What to expect
Expect a steady 2.5-hour walk with frequent stops for food. Your guide steers you past Milan's key sights—the Cathedral dominates Piazza del Duomo, and you'll spot the Roman-era Circus ruins and the copper L.O.V.E. installation. Between landmarks, you'll duck into working markets and small shops where you'll taste things you wouldn't order yourself: house-made pasta, cured meats, regional cheeses. The guide talks you through why these dishes matter locally and how families have cooked them for years. It's social rather than rushed; you're eating with a group, not alone.
