In this comprehensive 3-hour journey, we ensure you a rich, tailor-made experience that caters exclusively to your interests.

Discovering the Grandeur of Milan’s Duomo

No visit to Milan would be complete without setting foot in the Duomo, the largest cathedral in Italy and the fourth largest in the world. Our pre-booked, skip-the-line tickets offer you immediate access to this grandiose structure.

Take the lift to the rooftop and marvel at a panoramic 360-degree view of Milan’s skyline. Notice how the city’s buildings bow in reverence to the Duomo, thanks to a 1930s law prohibiting structures taller than the cathedral’s highest point.

Accompanied by your personal guide, discover the lesser-known archeological sites beneath the Duomo and explore the museum to complete your immersive experience.
