Good city tours fill up fast in Milan, and the best ones fill up first. Ranked below are the 15 worth your time, with current prices and what sets each apart, so you can book before the calendar closes.
Open-top hop-on hop-off bus with 4 Milan loops and multilingual audio, from Duomo to Castello. Flexible sightseeing for days.
“Their customer service was fabulous considering how hectic it can be around the Duomo square.”
A paperless YesMilanoPass for Duomo access, top museums, and unlimited public transport across central Milan for 1–3 days.
“I loved the value for the money. We used the pass for as many of the attractions as we could. My only concern or complaint was the QR codes for the transportation. While I understand one has to scan in and out, refreshing the code for each scan was not easy and held up the lines. If the QR code can be assigned for each customer and kept for the duration of the pass, that would be better than refreshing each on each ride/turnstile use.”
Budget Terravision transfer from central Milan to Bergamo Airport in about 1 hour. Paper ticket, WiFi, clear pickup points.
“coach was packed not a spare seat and very hot, got us to the airport in plenty of time, be aware to give yourself plenty of time as the bus seemed to wait until all seats were taken to leave for airport, this could take a while, anyone left behind could find themselves with a good 30 to 45 minute wait as we sat on the bus for well over half an hr, saying that cheap enough and value for money.”
The Milan Pass City Card bundles 48-hour transit, hop-on bus options, and skip-the-line museum entries for efficient value in Milan.
“It was good and nice to have everything in one place. I see only two disadvantages: I needed to pick up the pass by myself in the city and in every place I needed to change it to the ticket. The second thing wasn't as annoying as it was in March but in the tourist season, it can be frustrating to stand in the queue. Besides that, it was a good deal and I don't regret it.”
Milan to Venice in one long day: guided St Mark’s walk, lagoon boat ride, and free time to wander. Great value, big schedule.
“Wish it could have been a little longer .. but wow enjoyed it thoroughly.”
Skip lines for Leonardo’s Last Supper and the Duomo, then stroll Brera, Sforza Castle, La Scala and Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II.
“Do This!! I was in Milan for 2 nights at the end of my holiday. I booked this walking tour before I left and it was excellent! Tour guide Elizabeth was a walking encyclopedia. She gave us so much information, including different parts of the city to visit after the tour. It was a warm day and she tried to keep us comfortable by finding shady spots to stand under while she talked to us. She walked at a gentle pace. The things we saw were amazing! The Last Supper and the Duomo are an absolute must! Thank you Elizabeth. I would do it again!”

“The guide was great and had a wealth of knowledge and kept up a steady stream of talking throughout the tour. We visited all the places and kept going at a good pace. The only problem was that it was hard to hear sometimes because it was so crowded, the mic was not that good and the guide spoke softly.”
A 2-hour English guided walk through Milan’s top squares and streets, from Castello Sforzesco to Duomo, in a small group.
