Hello! I am Paola, a licensed and officially authorized tour guide in Milan, born and raised in the city. With a strong background in history and art, I design private cultural and culinary tours for travelers who value knowledge, authenticity, and thoughtful experiences. My tours reveal Milan’s layered identity: a modern, dynamic city with a refined and discreet historical core. I guide guests through historic streets and alleys, churches and basilicas, art galleries, canals, and lesser-known corners, combining solid historical context with local insight and carefully chosen anecdotes. Particular attention is given to the Renaissance period and to Leonardo da Vinci, who considered Milan a central place for his life and work. Alongside cultural itineraries, I also offer private food tours, where cuisine becomes a way to understand tradition, lifestyle, and daily life. My experiences are designed for culturally curious, well-traveled international guests seeking depth rather than spectacle. Please note that I can easily arrange transportation for every tour, if you need and it's not yet included. I am a licensed tour leader since 1995. I am a licensed tourist guide since 2010. I studied languages, arts and history. I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Milan tour

Discover Milan during the most enchanting hours of the day through a private sunset walking tour led by a licensed local guide. Perfect during the warmer months, this experience offers a pleasant way to explore the city while escaping the afternoon summer heat. As daylight gradually gives way to evening elegance, you will walk through Milan's historic center and admire its most iconic landmarks from a unique perspective. The tour includes Duomo Square, where the magnificent Gothic Cathedral glows in the golden light of sunset, the elegant Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, and the world-famous La Scala Opera House. You will also discover Sforza Castle, whose courtyards recall the splendor of Renaissance Milan and the presence of Leonardo da Vinci at the ducal court. As the city lights begin to shine, atmospheric streets, elegant squares, and local stories reveal a charming side of Milan that many visitors never experience during the daytime.
