Milan is more than just a place for fashionistas or football fans – there's a historic side to the city beyond its cool, cosmopolitan and chic exterior. And this tour does just that – you'll see the best and most impressive side of Milan, including the Duomo and Sforza Castle.

You'll travel from Lake Maggiore to the bright lights of Milan, where a day of sightseeing and exploring awaits. Kick off your guided tour of the city at the Monumental Cemetery, home to the mausoleum of the Campari family. Then it's on to Sforza Castle, which houses major works of art.

To end the tour, you'll pass by the spectacular cathedral, the Duomo, and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele shopping arcade. You'll find yourself looking up at its iron-and-glass roof more than the shops. Afterwards, you'll have free time – either make your way to the La Scala opera house museum or indulge in some window shopping in the fashion capital of Italy.
