MILAN ICONS & NAVIGLI
Cathedral Grandeur, Renaissance Genius, and Canals by Night
Today, join an expert guide for a comprehensive introduction to this grand city. Begin in the Duomo district, where Milan’s most iconic views gather in one unforgettable setting. The cathedral is a masterpiece of Gothic ambition, centuries in the making, its spires and statues rising like a marble forest above the grand piazza. Nearby, elegant arcades and refined streets reveal the city’s long relationship with craftsmanship and luxury. Explore the stunning Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, the opera house Teatro alla Scala, the Sforza Castle, and the lovely Brera district.
In the afternoon, experience The Last Supper, Leonardo da Vinci’s celebrated mural, fragile, powerful, and quietly moving in person. With context, the work becomes even more extraordinary, the innovation of its composition, the intensity of expression, and the reason it changed art history.
Later, shift into a softer Milan in the Navigli district, where canals trace the city’s older commercial lifelines. The atmosphere here is effortlessly social, perfect for strolling hand in hand, lingering waterside, and letting the evening unfold in a way that feels distinctly Milanese.
