Description

A fully organized ENTIRE DAY IN MILAN, that includes The Last Supper visit, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci, Duomo Cathedral visit, and other less-known fabulous sites!

Our legally licensed English speaking Tour Guide will take you on a journey through History, from the imposing Sforza Castle, home of intrigues and one of the milanese’s most beloved placed, to the Gothic period (Duomo cathedral). From a surprising optical illusion created by a Renaissance genius, Donato Bramante (church of Santa Maria presso San Satiro) to the ‘Sistine chapel of Milan’ (San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore) and the provocative contemporary art, standing in front of “the Finger”, the sculpture by Maurizio Cattelan (one of the most successful Italian contemporary artists).

You will cross the majestic glass-roofed Vittorio Emanuele II Gallery, also known as the “living room” of Milan, to arrive in front of the renowned La Scala Opera Theatre and dream of operas and ballets.

More importantly, you will not miss the chance to admire the worldwide famous Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper, a mix of art, history and mystery that only the greatest Genius of the Renaissance could has given to us.
