Itinerary

Milan Stop 1
See Milan through the eyes of someone who calls it home—uncovering its hidden gems, rich culture, and untold stories with a passionate local by your side. This isn’t just a tour—it’s a journey designed around you, full of authentic moments and unforgettable discoveries. Before your adventure begins, your host will reach out with a short online Personalization Form to craft an itinerary that reflects your interests—whether it’s exploring world-famous landmarks, savoring local flavors, or stumbling upon tucked-away treasures only locals know. Here are some highlights and hidden gems to spark your curiosity:
Pass by
Duomo Di Milano Stop 2
Start at Milan’s iconic cathedral, the Duomo di Milano, an architectural masterpiece and the heart of the city. Your host will share captivating stories about its centuries-old history and hidden details. For a breathtaking city view, you may choose to climb to the rooftop and take in Milan’s stunning skyline.
Pass by
Santa Maria delle Grazie Stop 3
Admire the exterior of this UNESCO-listed church, famously linked to Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper. As tickets to see the painting are usually booked months in advance, entry is not included, and you will not view the artwork during this walking experience. Instead, your host will bring the church’s history and architecture to life from the outside.
Pass by
Naviglio Grande Stop 4
Wander through the charming canal district of Naviglio Grande, where history meets Milan’s vibrant social scene. Stroll along its picturesque waterfront, lined with colorful buildings, independent shops, and lively cafés. With your host, you might discover a hidden wine bar or an artisan workshop, immersing yourself in the neighborhood’s authentic local charm.
Pass by
Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II Stop 5
Step into the grandeur of Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, Italy’s oldest and most elegant shopping arcade. Marvel at its ornate mosaics, soaring glass dome, and luxury boutiques. Don’t forget to spin on the bull mosaic for good luck—a cherished Milanese tradition passed down for generations.
