# Milan Semi Private Tour with Duomo Skip-the-Line & Rooftop

**Guidekin's take:** A group capped at ten that walks from Sforza Castle through Parco Sempione and Brera to La Scala and ends inside the Duomo and on its rooftop terraces, with entry included, plus a fully private tier. Food and drinks are extra, and the cathedral asks for appropriate clothing and silence inside. 4.98 from 55 reviews at €125 per person.
