What you’ll do

Beat the layover blues and make the most of your time in a new city – even if it is only for a few hours. Get out of the airport and into the streets as you join one of our hosts in a personalized experience of Milan tailored to fit your time, budget, and interests. Shake off that travel fatigue and see some of the city's most famous attractions, or simply relax in a park where you can appreciate the city's whimsical architecture from a distance.

Whether you're staying for a night or stopping off for a shorter period, there is plenty to do. From gothic cathedrals to historic canals, iconic museums, and trendy neighborhoods where you could sample the best gelato around - the choice is yours.

No one likes airport food, so you could squeeze in a meal at a local osteria (and everyone knows good food tastes even better with good company), and we’ll still have you back at the airport in time for your next plane. What are you waiting for?

We had a great day with Giulia. She knew very much about Milan but also about other countries. She has travelled a lot so she could easily compare to other countries or moments in history. It was a very nice tour that she had figured out and it all went too quick. She showed us several parts of Milan and we are sure we will be back to enjoy more of this beautiful city. Thank you so much Giulia for a day well spend with one of the best guides we ever met.

Giulia arrived 5 minutes before our meeting time and is a lovely, well educated person. She had figured out what to do in the 3 hours tour and could tell us everything about Milan but as she has travelled a lot she could easily compare to other coutries or situations in history. We have had a great time and she showed as so many different sides of Milan that I am sure we will get back soon to enjoy this beautifull city. Thank you Giulia for a great day!!
