Your tour begins on Piazza del Duomo, beneath the arches of the Benneton store. Here, you’ll greet your guide and immediately launch into a historical overview of the Duomo, the third largest Catholic church in the world.
Begin by admiring the Duomo’s grandiose Gothic façade, replete with gargoyles, elaborate carvings, and statues, and then, with your skip-the-line ticket in hand, you’ll bypass lines and head straight to Duomo’s elevator for the short ride to the summit of Italy’s biggest cathedral. At the top, you’ll be mesmerized by panoramic views of Milan and gain an alternative perspective of the 3,400 statues that decorate Duomo’s façade.
If you’re feeling brave enough, ascend 50 steps to the cathedral’s highest point for the ultimate view of Milan’s skyline and see the golden statue of the Virgin Mary.
Your tour concludes at the exit of Duomo.
