About this journey
The fashion capital, walked properly.
A Milan city tour is the most rewarding way to discover Italy’s most modern and elegant city — the capital of fashion, design, finance and one of Italy’s most fascinating cultural destinations. Walk through the historic centre and meet the icons that make Milan an essential stop on any Italian journey.
Be enchanted by the imposing Duomo of Milan, one of the largest and most beautiful Gothic cathedrals in the world — a marvel of marble that took six centuries to complete. Walk through the elegant Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, Italy’s first shopping mall and still its most beautiful. See La Scala, the world’s most famous opera house, and the Castello Sforzesco, the imposing Renaissance castle that ruled Milan for centuries.
Beyond the icons, discover the neighbourhoods that make Milan a living, working Italian city — the Brera artistic district, the Quadrilatero della Moda (fashion quarter), and the corners where the Milanese still meet for aperitivo. A walk that combines history, art, fashion and the pulse of modern Italy.
