Highly recommend! - This was a wonderful tour. Sara was very knowledgeable. As we walked the beautiful shopping district, we learned about various designers, watched a fashion shoot, walked through an exhibit of 20th century fashion, and stopped in a few stores where we bought jewelry and handbags discounted for the summer sales. I was with my teenage daughter and her friend and Sarah was great at capturing their interest. I suspect that each tour is different and tailored on the spot to meet the needs of the group. Well worth it!

Real insight into Milan’s fashion industry - Sara gave us a wonderful tour of Milan’s golden triangle including the exquisite fashion museum. She has worked in fashion in Milan since she moved there to study many years ago. Her industry knowledge and insight is what I think would differentiate this tour from others. One member of our group is a 20 year old fashion student. She loved every minute of this tour and said it was the highlight of her time in Milan.

An exciting afternoon exploring Milan fashion - Spending time with Sara was truly a highlight of my visit to Milan! As a solo traveler Sara was friendly, warm, and so very helpful. She customized the tour for me and gave some great context on the legacy fashion houses and upcoming designers, exploring unique corners where fashion shoots are held, and other secret spots. We also mixed in some shopping too and am very excited for my new outfits. Also a special callout for helping me navigate a pharmacy to get some help with a minor eye issue! You will not regret a tour with Sara with her extensive industry background, welcoming personality, and flexibility!
