Very nice tour....Lady bus conductor was very co-operative..She guided us about market, bus timings, services in a well manner. I would recommend to purchase this tour...Bus service is unlimited, you can cover city easily.

I had the most amazing day on this bus/boat/bernina train experience. The views literally are so breathtaking and don’t make any sense!! It’s the best way to spend a day!

I like to do this in every European city. It’s a great overview of a city and a bit of historical background.

Great way to see the city when you only have a limited time.

Great tour of important areas of Milan. Comfortable ride.
