This was a very good tour with Ashi. It was a nice mix of history, random facts about Milan and a nice stop off for a coffee at one of the oldest cafes in Milan. Altogether it was very enjoyable, Ashi had loads of information and we would recommend this tour.

Ashani was an amazing guide and showed me and my husband all around Milan! We stopped at a beautiful coffee shop in between, appreciating all of our surroundings ! Ashani explained the value of each landmark and filled us in on the history ! I would recommend this tour to anybody.
Ashi was very likeable, knowledgeable and easy to understand.
Perfect 2 hour tour of Milan. Our guide was great! Perfect amount of time!
Ashani was amazing as a tour guide. Her familiarity with Milan, her excellent English and her warm personality made the experience an outstanding one. We walked the city, learning so much about the history and culture of Milan. She pointed out places we might chose to visit later and was patient with the pace of our jet lagged bodies as she selected an excellent coffee shop as a brief stop along the way. I would highly recommend you request Ashani as a guide for a valuable time in Milan.
Ashi was great , good knowledge, friendly, offered some suggestions for food and wine as well as doing the walking tour.
Ashi was delightful- great energy, very friendly and knowledgeable, despite not being native to the city.
Delightful tour guide. Our route was full of many beautiful and interesting sites. Would recommend!!
As hi did a wonderful job showing my wife and I the highlights of Milan.
If you’re looking to book this tour, I would ask the operator for more detailed instructions on the meeting point. I arrived at the meeting point 20 minutes early but could not find any individual or group for a tour, I wandered aimlessly around the entire building/courtyard before leaving 20 minutes after my tour was meant to start. I will say, the tour provided a rough route when I requested a refund, which I then followed myself throughout the afternoon with some podcasts. That was a nice touch and made me feel less disappointed.
We had a great walking tour in Milan with our guide Ashi. She took us around many of the major sights and also added some really nice local stops, including a cozy coffee shop and a charming vintage bag store. Ashi was very knowledgeable, engaging, and fun throughout the tour. She shared interesting insights about the city and kept the experience relaxed and enjoyable. Overall, it was a wonderful way to explore Milan and we would definitely recommend this tour
We had a wonderful experience on the Milan Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems with our guide, Ashi. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the city’s history come alive with fascinating stories and local insights. The tour was the perfect mix of famous landmarks and hidden spots that I would never have discovered on my own. Ashi was attentive to us, answered all our questions, and created a fun and engaging atmosphere throughout the tour. Her passion for Milan truly shines through. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Milan and looking for an authentic and memorable experience.
Ashi did a wonderful job introducing us to Milan- its history, food, culture and shopping. Would highly recommend - she is very engaging and adjusts, when possible, to the preferences of each group.
A short walking tour with some hi lights that will give you a first taste of Milan has to offer. Ashi was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide who made the tour very easy. Her communication made the meet up seamless and recommendations on future activities very useful
Great for solo travellers. Friendly, welcoming and informative guide. Great value and great atmosphere.
We enjoyed our walking tour with Ashi our guide. She was friendly and gave us some good tips for the remainder of our trip
The house Ashi was so friendly and knowledgeable. She let us take our time with shopping and pictures and answered all of our questions. I highly recommend her as your guide!
While our guide was kind and lovely, her knowledge was a little limited. We passed several statues of memorials written in Italian which she could not translate. We got a very brief 2-3 sentence explanation of each site we saw. Just wasn't as expected especially for the cost.
Exploring Milan was a wonderful experience. My partner and I joined this tour, and with our guide and two other couples, we walked through the city center. Our favorite spot was the galery, where you can find shops from some of the world's most exclusive clothing brands. After an hour in the center, we went into the Brera district, which is a bit quieter than the center and has places we wouldn't have discovered without the tour.
I totally recommend this tour in Milan if you wanna walk through the city center and learn about the history of major landmarks like the Cathedral and the galery Vittorio Emanuele. These galleries are so beautiful, and walking through them without knowing anything about their history would have been quite disappointing. We had an excellent guide who passionately shared the stories of each place we visited.
I loved this tour because it combined the historic center with the Brara district, which is not only Milan's most bohemian neighborhood but also one of its most expensive and beautiful. This tour was a perfect balance of history, architecture, and great recommendations for shopping and dining.
Our guide in Milan was so much fun. It felt like a friend was showing us around her city. My favorite spots were the galleries near the cathedral and the beautiful palace.
I really enjoyed this tour of Milan and the walk through Brera district. This tour was full of fascinating information and our guide made sure we saw the best spots in this wonderful city. I really recommend this tour for any solo traveler like me walking to explore Milan by foot.
We went on this tour with some friends, and it was the perfect way to get to know and learn about Milan on our first time here. Milan's city center is perfect for walking, so we had no trouble getting around. Our guide was very knowledgeable and fun, which made the tour even more enjoyable.
Our guide Chloe showed us how beautiful Milan can be in just a couple of hours. I think Milan shouldn't only be famous for fashion, but also for its architecture. The cathedral and the galleries left us in awe of their beauty. Highly recommended this walking tour!
Very informative tour, interesting sights, excellent tour guide! It's a nice way to get to know the city. Thanks you for the tour!
Chloe was our guide, and with her, we learned a lot about this beautiful city. Milan isn't just about fashion, Milan is also about architecture. We were able to see various buildings, like the Milan Cathedral and the famous galleries. Milan's beautiful center makes it a must-see in Italy.
We have done a number of similar tours in other cities, so we have some fair comparisons. We do have several comments to make which we hope you will respond to and action. 1. Matteo was unprofessionally dressed, very scruffy, had no official badge/lanyard or other identification. 2. His English and speech was quite poor which made it difficult to follow his information/descriptions. 3. The tour did not follow the full described route and timings. E.g. we only saw the Castello Sforzesco from a distance briefly (as per other reviews). Description was 20 mins. 4. It was not appropriate that he took us into a supermarket to try and persuade us to buy beer. No one wanted nor asked for this. This was clearly self motivated. 5. The tour ended by the canals around 4.30pm and we were not guided back to the Duomo, the stated end point. 6. Latterly there were lots of restaurant and bar suggestions - these were not asked for or anticipated by any of the tour members. Our first negative impressions of Matteo were unfortunately borne out as the tour progressed. We do not feel he is a suitable tour guide for all the above reasons, and is not a good representative for your company. We await your response and hope these comments are helpful. Ian & Janet Dixon
The walk was a little over 2 hours rather than the advertised 3 hours. The guide lost the interest of most of the group possibly because of his strong accent and rush to finish early . He then got frustrated and rude. We did not visit all the places listed in the description and some we saw from a distance eg that’s the castle down there with only brief explanation. The last 30 minutes then became recommendations on where to eat, which I was neither interested in or part of the advertised walk. I thought a small group tour would be better than large free tour but regret this decision. I have asked for a 50% refund as I did find out a bit about Milan but nearly 3 weeks later have heard nothing back.
Unfortunately my tour had beeb rescheduled and I ended up with a different itinerary than what was described.
Where to begin? We signed up for this 2 hour tour and was very surprised when after 1.5 hours we stopped for a 25 minute break at a bar. At the 3 hour mark half of us walked off of the tour. After I responded to a text from the operator he informed me that the tour is actually 3 hours so beware, the trip advisor page still lists it at 2 hours. That was the highlight. The tour guide mumbled in very heavily accented english, gave very descriptive explanations in the churches but little else. The "20 minute stop" at the Sforzesco Castle was in reality a mention and a pointing from about 3 blocks away. Brera, still don't know if we were ever there. It felt as if we wandered aimlessly. I could go on forever complaining about this tour. Oh yeah, we made a second stop at a bar so that the guide could get his second Aperol Spritz. I would avoid this tour at all cost. I have written 400 reviews and have never recommended this before.
Information given said 2 hour tour but it was 3 hours and 2 couples left early. Tour guide, Mateo very sweet but did NOT speak English well enough to be understood. So we went to many places but have no idea what significance or history it had.
Our guide Chloe was a pleasure to help introduce us to the beautiful city of Milan - punctual, knowledgeable & humerous😎

I had an amazing time on this tour of Milan! One of the highlights was visiting the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. Our guide shared the story behind its stunning architecture and the luxury shops lining its halls, it’s so much more than just a shopping spot! Walking through those grand arches, with all the ornate details and the glass dome overhead, was breathtaking.
Our first time in Italy, and this walking tour in Milan was the perfect start! We got to see so many iconic spots, like the Duomo and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, with a guide who shared fascinating stories. It felt incredible to be surrounded by such stunning architecture, and we loved learning about Milan’s role in fashion and design.
This walking tour in Milan was an amazing experience! It was a fantastic way to explore the city. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many interesting insights about the landmarks, especially the stunning Duomo and the vibrant streets of the fashion district. I loved the small group atmosphere, which made it easy to ask questions and engage with everyone.
Very engaged guide who had great knowledge of Milan. Present and good at English so that one could understand what was said. Can absolutely be recommended.
Great! Suzanne was top-notch and knew how to interest my teenage daughter by talking about the city, the gastronomy, and the arts. Thank you very much Suzanna!
There is a notice to change the collection time and location before the trip, there is a question whether the tour attractions are the same, the answer is the same, but the actual tour location is different from the attractions when purchasing online tickets.
Walking through Milan! I had a great time on this walking tour of Milan! We visited the Duomo and although we didn't go up to the roof, seeing it up close was amazing. Our guide had so many interesting stories about the story and little details that you would usually miss just by going through there. We also strolled through some quieter places that looked like hidden treasures. It was a fun and relaxed way to get to know the city. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting!
