You’ll meet our professional English-speaking guide in the prearranged meeting-point, which can be changed according to guests requirements:

You will start the tour with the Visit of the Duomo (external visit). The high marble tower peaks represent the most famous religious and architectural monument of the city. The dimensions of the third large (108 m high, 158 meters long) Christian church in the world are simply breathtaking. It consists of various styles, so the doors are from the 17th Century, the central loggia from the late 18th Century and the three main windows by Carlo Amati from the early 19th Century.
Many visitors left speechless at the sight of the huge interior of the cathedral: The impressive columns, vaults and streamlined arches.

You’ll move to the Sforzesco Castle (internal visit), one of the most famous monuments in Milano. In the last years it had to go through a long historical change - demolished, then rebuilt several times, renovated and beautified. The large castle is linked to the many changes and events that the city has experienced in the past centuries. At the beginning it was a palace of power in the hands of the dukes and the foreign domination. But at the beginning of the 20th Century, the castle got a unique role and became a place of culture. The castle was named after Francesco Sforza, who transformed it to a residence Dukes in 1450. Today's remnants of the old Sforza Castle are just a part of the original building, which was restored by the Sforza family after the Milanese had destroyed the Visconti Palace in 1447.
The Museum of the Castello Sforzesco includes collections of famous painters, numerous sculptures, Exhibitions of ancient art and antique weapons collections, the ceiling frescoes painted by Leonardo in the "Sala delle Asse." and many more.

You’ll finish the tour by visiting the famous Last supper (internal visit). The masterpiece has emerged towards the end of the 15th Century and shows in an impressive manner the moment, in which Jesus announces to his disciples that one of them will betray him.
