomended

it was a road trip mostly. we couldn't have enough time on the places we visited, just 40 mins to 1h30m so I can't say I had fun but the places we have been was very great. the history and culture the guide told us along the way was informative and fun. but I wish I had more time on the cities we have been

Tour and tour guide were terrific. However, I paid for the tour twice by mistake. Once on Sept 22 USD 116.61 on Amex ending...5005 and on Sept 24 USD 112.31 on Master Charge ending....5650. Please credit payment to my Master Charge A/C for USD 123.31 and confirm. I brought the duplicate payment issue to the attention of the tour guide and she made a note that there was only one participant on the tour Sunday, Sept 25. Thank you. Francis Bruno

The trip was marvellous, it was so well organized and according to what was mentioned in the tours details. Both guides Sonia and Valantina were excellent with their demonstrated explanation and hospitality, a very recommended tour with a lot of lovely landscapes.

Best day trip I’ve ever done. Would highly recommend, packed so much into one day. Lugano, Bellagio and Lake Como are all beautiful. The guides Sonia & Valentina were great. Just the perfect amount of interaction without being over the top. They also provided some great recommendations along the way. Despite being a long day, it’s worth every minute.

Everything worked out wonderfully, almost no queue. With almost 40 degrees Celsius on the cathedral square, it is highly recommended to buy the ticket in advance. Unfortunately, due to the Corona security measures (closed rooms, no air circulation), the crypt and a museum, which are normally part of the entrance, were closed.

Would definitely recommend to go see this beautiful place.Such an incredible artistic and full of history place.

Most amazing Gothic cathedral I have ever seen in my life, we purchased the direct entrance ticket but there was no direct line, we had to go in the general line. There’s no point purchasing this ticket. Just buy a regular ticket. Go early morning at 9 o’clock and it should be fine. We had a one year old baby in a stroller, I have no trouble taking that in.

Fantastic experience, i will surely recommend it to travelers. We took our bus from Milan Cathedral and really enjoy the tour, along with my friends.

Long queues in front of the ticket counters and at the entrance....with a few clicks I had bought 2 tickets. The booking confirmation followed shortly afterwards with a mobile QR code + email. Tickets were checked in a tedious process before access - I showed our booking confirmation on my cell phone and we were immediately waved through. From the first click it took less than 5 minutes! Brilliant!

Great app, easy to purchase tickets on the spot. Will always use this app from now on!

very cool - we didn't have access to the terrace, then you saw the cathedral very quickly - it's worth it! But sometimes a better view of the altar would be e.g. nice (was possibly not possible because of the construction work) - if you want to see the outer architecture of the cathedral, you should book the terrace

A magnificent cathedral where the architecture and the stained glass windows are splendid. I was full of admiration in front of all this work accomplished centuries before.

The most convenient way to get tickets is through this app. Unfortunately for us the weather did not cooperate. But once inside we were no longer bothered by that. Very impressive building that makes you wonder “how did they make this”. Well worth a visit if you are in Milan.

We had an amazing time! The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and gave great insight into the historical part of Milan, as well as the modern day life of locals. We were lucky to be the only people in the group and it turned out to be a VIP tour. Our guide even explained us the little details about certain palazzos and construction of the city. I would recommend anyone who is visiting Milan to even take this tour twice!

Our guide was excellent! She spoke great English and was extremely knowledgeable and always checking to make sure we were all doing okay as it was a hot day. She allowed us to have a bit of free time to grab water and sit down. I highly recommend this tour!!

Katerina Panayotova was excellent. Knowledgeable, considerate, good sense of humor. Duomo: had new insight to stained glass, statutes, history. Same for Last Supper. Pointed out symbols that DaVinci used in the painting. History, restoration. Same for castle and pointed out things/buildings as we walked through area. Learned so much. Wish I had taken tours before in other cities. Highly recommend this guide and company

We are glad we did the tour. We aren’t your people but we learned about things we wouldn’t have and it made entry to all the tourist sites easy especially the last supper. We were given 30 mins at sforza castle to wander, use bathrooms and get drinks which was a nice touch. I was worried about the group tour but it wasn’t a large group (10 people) and everyone was very respectful of each other’s space, etc.

I really enjoyed my tour with Mariska. She was very knowledgeable and energetic. She kept the group interacted and provided many details on the history and background of Milan and the visited places during the tour. She was also very helpful in proving provided information that was unrelated to our tour. 3.5hr tour flied by ai quickly.

Fantastic tour, definitely worth taking. Elisa, our tour guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable on all things related to the Duomo, Galleria, Sforza Castle and finally the Last Supper which her detailed explanation given of DaVinci’s thought process and execution was really the icing on the cake. Well worth the expense. Wear comfortable shoes and be prepared to walk for the approximate 3 hrs as you traverse Milan.

Meeting point was easy to find, the guide was on time and very knowledgeable. The only thing I would remind people who sign up to go to the bathroom and have their shoulders covered before coming to the meeting: we wasted some time for people having to go and buy shawls and having to go to the bathroom on the way.

Marikha was an excellent tour guide. She knows so much about the history of Milan and is so passionate. I loved how she turned us all in the characters to help us u d’état and the history of the castle we visited. Even my teenage boys enjoyed it. The Last Supper is a must see and we took a stroll through many major sites in Milan. One of the best tours we did during our time in Italy.

The Guide was excellent. She spoke perfect English and had a depth of knowledge and enthusiasm unlike other guides we encountered in Europe. The only minor issue was, no one in the group knew the tour would last 4 hours. I thought we were going into the Duomo then to see the Last Supper. Of the 4 hours, 3 hours spent walking and walking, and walking, from The Duomo through the entire arts district (and not stopping to see anything). After 3.5 the group finally got to the beautiful painting which made the grueling 93 degree heat, walking about 5+ miles worth it.

We met Simone, our Guide fifteen minutes before the tour started and we were handed our audio guides. A couple of people were late and Simone waited a few minutes after the starting time to see if they would arrive before we set off. It was a great tour and we saw all the major sights of Milan with the highlight of seeing The Last Supper at the end. Everything was incredible and despite the busyness of the City Simone looked out for everyone and adjusted things slightly to accommodate a few, who wished for a break. He was so knowledgeable, informative and enthusiastic. We couldn't have imagined a better Guide and would like to thank him for providing us with a wonderful morning in central Milan.

This was an excellent tour - the guide was very friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and spoke excellent English. There were 12 people on the tour, all of whom were given listening devices so it was easy to hear the guide as she walked. The tour was about three and a half hours, including ample time inside the duomo and the maximum allowed (15 minutes) viewing the Last Supper. I'm very glad that I chose this tour.

We had the best day and tour of the beautiful city of Milan with Simon as our guide. His insight and knowledge of the city was incredibly valuable as we toured the Duomo, Last Supper and the Sforza Castle. It was one of the highlights of our Italy trip, and a memory we will never forget. Thank you Simon for sharing your expertise with us!

Good but not great. Did not appreciate transporting us to the church to view The Last Supper, which was the final stop, but returning to the pick up site up to us to find our own way back-odd. Also the guide was difficult to hear. She used a microphone and we all had ear phones(only the right side of mine worked).

This was a great way to see 3 “must sees” in Milan if you have limited time! Guide was knowledgeable and added many perspectives that would have been missed if you just read about La Scala, Duomo and the Last Supper. It was a large group and she had to translate English and German, but managed to do so effectively. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Our lady guide was professional, knowledgeable and very nice. Saw Leonardo’s “Last Supper” - arguably his greatest masterpiece; the massive Duomo and the interior of the La Scala Opera House. I would recommend spending 15 minutes INSIDE Santa Maria delle Grazie church as the paintings are magnificent.

This was a great experience. Our guide was knowledgeable and there was plenty of time to stop at each location. My only critique is that we were not able to stop for food/water at all during the tour. If you plan on doing this one, especially with teenagers- I would recommend bringing a water bottle and possibly snacks too. Overall I would recommend the tour.

Great tour and a great way to see as much of Milan as possible in a short time! Our guide, Beatrice, obviously loves her hometown of Milan and shared a history of the city with some great personal reflections of how the citizens have been affected by historical events.

Good guide makes the world of difference. Get Beatrice if you can. She was young but so much knowledge and so experienced in managing her group. This activity was great and a lot packed into the 3.5 hours. Money well spent and a great time had by all even though the day was hot thanks to Beatrice watching out for us all.

For the October 3rd, 2018 2:30pm English speaking tour, our tour guide was excellent. He made sure that everyone was comfortable, able to hear him, and following him at all the places we toured, especially at the Last Supper. There he gave a thorough and informative description of what we were looking at, and of Michelangelo's technique and what he was attempting to say, as well as the effect of the various restorations the painting has undergone over 500 years. Not only was he obviously knowledgeable about Milan in general and the sites we visited, we enjoyed his stories and his sense of humor. I would highly recommend your company and this tour.

Excellent knowledgeable guide who spoke each sentence in English, Spanish, Italian. Bring your earbuds or use theirs. Audio quality good except on the top of the bus, where I also would have liked to learn more about the city. Not complaining though—this tour included much info touring La Scala museum and the company in rehearsal. FYI buy a separate ticket to go to the top of the Duomo.

Our guide, Massimo, was excellent! Knowledgeable and interesting. The tour is long, but fun, and most importantly, took us to the BEST places to see in Milan: Duomo, Scala (I was pleasantly surprised when we went inside!), and the Last Supper. Definitely recommend!

We so enjoyed the trip. I am disabled and the kindness of the guide to be sure both me and my friend were accommodated was so appreciated. The guide was informative and willing to answer questions as we went along. We all three enjoyed every places we visited and will have cherished memories. Thank you.

Guide handled the 2 languages with ease - English/Portuguese. Gave each language ample explanation. Never left either group (in my opinion) feeling left out or not taken care of. I liked the fact that he had the English group 'moving' towards' the next room, venue or location while he gave the explanation in Portuguese. Made us feel like we were doing something while he was taking care of the others. Great job.

The tour was quick but if you want to see the Duomo (but not the rooftop), the Galleria beside it, the opera house and The Last Supper it is a easy way to do it in a condensed format. It is all walkable on your own if you have the time. The guide was knowledgeable and can provide information that you wouldn't get on your own.

The tour guide was very informative and guided us through the history of the painting and the church. She then took us on a walking tour which was also at a reasonable pace and even stop for toilet breaks and ice cream. It was a bit difficult to find the guide outside the church as they had not put up their flag. Once I found the guide they take you to collect your tickets for the church and then you can leave your bags in a locker which you can collect after the church visit.

Our tour guide today was exceptional, her knowledge, friendliness and good humour made the whole tour excellent! Three hours is a long time to fill with information but she made it interesting right the way through, thanks for making it such a good experience!

Your quite needs updating Told we had to wear a FFP2 type of face mask. Bought them especially. No mask required!! Also told that no shorts permitted. Again this is incorrect Many men had shorts on I complied with the instruction and wore long trousers. Not comfortable in 28 degree sunshine Finally instruction state tour finishing where it started. Not the case

Our guide was wonderful, she explained in detail everything we looked at especially The Last Supper. It was very hot and she did her best to walk us in the shade. She was very knowledgeable and the tour was worth every penny. Please send her our gratitude.

Terrific morning spent it terrific Milan weather. The explanations and history of The Last Supper were worth the cost if the tour alone. Lovely walk into the city centre viewing the key city tourist spots was very enjoyable. The guide was very knowledgeable and always able to answer questions. The earphones worked flawlessly through crowds over distance and through castle walls! Highly recommended.

"Had a great guide who gave lots of information. Time is short seeing the Last Supper but enjoyed it. Walking tour gave an overall view of downtown Milan. Would recommend doing this tour early in your visit so you know what else you want to see. They were Amazing in their response time and confirming I found my group!! "

I booked this tour to ensure that I see the Last Supper. This tour exceeded my expectations largely because of the very excellent guide. Before we were allowed to enter to see the fresco, she provided us with excellent background on the Leonardo, why he came to Milan, and his relationships with the Sforza family. She also explained how the process that Leonardo used was different from the traditional fresco method. Once in front of the work, her comments were clear and illustrated her depth of knowledge. After seeing the painting, we were able to get into the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie to see the original building and the Bramante addition. The walking tour then took us to the immense Sforzesco Castle where she provided interesting family history. I am glad that the medieval Piazza Mercanti area was included because one might miss it. At the Galleria V. Emanuele II she explained the Milan equivalent of "kissing the blarney stone" and we ended at the Duomo. Great guide and tour.

We met at the Last Supper church and the guide took us in and gave us great information about it. Then we walked around Milan. The guide told us a lot about the history of the area. We had to leave before it was over but we were very glad we took this tour.

I wasn’t please at first to be spending so much on “the last supper” viewing so I added a walking tour which turned out to be a great combination. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly and looked after our large group. The lineup for tickets and viewing was very timely and she provided good background information before the viewing. I highly recommend doing the combination.

This tour was very interesting and informative and the viewing of the original painting of the Last Supper was amazing and well worth seeing. Our guide had excellent knowledge was able to answer all the questions put to him. The only downside was that it was a very hot day over 95 degrees and we had adhered to the dress code of no shorts or sleeveless tops making it very hot and uncomfortable but other people were allowed to complete the tour in items that were supposedly not allowed unchallenged. Our tour guide was very good at finding the shaded areas before stopping to give information.

Knowledgeable and entertaining. Honestly a part of the reason for signing up was last minute attempts to see The Last Supper. It starts there. We enjoy the value added of a walking tour and guide to enhance the touring experience and this certainly delivered. Covered a lot of ground and hit the highlights.

The tour of the Michaelangelo Last Supper was great. It would have been good if the tour described the places covered in the walk afterward. It turned out to be the Sforza Castle, the La Scala, and the Duomo. We had just walked from Sforza, so it was a bit disappointing (and tiring).

Had the most amazing time. Sonya - our tour guide - was absolutely amazing (as well as Luca, our driver), she kept us laughing all day, and was so knowledgeable. A really organised trip, had short tours with the group but got a lot of free time which we loved. Kept the whole trip entertaining and interesting. Would highly recommend. Definitely worth the price rather than trying to navigate it all ourselves!

It's really worth the money! We never do guided tours since we prefer to have full control of our touristic schedules. That's why we wanted to plan this trip by our own, but decided to try the tour thanks to some reviews here. It was surprising to realize during the tour how difficult it could had been to recreate the same experience by our own. Specially because of the transportation logistics. The tour helps you seize the time way much better, since it's personalized and private. The only thing we didn't love was the time spent at Como. Even though we visited an important building, the free time there was basically worth it only if you wanted to do shopping. We would had deeply preferred to spend more time at Varenna, since we got there at lunch time and had to spent almost the entire free time at a restaurant. This was due to a logistic change: the tour was supposed to visit Como first, but in our experience we traveled in the opposite order, arriving Varenna first and Como last.

This is a perfect day trip. Straight to the point and deliver what we are here to experience: 3 unique small towns and a short sightseeing in boating trip. The weather was a bit gloomy and lots of rain, but otherwise it was short, sweet, and efficient. Our tour guide and driver were excellent. Small tips, don't forget to spare cash to tip the staffs (if you want). Digital tipping is not yet accepted.

This was a fantastic tour. The itinerary was excellent. We saw so much of Lake Como, more than anticipated. The stop in Como was wonderful because despite being fall/winter it was a lively place with lots of open stores. The drive around the lake was fantastic and filled with lots of informative details, including a view of George Clooney's house from the road! The boat ride was also awesome where we saw lots of famous and beautiful villas. Bellagio and Varenna were beautiful and worthy stops despite many stores being closed for the season. Claudia was an excellent tour guide who not only provided seamless sightseeing information for Lake Como in both English and Spanish, but also a lot of great information for Milan. Giorgio was a great driver and ensured we got to/from our destinations safely. This was a highlight of our time in Milan and Europe. Will definitely want to return to Lake Como for a longer trip thanks to this visit. Highly recommend!

Great experience, amazing day trip with a great tour guide. we could see the villa from House of Gucci from the boat cruise. The tour stopped at Verenna, Bellagio and Como. The coach was comfy, the cruise experience was great too. We also got the chance to eat local food which was truly amazing. 100% recommended!!

I really enjoyed this tour. The guide was friendly and knowledge and the coach was comfortable and clean although the WiFi wasn’t working that day. The only thing I would change is to have a bit more time in Varenna so it is not as rushed and get back to Milan at the 11 hour mark. I highly recommend the tour. The boat rides on Lake Como were my favorite part.

The overall trip was really good - included a boat ride across Lake Como and the bus was good too. Our guide was an elder gentleman whose name I can't recall unfortunately but he was just awesome. He gave us good facts and was approachable for any information and presented well. The improvement area could be on the time allocation. The stop for lunch was at Bellagio where most of our time was spent just having lunch because of the crowds and wait time. If we had 30 mins more would have been perfect. While reducing some time at the last stop Como would have balanced this out. Not too much walking was involved but would still recommend wearing comfortable shoes as some areas are a bit steep.

Getting to see the entire area, several villages and touring the lake via water taxi was fantastic. Lunch in Bellagio was really nice. Our guide was super knowledgeable and did a great job. My only issue was the lack of places to have a "bio break". LOL

We had a very good experience, everything went smoothly. The guide was brilliant, she had stories to tell about every part of the journey, both historical details and more pop stuff - eg G Clooney villa etc. She spoke in English and Spanish and gave clear instructions on when/where to meet. Also suggested where to eat etc. The driver was excellent too, plus comfy coach. And the places themselves - the Lake, the villages, Como - all lovely. Would recommend!

Overall the tour is well planned and the guide with us was very helpful and informative. However, I wish there was more time to spend in Bellagio which was the best part of the tour. The tour was ruined due to heavy rain and mist which was understandably beyond the control of the tour operator.

This trip was fantastic. Our guide, an older Italian gentleman, whom I cannot remember his name now, with a dry sense of humor that I appreciated, did a great job switching between English and Spanish throughout the day. Our driver, Lucca, was also terrific and I applaud his skill in maneuvering on some of the windy, narrow roads. Each town was unique and enjoyable to walk around and explore. Have a cappuccino and pastry in Como, lunch in Bellagio, and cafe & gelato in Varenna. Grazie mille for the tours and wonderful memories!

It's hard to find a boat or ferry to move around Lake Como during winter. This day tour provides the private ferry service to cater to winter season. My guide, Franco, was good in explaining the various attractions. It was an enjoyable trip cover Como, Bellagio & Varenna from 8.45am to 6.15pm.

The trip was amazing bus was very comfortable. It’s a must for all visitors. Our tour guide was excellent. Como lake it’s like a dream. And our second stop to Lugano was unique. Many Thanks

The trip along Lake Como was spectacular, undoubtedly to be redone. Incredible landscapes and fantastic cities. Thanks to the guide Eddy I enjoyed the tour like I have never done. Congratulations to the Zani agency and see you soon.

We had Inna as our tour guide, she really took care of me yesterday. I was the only one who had disability and she made sure that I was safe and comfortable and able to catch up with the group. We had the Como and Lugano tour and they are both beautiful places, especially Como.

The guides were excellent and extremely helpful. We started on time and enjoyed the day.

I cant thank enough Salvatore our tourist guide who made everything to make us happy during the trip

Our original trip to lugano and cuomo was cancelled, but was swapped out for a trip to lake como and bellagio. Our tour guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. Unfortunately our boat tour was cut short a bit due to some issues, but our bus was able to save the day! We lost time in bellagio due to it, and with the cancellation that’s why its a 4/5 for me. If not, it would be an easy 5 stars

We really liked our bus driver Domenico and our guide was amazing! She provided lots of great details, and was engaging. The one improvement would be to lessen the time in Lugano to 1.5 hours and increase the time touring around Lake Como.

This day trip was beyond amazing. Our tour guide Guissepina was very patient, calm and knowledgeable. She really took care of us. We met at the meeting point at about 8.50 am and got handed our audio materials. At 9am we set off for Como on the very comfortable coach. We arrived Como after an hour and had a guided tour of the beautiful city. Then we were left to wander on our own for about 30 mins. We met up again and headed to the port to wait for our boat to take us across the lake. The views were amazing! Breathtaking! The cruise lasted an hour and we came back to land. We went straight to have lunch and rested for about half an hour. We met up again at about 2pm to join the coach taking us to Lugano. We got to Lugano after about 50 mins, our passports didn’t get checked at the border but I have heard it gets checked randomly. We had a guided tour of Lugano then left to wander on our own for about 1.5 hours. We met again at about 5.30pm to take the train back to Milan. Wonderful!!!
