What to expect
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Duomo di Milano, Piazza del Duomo, 20122 Milan Italy
If your time in Milan is limited, or if you want an overview to guide your exploration, this one-day walking tour is the perfect introduction, taking in all the most prominent sights – including guaranteed entry to see Da Vinci’s ‘The Last Supper’.
Led by your local, English-speaking guide, you’ll visit some iconic sights and some on the path less travelled. You’ll get to skip the line at Milan Duomo and experience this world-famous cathedral without waiting – unlike the city itself, which waited nearly 600 years for the incredible building to be completed.
The tour will pause again so you can admire the medieval Sforza Castle, before delving into the cobbled streets of the Brera district. This is the beating heart of Milan’s social and cultural life, as your guide will explain. You’ll hear about all the famous artists and thinkers that have called Brera home, as well as some more up-to-date recommendations of places to revisit later for a drink or a meal.
Duration: 2 hours 30 minutes
Stop At: Castello Sforzesco, Piazza Castello, 3, 20121 Milan Italy
You'll see another architectural wonder at the Medieval Sforza Castle, which your guide will explain from the outside.
Duration: 10 minutes
Pass By: Brera District, Via Pontaccio, Via FatebeneFratelli, Via dei Giardini, Via Monte di Pieta, Via Ponte Vetero and Via Mercato., Milan Italy
Along the way you’ll pass through the cobbled streets of the Brera district where you’ll find the heart of Milan’s social life. With your guide leading the way you’ll hear about the artists and intellectuals that once called these streets home, and get some tips on where to visit for a meal or a drink later.
Pass By: Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, Piazza del Duomo, 20123 Milan Italy
Our next stop is the impressive Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, a 19th century glass vaulted shopping arcade. Brimming with fashionable shops and cafés, it is often called the drawing room of Milan for its importance as a common meeting point. Passing through the Gallery we arrive at Piazza della Scala, the square which houses the world renowned Scala Theatre – Milan’s Opera House since 1778 which is still in use. Some of the greatest musicians and singers in history have performed here, notably Giuseppe Verdi whose famous operas, such as Falstaff, often premiered in this very theatre.
Stop At: Il Cenacolo, Piazza Santa Maria delle Grazie, 20123 Milan Italy
It all builds to a viewing of Leonardo Da Vinci’s phenomenal mural, ‘The Last Supper’. Often imitated, never bettered, this masterpiece is carefully preserved, and only one group is allowed to view it at a time. This can make tickets a challenge to acquire, but yours are included in this package, along with special Skip the Line Access – so you’re guaranteed your full 15 minutes with the fresco. Listen as your guide points out the details that earn ‘The Last Supper’ its place in the history books.
After just one day, you’ll find your relationship to Milan forever changed for the better.

Fantastic tour in which to see Milan’s major sights. We took the train in from Venice to do it and so glad we did. Skipping the line to the Duomo and getting access to The Last Supper alone worth the price. Guide gave us a ton of information on the duomo and The Last Supper that we would have never gotten visiting either site on our own. Be forewarned though that there is a ton of walking from the time you see the Duomo until you get in to see The Last Supper. Also, Tour and Duomo website said no shorts above the knees allowed, but I wore a nice pair of golf shorts that reached the top of the knee and had no issue.Dorothee_F

We booked this tour mainly for the Last Supper. There was a lot of walking involved, which should have been announced in description of tour. My husband's ticket was under my name and he was not allowed to enter because they could not find his name. The guide asked me to call the emergency number which I did not have. After the tour was over the guide went again to the ticket office and the mistake was cleared up and he was allowed to enter with another tour, albeit Italian speaking!. We were quite exhausted at that point and it put a bit of a damper on the whole experience.Stephen_D

I loved all the sites but we walked miles on rocky streets. Great leader: Katerina. She was knowledgeable and fun. Could have used a couple of sitting breaks and 2 bathroom breaks in 3 1/2 hours walking.

Do not book with Viator……..lies, lies and more lies. Tour guide did not turn up and they then had the nerve to blame us for apparently not being there. Again, more lies. Now they are refusing to give a refund………the most unprofessional, incompetent company I have ever dealt with.
