Hi, I’m Alex
Hi, I’m Alex
I’ve lived in Milan for 2 years
I speak English, Spanish, Italian and some French
I am a Tour Leader
Ciao! I'm Alessandro, a local host with a lifelong passion for Milan’s wonders. Growing up with stories from my father, who was born here, I was drawn to the heart of the city—from the iconic Cathedral and Castello Sforzesco to lesser-known gems like Brera and Navigli. I love wandering Milan’s streets, discovering every hidden corner, and stepping into historical pubs to connect with people who share my curiosity for this city. Milan has something happening every day, from cultural events to vibrant nightlife, and I know where to go for both! Whether it’s a stroll through 5 vie, exploring the Vertical gardens in Porta Nuova, or finding the best places for a night out, I’m here to show you Milan like a local. If you’re ready to dive into Milan's culture and explore its secrets, let’s make it a memorable adventure together!
