- KiwiAussieteenageson0 contributionsOutstanding food tour with amazing food and great guidesGuilia and Antonio were friendly and knowledgeable. Guilia shared lots of stories about the food, Milan and Italy. She made sure everyone was included in conversations. The tour was an excellent pace and Guilia and Antonio made sure we had enough water to drink in the heat. The food was incredible - especially the Parma prosciutto and the gelato. We like how all the shops included in the tour had lots of local history.Written July 28, 2024
- lorirC6341LF0 contributionsFood and Facts in Beautiful Brera DistrictWe loved our Brera district walking tour! The tour started out with some pizza and each subsequent stop was another course in a Milano meal. The food was excellent. The places we visited were all great and gave us an opportunity to visit the beautiful Brera district, far from the touristy cites. Our guide was lovely. She gave us not only a description of a Milano meal, and history of Milan in general, but also answered questions about seasonal foods in Milan and how she cooks with them. It was an informative and fun tour. I highly recommend!Written July 21, 2024
- Ron M0 contributionsGreat city tourJulia was great. The trip was the perfect way to get the city overview and learn what to do afterwards. I would definitely recommend it.Written July 16, 2024
- V2David0 contributionsAwesome sightseeing in fun style!!Ww did a private tour for 2. Awesome!! Segway were very easy to get around on (without any experience). This is a great way to see alot of major sites in a short period of time while zooming along on the Segways. Our tour guide was the best. He gave us a lot of interesting facts while keeping the conversation lively. Definitely highly recommended!Written July 8, 2024
- travellercjd0 contributionsFun and interesting Segway tour of MilanWe took this tour with our family of 4 (including 2 sons, ages 22 and 24). Our tour guide was Antonio. All of us really enjoyed this tour and felt that Antonio was a fantastic guide. He made sure everyone in our group of 8 could safely operate the Segway, then we took off. The route was perfect...we saw a castle, the Duomo, the Teatro al Scalia, went through the Brera neighborhood, saw shopping areas, etc. We stopped at major sites and listened to Antonio's explanations of them through the earpiece listening systems. Despite there being plenty of people around these areas, crowds were never an issue with us navigating on the Segways. Antonio always made sure everyone made it safely across all intersections. Finally, having been on several Segway tours, I felt that these machines in particular were maintained very well and were very smooth and easy to operate. This was a wonderful tour, and I would highly recommend it.Written June 25, 2024
- aubreb20240 contributionsViator Customer Service HORRIBLE.I can’t review the tour itself, as we never actually made it there. As far as I know, our tour guide waited for us to arrive late which was very kind of them. I’m sure it was a great tour, we didn’t get to experience it, so I can’t comment on how the tour itself went. But it looked nice. We had an emergency that morning and wasn’t able to attend, my phone broke and we didn’t even have a working phone to contact the tour group. I requested a refund after explaining my situation, immediately denied from some random customer service member who responded to my request within 3 minutes, and could care less about my situation. Which is disappointing, because I’ve traveled with TripAdvisor and Viator many of times through the years with no issues. I’m in a country I don’t know, with a phone that doesn’t work, scrambling around to ASK someone where I can fix my phone on a Sunday with a lot of places closed. (couldn’t look anything up it was broken) before I left for my next destination the following morning. The last thing I was worried about was a Segway tour. Considering traveling is so expensive in general, it would have been to be approved for a refund during this emergency of mine and I would have continued to use trip advisor for bookings in the future. Not anymore! I hope Kristie from customer service breaks her phone on vacation too 😊Written June 24, 2024
- Kath7960 contributionsDon’t miss this amazing tour.Antonio was the perfect guide. He got us safely round Milan with no incidents. Plenty of time for photo stops and a fantastic amount of information about Milan and Italy. One of the best things to do. Can’t recommend it highly enough.Written June 12, 2024
- Sticksnstone0 contributionsEnjoyable food tour!Had an enjoyable time with Antonio as our guide. He was informative and fun. The tour took us through areas of Brera and the tastings were delicious especially the risotto. The group was not too big and there was definitely enough food provided. No hesitation at all recommending this tour.Written June 1, 2024

We booked this tour in March for an October trip. It was cancelled in June due to “unavailability” of Duomo tickets. We had built our Milan itinerary around this particular tour since it did the underground area. The Duomo itself shows tickets available for that date for half an hour later, at virtually the same time. Very disappointing but I guess we’ll save money.

Hi there, I'm so sorry that the tour was cancelled and I'm very happy that you were able to find a replacement and still get to visit the beautiful cathedral. Unfortunately the duomo changed our contract without giving us much warning, and the new contract meant that we could no longer receive the tickets that we had been banking on - in fact we have had to suspend the tour altogether. We are just as disappointed about this as you are, but once again my apologies for the last-minute cancellation

If you're looking for a good way to spend an afternoon, this is it! The plaza outside the Duomo has a lot of shops and restaurants to check out while waiting for the tour to begin. Just looking at the building from the outside doesn't do it justice. You have to see whats on the inside, underneath, and from on top! Being up on the top gives you a full panoramic view of Milan, and allows you to study all of the architectures detail up close. Going inside the main church area gives you the full scope of how big this place truly is. It's an incredible feeling seeing how something like this could even be built. Our guide was very knowledgeable, and answered every question asked.

Ciao!
we are very happy that you enjoyed the tour with us! You are right! The Duomo is very impressive and to see all of its beauty, you have to go also inside and reach the terraces where you can find a spectacular view. The guides will always tell you something interesting about its history and about all the type of art that it contains.
Regards,
Sarah

I took this tour with my husband and teenage son. The guide was lovely and she managed to keep us all interested. Her knowledge was excellent. I would have rated the tour excellent but there were more people on the tour than was detailed in the information and at the beginning of the tour the guide kept being interrupted by her office trying to join us up with an extremely late member of the tour.

The Duomo was terrific and the visit to the roof was awesome. Our tour guide was very nice with a lot of information and loved to share it, but he really didn't organize the tour or stop us to convey his info to a group. He was very willing to take all questions even allowing a couple tourists to delay the tour . The microphones were not very effective either, tough to hear and with limited range. We'd certainly go back, but would look for a different tour.

We had less than 24 hours in Milan and didn’t want to miss out on the Duomo. This tour was worth every minute and every penny!! Our guide, Mirella, was FANTASTIC. I really cannot emphasize how much we enjoyed her during the 2.5-3 hours we had. She was so passionate and knowledgeable not only about the Duomo itself but the history of Milan and history of Italy in general. Our group was a nice size of 8 people and we went along at a great pace. The terraces were absolutely breathtaking. One part of the tour that was unexpectedly special was seeing the underground area and ruins - so fascinating! If you are short on time in Milan and want to really soak up everything the Duomo has to offer, book this tour!! You won’t be disappointed.

Absolutely true!
If you are coming to Milan you can't miss the visit to the Duomo. It's very beautiful and there are a lot of things to discover about it. The view from its terraces is breathtaking and the underground ruins are something you can't see always, all together make the tour fantastic!
Thanks for joining me during the discovery of the Duomo.

Mirella

Hi, am planning a tour in end Nov to early Dec, understand that Duomo may be closed earlier at 4.30pm. Would this tour still commence at 2.30pm? Thanks
Written July 11, 2018
The full tour is three hours so I suspect there would be a problem. But I would be surprised if they would sell a three hour tour if there was not time to complete it. Perhaps 4:30 is when the Duomo stops letting people enter? The last part of the tour was underground of an earlier church foundation which was only mildly interesting.
