Lorella, our guide met us at the side of the Duomo. She carried a flag so we could recognise her. After a brief introduction and bag search by security, we were straight inside the cathedral (literally no queue with Fast track). Lorella’s knowledge was brilliant. She made the place really come alive, pointing out details that we would otherwise have overlooked. The Duomo itself is breathtaking both inside and out. We were guided through the cathedral, recently discovered Roman under croft and up onto the roof tops (via lift up). Lorella left udon the roof top to make our own way down. If you’re thinking of visiting Milan cathedral, don’t hesitate to book a guided tour. You will not be disappointed. (Ours was a private tour so I can’t comment on the group ones).

The scale of this cathedral is staggering just walking around it would maybe take 5 - 10 minutes. The detail of the architecture on the outside is jaw dropping and then when you go inside you are equally amazed. I would say it’s in the top handful of religious structures in the world that has this detail and size to it. It’s simply amazing and a must see not just for Milan but for Italy.

We did a small group guided tour with Julia G. She was amazing! So knowledgeable about the cathedral and pointed out some really small details that you'd normally missed. The cathedral is the most amazing thing with 600+ years of history to see. Something for everyone! And the rooftops were really special.

No words to describe , it is beautiful experienced , it is a dream and it is spectacular. It is in the most high season of the year and tourists just pouring but even then there are alot of space to do photography . It is pleasant, no bandidos if we think of pick pocketing and such but then again it is expensive in Milan The queue were long but otherwise its smooth.

We visited the duomo during our stay in Milan and it is definitely something that you must do. The inside of the church is highly decorated as you would expect and in good condition. For us, the highlight was going to the roof. The views were amazing and you really got a sense of the cathedral and the immense amount of work that it takes to maintain the building. We did this with a tour as it was easier to get the tickets and we learned some extra information this way. Be sure your roof access is included and that it is via the elevator.

The Duomo in Milan is so majestic. It is worth climbing the 400 odd steps to get on the roof for the views. They are spectacular. Fabulous experience. I would recommend to buy the tickets online it is so much quicker and easier. The square that the Duomo is on is so lively at all times day and night. There is so many people and music, a lovely place to be.

Wow - it is hard to believe that such a place actually exists! It is hard to comprehend the faith, work, and perseverance that went into this church over 600 years. Every inch, inside and out, tells an incredible story. Do NOT forget to also get a ticket for the roof to enjoy a view of the city and to see some of the architecture up close. TIP: Get a skip-the-line guided tour in ADVANCE. It is worth every penny.

Absolutely amazing- a must see from the inside out. You have to take the tour that includes the tour of the roof as that was simply breathtaking. If you go in the evening on a nice day even better for photos and views. Also, it was still warm inside at that time of day so during the afternoon in July would be most uncomfortable.

A stunning building. Gorgeous rooftops with stunning views. One star removed for the amount of scaffolding, not making it clear where the museum was (which the ticket also included) and too many people on the rooftops at once. Take the stairs to the roof, it’s not that bad really and much quicker than queueing for the lift! It is worth going up though to see the architecture. Inside the church was just as stunning.

Stunning views, gorgeous architecture and really fascinating. From when you approach it for example coming up from the metro station, it’s overwhelmingly beautiful. Make sure you reserve tickets ahead of time to make it easier on yourself and avoid lines.
