Top rated guide and service - Victor …. Fantastic guide …. Spent nearly 3 hours exploring the Duomo , inside and out and to the top. Took the time to explain the early beginnings of construction and had iPad pictures to show exposed sections during repairs and renovations.

Fabulous customized 6 hour tour skipping lines with Ester! - We had a private customized tour of the Duomo with rooftop access, a gelato tasting, the castle, and then skip the line access to the last supper. We were lucky enough to have Ester as our guide. She was amazing, friendly, hilarious, was so knowledgeable of all the attractions, and pointed out things that we would have never known by exploring the city ourselves. We wish we had more time with her so we could see and learn more of beautiful Milan!!!

Phenomenal Customized Private Tour of Milan! - I had a group of 15 people and we had a private tour of the Duomo, Sforza Castle, Last Supper and Gelato tasting. This was a custom tour for 4 hours and it was incredibly easy to coordinate this tour with Marco from Momento Italy prior to my visit. It was very easy to meet up with Ester (our tour guide) and as soon as we met her, we knew that we didn't have a tour guide, but we had a talented storyteller. Ester was professional, knowledgable and joyful the entire time. She was not only telling us about the history, but also gave us her personal experiences as well. We could not have asked for a better guide, we felt like she was part of our family showing us around Milan. If I could give more than a 5 star rating, I would! Don't hesitate to book with Momento and if you can, request Ester as your guide!

BellÃsimo - We had an absolutely amazing time. The tour guide was very flexible and we were able to go at our own pace, see what we wanted to see and call it a day when we were tired. She was very knowledgeable and we really learnt a great deal about the history of Milan. Not to mention the delicious pizza restaurant we went to!

Do you want a top class tour experience? This is it. - Tiziana was so great. She was knowledgeable and personable, and made you feel like you were getting a true insider’s look at the Duomo. She walked us through the story and the creation of the Duomo, the architectural significance of the building’s features, and explained it’s importance in the religious, political, and historical landscape of Milan and Italy as a whole. Would highly recommend the tour, it was well worth it for us.
