"Omar is a knowledgeable and experienced guide who understood what we wanted and fed our minds, hearts, and souls. He shared the philosophy and poetry of the city he loves and helped us to love it too. Now we even appreciate the chaos of the trolley car cables as a symbol of Milan as a city of connections. And if you want something completely different, we have no doubt that Omar can give it to you!"
"Omar's\" Highlights and Hidden Gems of Milan \" was the perfect introduction to the city . HIs great knowledge of the city 's history, art and architecture was extremely useful to understand Milan's major attractions. A wonderful experience , we woud highly recommend one of Omar's tours . "

Highly recommended! "

"We had a really good experience with Isa. We discovered places in Milan that we would have not gone to by ourselves and she was able to engage our 2 boys with her treasure hunt and wonderful stop for a snack. The stories we shared made Milan much more lovely and memorable."
"From the moment we met Omar, we felt like we had known him for yours. Omar’s friendly demeanor and kind ways were immediately comforting to us. The knowledge of the city, culture, and most importantly , the hidden gems were so captivating. He was the best tour guide we ever had and would recommend him with out reservation."
