The tour was great, if you like history. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and helpful. Her English was very strong - no problems communicating. And, of course, the site were fantastic. It would be great to combine this with 30 minutes inside the Duomo.

Our guide, Vera, gave us a fantastic city tour tailored to our interests and requests. For example, we skipped the cathedral because we'd planned to do that later in the day, but spent lots more time in the museum at LaScala. She was very knowledgeable and a delightful guide... even giving us tips on areas to go for lunch away from the tourists! Well worth the money.
