Hello! My name is Michaela. I've been working in tourism since 1997. As a travel agent, flight attendant, and tour leader, I traveled a lot. I met people from different countries, visited different regions, and learned different ways of life. I am a licensed tour guide in Milan, Varese, and Lake Maggiore. Milan has a rich artistic heritage that goes well behind its most famous landmarks. I promote and enhance the discovery of Milan through guided tours for adults and children. I work as a freelancer with Italian and foreign travel agencies and tour operators, guiding Italian, French, and English-speaking groups. I am native Milanese, and I have an excellent knowledge of my land with its several charming and artistic sites: Milan, Varese, the Lake Maggiore and their Villas, the Valley, the mountains but also typical gastronomy, ancient traditions, and folklore. I can help you to plan your itineraries to satisfy your interests and demands at best. I am looking forward to guiding you through the history and the treasures of the city! Official Tour guide: Milan: licence N°532010 Varese and Lake Maggiore: license N°188/2008

the Duomo and the Church of San Bernardino and its ossuary
Overview of your Milan tour
Is the Duomo a Cathedral built on behalf of the devil? People say the devil appeared before the Duke and forced him to built a cathedral in his name. Is the Capricorn on the wall a mere zodiac sign, being part of the Duomo sundial? One of the most suggestive ossuary in Italy is inside the Church of San Bernardino alle Ossa in the centre of Milan, just few minutes away from Duomo square. the Ossuary was built to move the remains from Milan Hospital cemetery. When the church collapsed because of a fire, the ossuary was re-built and its walls decorated with bones, who form geometrical shapes, crosses and so on. People say that on Oct 31st the bones of a child sneak out and start dancing. If you pass by, you can hear creepy noises!
