Our guide was knowledgeable. She told us information outside the cathedral as well as inside. It was convenient to skip the long line to get inside with her.

The Duomo is incredible and has so many stories to tell. This is a must see in Milan. Our guide was so knowledgeable and easily communicated the history and facts of the Duomo, along with wonderful stories. Visited on a hot day, but in the morning, still being on the terraces is well worth the heat for spectacular views and a close up of the intricate skulpting of the spires.

The guide was great, gave many details and information. You get to the rooftop, also included the museum. So it's worth the price. And what's great, you skip the lines, so you don't need to wait, like 10min to the church, 10min to the roof. It also saved time. Sadly, we didn't had a chance to wander the church and you enter only once.

This was an amazing tour. Daniel was a very knowledgeable guide & made it so enjoyable. The tour included an elevator to the terrace so made it perfect for those with reduced mobility & meant they didn't miss out on the super views & information on the cathedral.

Seeing the roof top and the second floor was amazing. The inside of the church is also amazing. We had afternoon tickets, 1415, on Sunday. The church closed around 1600. We had crypt tickets but missed it because it closed. We were expected to tour the crypt on our own after the tour. We wish the tour guide would have told us.

Our tour guide was fantastic and we learned so much about the building of the Duomo, the historic significance of the cathedral, the guilded Virgin Mary, and the stories of the Bible depicted in the stain glass windows. It was a very informative tour.

流程通畅无比，导游表述诙谐幽默而又富有知识性，因为我们一行有一位年龄偏大的队员，对米兰大教堂的壮观充满了惊叹和赞赏，一路拍摄耽误了大家的正常行程，导游也是给予了我们充分的理解和宽容，在此对本次活动中我们队员的表现表示歉意，也感谢导游及其他同行人员的宽容表示感谢！
