  • Hello, J'étais un peu en retard à cause du marathon de Milan et la guide m'a appeler afin d'être sûre que je venais et ensuite m'a expliqué comment les rejoindre. Elle parle très bien français et donne les détails que l'on désirent lorsque l'on réserve un guide. Belle expérience

  • The Tour de la Scala was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The tour began exactly on time, which I really appreciated as it showed great organization and respect for visitors’ schedules. Our guide was very engaging and knowledgeable. He shared many fascinating historical facts not only about the building itself but also about the famous artists who have performed at La Scala throughout its history. The way he told the stories made the history come alive and kept the whole group interested the entire time. Overall, it was a very enjoyable and enriching experience. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Milan who wants to learn more about the history and cultural importance of La Scala.
