Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the meeting point?

You'll meet your friendly local guide not far from the cathedral in Duomo Square. Exact instructions will be provided after booking.

What should I bring?

This is a walking tour so please wear some comfortable shoes, and you'll need to be able to cover your knees and shoulders while inside. Helmets, large bags, and glass objects are prohibited at the Duomo.

Is there a dress code to enter the religious sites on this tour?

We ask both men and women to cover knees and shoulders, otherwise security might refuse entry to religious sites and you’ll miss out on a portion of your tour. We understand the summers in Milan can be hot, so a great alternative is to bring a shawl/scarf/sweater with you. That way you can cover your knees and shoulders when necessary. Please avoid wearing sports-club t-shirts.
