Overview
Your tour begins on Piazza del Duomo, in front of Mondadori. 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.

There is a bit of stair climbing both up and down. There is also a bit of scaffolding which obscures the view.
Great views, fascinating history, great tour guide
heathercM8281VV, Apr 2025
Wonderful guide, fascinating look at the rooftops and the perfect amount of time. This is a must do. We are a family of five with kids raging from 9 to 13 and everyone loved it. Lots of photo opportunities but also lots of just chill out opportunities.
