Zse was wonderful. Extremely knowledgeable and thoughtful. Learned so much about fashion, Italy, influences and approach to form and function. Highly recommend for a deep dive into Milan.

Shopping with Sara and seeing Milan was an amazing experience. Sara is knowledgeable and vivacious. She took her time to discuss the Fashion Scene and history of Milan. From high end to vintage shopping this tour has a lot to offer. Sara also took me to a cool art exhibition on Fashion. Thanks to Sara I got to discover a lot of hidden gems in Milan.

This my first time using this platform and definitely no regrets at all. Sara, my lovely guide was very kind to accommodate to my changes due to work meetings. (Thank you 🙏🏼☺️) She brought me around the whole area of Brera district and gave me some really insightful tips and introduced to me some streets and shops that I probably wouldn’t have passed by if I was walking around on my own. I also very much appreciated visiting the Museo and Galleries. What a passionate individual about the fashion and arts industry! So glad that she catered to some of my requests so it’s a great blend between sightseeing, understanding the industry in Milan culture and also a little bit of shopping too. From modern shops to vintage markets, it was just splendid. We even managed to squeeze in to sit down a nice chat over a nice wine and some nice cheese and ham, exchanging our cultures and sharing experiences in life. Definitely recommend Sara as your guide if you want an insightful, down to earth and engaging guided tour!

Our guide Sara was knowledgeable, had a vast experience in the fashion industry and was vivacious. She made our Milan experience complete. This tour is a MUST.

We had the most memorable tour with Francesca. She was so helpful in every store and even made arrangements with store personnel to find what we were looking for at their other branches. Except for all the well known designers she showed us many vintage stores with the most amazing fashion items. Francesca shared so much knowledge about the history of Milan and details about different landmarks which we enjoyed so much. Very helpful, friendly and I will definitely recommend her as a guide for bookings of this tour. Also provided us with more info for other places we can visit. Thanks Francesca for all the memories we made today and making us feel so welcome in Milan!!

Our tour guide, “Zse”, was amazing - extremely personable, knowledgable, and with great historical perspective! I would not hesitate to book this tour. This was my third time visiting Milan and, after the tour, I have a whole new perspective on this city. I was not interested, necessarily, in fashion, however, I found the tour and content fascinating! If you think Milan is bland and nothing special, you need to experience this excursion to be exposed to the other side of Milan!

Heather_B

Sara was a fantastic tour guide! She tailored our time together to what I was interested in seeing and took me to some fantastic local artisans where I bought some awesome boots and a beautiful leather handbag, both made by Milanese designers/store owners. By far the highlight of my time in Milan!

All of it! It was probably the best tour ever!! Everything was beautifully laid out from our walking path to the fascination stories.

Amazing! Loved spending time with Sze, he was so knowledgeable about Milanese fashion. I learned so much about the origins of Milanese RTW and how to apply the ideas. Bought a dress at La Double J and a top from Missoni, which I love! Also great tip for pastries at Marchesi for my 8 year old daughter. Thanks Sze!

Keith B

Sze was very generous with his time after we were delayed arriving at the meeting point. Sze has not only a wealth of Milan fashion industry knowledge but also Milan’s history and how this became woven into Milan becoming the centre for ready to wear apparel. Sze also explained how the family fashion houses became established. It was a pleasure to have Sze as our guide.
