Navigate through the canals of Milan on a half day guided tour through the charming region of Navigli.
Dating back to 1100, the Navigli was utilized at the end of the 14th century to help transport marble required to build the Duomo. The Milan wharf remained an important commercial port for river transport until closing permanently in 1979.
Accompanied by your English-speaking guide, you'll view typical 'case di ringhiera' houses, antique stores and bars and cafes, all perched canal-side. Catch a glimpse of local life going by, as you board a 50 minute cruise on the Naviglio Pavese and Naviglio Grande. Afterwards, you'll embark on a 90 minute walking tour through the arty quarter, admiring historic sites including the Porta Ticinese - one of the main doorways to the city, as well as the famous Portinari Chapel, the ancient church of San Lorenzo Maggiore with its impressive columns and the church of St. Eustorgio.
