The medieval Milan, with the amazing Basilica di Sant’ Ambrogio, or the Renaissance city highlights such as the Church of San Satiro or San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore could be part of your custom made tour
  • if you love contemporary and wish to really feel the vibe of today’s Milan, go for an architectural tour and explore the newest city districts, such as Porta Nuova or City Life
