The Duomo of Milan tells a story of faith and art spanning over six centuries. Construction work on the Duomo of Milan probably began in 1386. Work for the construction of Milan cathedral began in 1386 when the style of Gothic cathedrals had reached its peak.

Our tour guide was Valaria -- and she was awesome! I was really looking forward to this rooftop tour, but the interior of this cathedral was even more amazing. This was just enough, not too long, not too short and Valaria was very personable and even helped take photos of us. One of the most beautiful cathedrals I've ever been to -- much much better than the Vatican tour.
Valeria was awesome! What a great tour and learning experience! We enjoyed the access, tour of the roof top, and some great unknowns inside, thanks.
I had a wonderful tour with Valeria. She was very knowledgeable about the history of, and the people influencing the Duomo and was able to talk about so many aspects of the church that, if wandering around alone, you would totally miss. She has enthusiasm for her role as guide which helped me to appreciate this immense cathedral, 500 years in the making. Highly recommended
Our Duomo tour with terraces access was great. Our tour guide, Laura, did an excellent job of sharing details about the building itself and the church's history. The views were incredible. This tour is for people who aren't afraid of heights and can handle walking up and down several narrow stone steps.
Early entry and informative tour with Andrea. We were the first visitors into the lift and onto the roof. Do d not feel rushed with a group of seven. Grazie
The tour was great! Our tour guide was amazing -friendly, professional, knowledgeable (with so much information about the history), and took great photos.
Great! Straight to the point , got some nice views . Learned the history and go to see the museum…..
Our guide, Andre, was amazing! He is a born and raised Milan citizen who is very passionate and enthusiastic. This was a tremendous value for a fun and informative 2 hour tour, not to mention the breathtaking views atop the Duomo. The spires are like nothing I have ever seen. You won't regret this tour!
Guide Liliana did an excellent job. Will recommend to everyone. Views are excellent. Duomo is a must. Will recommend tour
The tour itself was gorgeous. Our tour guide, Andrea (I'm 99% sure that was his name), was wonderful. My only complaint is that Trip Advisor changed the time of the tour, and did a terrible job of informing us. I'm glad it worked out that I was still able to go, but it could have worked out differently. I wish I could give a 1 star review for Trip Advisor, but a 5 star review for the tour and tour guide.
Our tour guide,Valaria, was amazing. She is so friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable. She made sure my husband, who can’t climb stairs was able to take the elevator back down and made sure she found him outside after the roof portion of the tour was over. She pointed out many interesting secrets of the Duomo. I highly recommend this tour!
Our tour guide, Valaria was amazing! She was so friendly, accommodating and extremely knowledgeable.
Great tour! Super informative and it moved at the perfect pace. Definitely worth it!! Skipping the line and taking the elevator is a must. This tour has it all.
Great experience done this cathedral with family before but learned and saw so much more with the tour guide. Would recommend for two or more
It’s a stunning building; strongly recommend visiting the rooftop as the detail in the scuplture id incredible and had to be seen to be believed. Please do check the dress code for visiting the inside of the Duomo. It’s very strict.
Our tour was exceptional. Our tour guide Valeria was personable, helpful and knowledgeable. We learned so much about the Duomo’s history and special features that we wouldn’t have known had we just walked around by ourselves. Recommend!
This was a great tour of the cathedral, it was well paced and took in the beautiful views outside and inside the cathedral. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history and architecture of the building and its religious significance to the Roman church. I loved hearing about the different influences for the building
Excellent tour. Just the right amount of time. Very knowledgeable guide and the radios worked great. Highly recommend
The views were incredible! Our tour guide Sara was fantastic and shared so much knowledge with us. I had an amazing time, and would recommend!!!
I was very pleased with the tour! Our guide was very accommodating to make sure we all saw everything that we were interested in. He was knowledgeable and welcoming. The headsets allowed us to learn while walking around and exploring. Everything went very smoothly and this was definitely worth it to book a tour and not have to deal with lines!
Excellent tour of Duomo di Milano, despite the appalling rain we copped on the day, which stopped us hanging out on the roof for too long. Can't win the weather lottery every day, but our guide was experienced, knowledgeable and pleasant. Duomo itself was absolutely incredible. A must see, and definitely worth doing a guided tour so you know what you're looking at.
Daniel and Luca were the perfect guide and driver respectfully. An amazing experience, first with a short stop in Como, seeing the lake for the 1st time was breathtaking, and it only got better once we'd left Como and started our journey around the winding roads of Lake Como. I short boat risde over to Bellagio for a 2hr stop over (bit long IMO) followed by a longer river cruise Daniel was very good in pointing out the celebrations hot spots and also the history of the lake and surrounding areas. After a short walk back to coach, it was then off tothe Lugano Switzerland, pleasant journey again, on arrival we had a bit free time of an hour or so, which was ample to experience the local sights and shops. All in all a very enjoyable, educational and pleasant day.
We had an excellent time. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend the tour. Accessing the top of the Duomo was a highlight!
Very nice visit of the Duomo of Milan starting with the splendid terrace and the golden virgin then the interior with its stained glass windows and works of art.The excellent explanations of our guide Natasha about the church and the city of Milan were very appreciated. Thanks again!
