Our tour guide, “Zse”, was amazing - extremely personable, knowledgable, and with great historical perspective! I would not hesitate to book this tour. This was my third time visiting Milan and, after the tour, I have a whole new perspective on this city. I was not interested, necessarily, in fashion, however, I found the tour and content fascinating! If you think Milan is bland and nothing special, you need to experience this excursion to be exposed to the other side of Milan!Sara was a fantastic tour guide! She tailored our time together to what I was interested in seeing and took me to some fantastic local artisans where I bought some awesome boots and a beautiful leather handbag, both made by Milanese designers/store owners. By far the highlight of my time in Milan!

We had anticipated a lot from the tour, aiming to delve into Italian fashion history and gain insights into local designers. However, our experience primarily consisted of strolling through various "AlltheSameEverywhere" designer stores, a slightly underwhelming vintage store, and a handful of mid-range Milanese shops. The highlight of the tour turned out to be a leisurely walk through different areas of Milan, an aspect easily replicable using Google Maps.Interesting tour but wish it had something entertaining and not only see stores from outside, see some people actually working or something like that
