Additional Information

Experience the metropolis through the perspective of a dedicated local resident. The tour allows for personal customization, or if preferred, the local can lead the way for an enlightening dive into the city’s culture. Treat travel as an opportunity to connect with humans, not merely landmarks. Our pedestrian explorations let you bypass the ordinary historic tours to see the city as a native would. Participate in a journey that shifts your travel emphasis towards the people you encounter, equal to the sights you witness. Our local ambassadors (Lokafyers) are zealous about their hometown and excited to impart their knowledge and viewpoint. As Lokafyers are not full-time guides and take tours occasionally, the experience they present is genuine and intimate, akin to a friend taking you on a city tour. By the conclusion of the exploration, you’ll be at ease traversing the city and feel confident about having all the necessary information for your visit.

  • Lokafy tours provide a general overview of the city with practical information from a local’s perspective, not detailed historical facts
  • In case travellers would like to include a visit to an attraction, they would need to cover the cost of entrance for themselves and also the Lokafyer (local guide)

Milan walking tour was excellent - Laura was wonderful we could have asked more. We had a very limited time in Milan and Laura gracefully showed us the sights around Milan and booked dinner for us. Top marks!!

Seeing Milan through Dalara's eyes - Our 2 hours with Dalara was very informal and relaxed. We enjoyed her company very much. She took us to the Sforza Castle that has a lovely big park behind it. This is were she likes to meet her friends and hang out. She took us to her favourite pastry shop and her favourite take out place for panzerotti. Dalara was an absolute delight!

Tour with a local ‘friend’ - A great experience with a local ‘friend’. Our tour was customized to our desires and Vladislav’s enthusiasm was contagious. We had door to door service. We even went to his restaurant recommendations. We couldn’t be happier

Our tourguide was an hour late - Luckily I messaged our tourguide an hour before the tour because we had to walk 40 minutes to the meeting point. Half an hour before the tour she texted saying she is half an hour late, later at the time she was supposed to be there she texted again saying she needs another 20 or so minutes. It was raining and cold and already 3pm and it's winter so it would've been dark soon. We think she forgot about our tour and left wherever she was before and that was probably not that close. At least the operator was quick to response and refunded us the whole tour super quick. Operators are great, our tourguide was not. We wasted almost 3 hrs with walking and waiting.
