Fabulous way to get to know Milan. Would recommend you do this tour before anything else to get your bearings and a bit of history!! Polina our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly! Thoroughly enjoyed it!

We had some extra time in Milan, so we chose to see the vineyard. The villa is amazing to walk through and the grounds are beautiful. The audio is very informative.

Great value and super interesting - we did this before visiting the Last Supper painting and the background helped.

Excellent guide with exceptional knowledge. Wonder experience.

Great fun and even some interactive activities to do.
