Cristina was a wonderful tour guide. The whole family enjoyed the tour. She was able to share tidbits and details that were interesting to each of us on an individual level. We loved the added bonus of being shown best places for local foods, gelato, and other shops/buys.

Milan highlights city tour
Our tour with Francesca was great. She is very knowledgable about the history of Italy and Milan in particular. We enjoyed touring the historical sites but also walking through the streets, being educated about the architecture and culture. We had some interesting and fun conversations along the way. Highly recommend a tour with Francesca.
