Description:
There’s more to Milan than meets the eye. Discover the best of Milan’s history, art and architecture on this small-group tour with special access to the Duomo rooftop, an exploration of Sforza Castle and a special visit to the secret bone chapel.
Your tour starts with a visit to Castel Sforzesco. Your expert guide gives you a brief history of the Sforza family before bringing you to the Castle Museum. As patrons of Michelangelo, the Sforzas owned his last masterpiece, the Pietà Rondanini. You also get the opportunity to see their huge collection of art, furniture, musical instruments, and armory, which came in handy when King Louis XII of France attacked the city.
Enjoy a walking tour of the Castle grounds before moving onto the Brera district, Milan’s artistic heart. Along the way your guide points out charming architecture such as the famous La Scala theater and the luxury shopping parade of Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. Take a detour to see a special site, not normally visited on tours – a bone chapel, carefully decorated with a mix of charming frescoes and human remains.
Probably Milan’s most impressive architecture is the Duomo, or Milan Cathedral. Your guide teaches you how it took almost 600 years to complete this incredible gothic structure, before the highlight of your tour. Take an elevator to the top and walk on the rooftop of the Duomo, admiring its incredible spires and sculptures up close and stunning views over Milan.
