“The tour of La Scala and the guide were excellent. The guide for the Cathedral tour was bubbly and communicated well but seemed to be far more interested in promoting Milan over other wonderful places in Europe rather than telling us about the Cathedral - how it was built, styles of building within the Cathedral, exterior features etc. we received some interesting facts and stories but they were all a bit disconnected. Tour was ok but could easily have been do much better. We also had to wait around for group members to turn up and then they ended up not joining us because the women didn’t have cover for…”

“Lots of things to see. Very interesting for adults and older children. Disappointing for 10 years and under because not interactive enough. I would not recommend it for them. No restaurant (under renovation?) only vending machines. Descriptions in Italian and English only. Leonardo da Vinci section (museum name...) not very large and nothing interactive for younger children. Great experience for engineering and science enthusiasts.Auto-translated”
