It was our first introduction to Milan and was perfect

We met our guide at 3pm for a three hour tour. She was delightful, extremely knowledgeable as well as very pretty. You could tell she really enjoys her job. started at the Duomo, then La Scala, then fashion tour of the fashion district. Stopped for a glass of wine and coffee. She took us at our own pace which is exactly what we wanted. A great experience.
