There are numerous things to do in Milan today. From the marvelous Duomo to beautiful museums, fancy galleries or stunning monuments, explore Milan today for an unforgettable experience. Below you can find exactly what to do in Milan today to have a memorable trip. Milan Cathedral If you have time for one thing to do today in Milan explore the Duomo. It is the largest Gothic complex in Italy, and it took about 500 years to build. Spot all the details both inside and outside. There are 2300 statues depicting religious figures and stories from the bible all around the exterior. Sky-high marble columns, stunning stained glass windows, and numerous paintings and statues make the interior as magnificent as the exterior. You can also access the roof and enjoy the views of the city. Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II Step into the glamorous world of fashion in Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. Even if you don’t want to shop it’s still worth a visit for the amazing 19th-century belle epoque architecture. High-end Italian designers, bookstores, restaurants and cafes. The beautiful paintings and detailed floor tiles are definitely worth a quick visit. Castello Sforzesco It might seem like it is only a landmark, but it’s the house of many museums and galleries. A former residence of Milan’s most powerful rulers, it houses the Pinacoteca, the Furniture Collection, the Museum of Decorative Arts, the Egyptian Museum and many more. Check out the Oreficerie to explore the largest collection of musical instruments in Europe. Museo della Pieta Rondanini is also a must, housing Michelangelo’s last masterpiece, The Pieta Rondanini. Monumental Cemetery Greek temples, ornate obelisks, and massive statues, make this cemetery a must-see landmark in Milan. It’s not as spooky as you’d think, and the architecture will convince you of that. You could even say it’s an outdoor museum. Some of the areas were reserved for the rich and famous, and their tombs became works of art. Look for the bronze recreation of the “Last Supper”, a site that belonged to the Campari family.

Good overview of Milan
Francesca is an excellent guide and is hugely knowledgable about history, politics and the history of art. We covered a lot of ground in our three hours with her both literally and metaphorically (lots of questions asked and answered). She gave us a fantastic recommendation for lunch in Brera allowing us to avoid tourist restaurants.

Perfect day
Francesca was an excellent communicator from the start, answering all my messages and requests very promptly. She met me at the exact time and location that I requested. She is very knowledgeable about the history of Milan and took me to many points of interest, hidden museums and churches that I would’ve missed. She also informed me about many cultural aspects of Milan including the food and fashion scene. Very enjoyable 3 hours. Efficient crash course on Milan, since I had very limited time

Great information in an interesting way.
We asked Salvatore to plan a unique tour because we have been to Milan a number of times and we wanted to visit new places. Salvatore achieved that goal perfectly. The 4 hour tour flew by ( and normally I get bored easily). He showed us the past, present and the future of Milan, including some very helpful information* along the way. It never once felt like he was reading a script either. * He explained how to use the subway and what to do if our ticket didn't work. The very next day we put both parts of that vital information to use. I would highly recommend any tour with him.
