Milan's Cathedral (Duomo in Italian) is Italy's largest church and one of the most uniquely beautiful.

The cathedral took nearly six centuries to complete and is a masterpiece in Gothic architecture. After exploring this incredible building, we will then visit some of the other iconic sites of the city such as the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II which started a new fashion in Italian architecture and is also home to the bar where the famous Campari first began.
We will stop here for a taste of the famous bitter drink as your guide explains to you how this drink became a staple of Milan's culture and was a favorite tipple of King Umberto I. After tasting the famous Campari, you'll realize why Milan is the capital of the aperitivo.

We got caught in Milan traffic and were late for our tour. We were super stressed but our guide Larissa calmed us right down with her warm welcome. We had an amazing tour of the Duomo. She showed us her favorite shopping/food spots and was a wealth of knowledge … Simply loved this tour with Larissa!
Great day in Milan
