Kiara was incredible! Her personality, humour and knowledge was everything needed to make every minute of the tour captivating. She was personal, fun and a pleasure to meet in Milan. Thank you so much!

Ride up, walk down...

Unverified R., 28 February 2025

You do get a quick lift to the roof, but the descent is by foot.. narrow, windy, and well over 300 steps.
