Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"he tour was fascinating, and Caterina knew exactly how to tailor it to our group — in pace, content, and atmosphere. She’s warm, funny, and highly knowledgeable, sharing great insights, useful tips, and even a wonderful recommendation for a small local restaurant we would never have found on our own. Thank you for an unforgettable experience in Milan!"
"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."
"Sara is a very friendly, sympathic guide with excellent knowledge of the city and new hotspots. Due to her history with being a model she’s highly qualified and informed in Milano’s fashion scene. I really enjoyed our walk, all the tips and different sites of this wonderful part of Milano."

"Great tour, well paced, excellent knowledge of Milan/Italy. "
"Could not have been more pleased. "
"We had the good fortune of doing a highlights tour of Milan with Francesca. She was a pleasure to work with before the tour. Promptly answered questions and was great about setting good expectations beforehand. She met us in the lobby of our hotel which was close to The Duomo. It made for a great start to our time together. We appreciated her knowledge and the fact that she took her time explaining info esp when there were questions or we wanted something clarified. She also shared some tidbits with us which prompted us to go back to certain stores and areas to do some more shopping and dining. Areas that we wouldn’t have ventured to on or own. All in all our 3 hours went quickly and we thought it was definitely money well spent! "
"Salvatore was very good. We would request him again. The tour was exactly as described. Excellent dry sense of humor."
"Francesca was a tremendous guide. We started our tour at the Duomo where Francesca breathed life into the intricacies of this historic and blessed structure. Afterwards we had an espresso at a newly restored Campari bar with beautiful mosaics. We proceeded to the Galleria with even more ancient works of art on the edifice and the floors. From there we walked past La Scala and into the fabulous Brera neighborhood. I can’t imagine that I would be able to describe how beautiful it was without writing a large travel book. Scuola and Libraries, beautiful Botanic Gardens and incredible wine bars and shops to name a few. We ended our tour at the Castle and before she left, she recommended the most incredible restaurant that only locals would patronize. Thank you Francesca. "
"Had a great afternoon learning about Milan & its history. Caterina was an amazing guide- with a local perspective - thanks for all your suggestions on where to shop & eat. Highly recommend !!"
