Wonderful tour. Highly recommended.

Walking tours are usually not very child friendly. But this was fantastic. Firstly it was stroller accessible which was great as we had a 5 year old who tire easily over the course of the 3hrs+ tour. Secondly our tour guide Francesca was just lovely. She is patient and interacts well with children which is a nice change from tours which tended to be more adult centric. Francesca was very knowledgeable and you can see her passion as she explains. Finally we loved sforza castle and the duomo. So much history and just so beautiful. This was a really wonderful tour.

Amazing guide and tour...!!

Chiara was the name of our tour guide...Milan is a wonderful city...both of them were amazing...!! Milan is one the great Italian cities of all times, it has everything. For people like me who are history lovers, Milan is a jewel. So much has happened there that affects the world even today...like the legacy of Leonardo da Vinci who lived there under the auspices of the legendary Ludovico Sforza, and the famous "Last Supper" painting. Or the Duomo di Milano Cathedral, magnificent example of the Italian Gothic style, full of incredible treasures... Chiara --our guide-- made the half day tour feel short...she was funny, full of energy and very knowledgable...a very memorable experience...!!

So disappointed ..

You cancelled on us via email as we were walking to the pick-up point - the day of this scheduled tour I'm waiting for a refund from you - and disappointed in your LATE notice of cancellation. You messed up my day in Milan.

canceled but took payment

We paid for the tour then got a call 3 hours before the tour was to start, that they did not have a guide. That was over a week ago they still have not refunded our money.

The best tour ever

We booked a 7 hour Milan walking tour with Expedia and can honestly say that this was one of the best tours ever. Right from the start our exceptional tour guide Charles as he is known, was outstanding. His knowledge of all the sights was well displayed constantly telling our group some amazing facts and tidbits. A slight French / Italian accent but in English made for a remarkable day adding a bit of humour to some interesting facts. . Myself being a bit of a history buff was blown away by his outstanding knowledge and skill in articulating facts. Clearly he is well versed in local Milanese knowledge. My compliments to whoever found Charles. He kept our group tight and never lost anyone in such a busy city. Everything that was in our itinerary were well covered and well worth the cost of the tour! Not to be missed. Signed....a seasoned Canadian traveller.
