Great experience thanks to amazing guide

We had the most amazing guide! I wish I could remember her name (Andrea?). She really made the tour an amazing experience to remember. She was so knowledgeable, animated, and also funny. I am so glad we booked the tour and didn’t just go into La Scala to look around ourselves. We enjoyed every minute of the tour and would highly recommend to do while in Milan.
Excellent tour guide.

Great Tour to learn about the importance of the theater and not just the music in Milan
Arnold_T
, Jul 2022
This is a great tour, not just for the music enthusiasts but for everyone. The theater was central to the culture, politics and economics in Milan. Our guide was very knowledgeable, before ending the theater took us around pointing to a few neighborhoods that were important to the history of Milan. We learned about Musolini's actions in Milan. The theater was very impressive and to learn how they prepare for months the customs and scenery for each presentation was eye opening.
When visiting Milan, don't miss this tour.
Enjoyable experience

Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and engaging. Our tour was made extra special because the people working at the opera house love our tour guide and so they offered us posters of the last opera of the season. We received this memorable gift because of our tour guide’s cordial relationship with everyone working in the opera house. We are very grateful!
La Scala History -terrific!

If you’re interested at all in opera, and opera in Italy, and the history of La Scala, this is a tour for you. Seeing the lighting run in the theater, being given the history of the building itself, and the lobbies, the arcitecture, and culminating in the museum tour, it was a great bit of history to get. The guide was informative, knowlgable, happy to answer our questions, and it was neither too long nor too short. Good job.

Guide was fantastic. Only issue was the description saying we needed to redeem our ticket at one place and meet at another when in fact there was no need to redeem the ticket before meeting. Also I was upset to see we might not have been able to get in depending on the La Scala schedule and our visit limited to the museum. We were able to get in but I would have been upset if we couldn’t get in and wouldn’t be entitled to reschedule or a refund.
Great guide at La Scala

Our guide - Lorella did not lead us into a building, but into a romantic story of music, with composers, opera singers ang their characters, stage, boxes, costumes. She was very informative and very interesting, with a great passion for Milan, for its history and culture. Loved this tour. Thank you Lorella!
Well worth the $

It was awesome experience to spend this time with Lorella! So many interesting stories, that cant be read in a paper guide. At the end of the walk we were lucky to see the view from balconies. Great passion, very interesting narrative. It made me regret i didn’t book such awesome guide when visiting other cities in Europe. Thank you Lorella! 😊

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
