Spot on - Fantastic commentary by our guide. Not too long and not too short. Lots to see. We had the lights off and lights on experience during preparation for the show.

La Scala tour - We really enjoyed this tour with Giula. The theatre has a very interesting history and the museum has many fascinating artefacts. Giula was very knowledgeable and provided very useful background information. The highlight of the tour was seeing the theatre with all the lights on.There were rehearsals in progress at the time we visited so initially it wasn’t looking likely that we would see the theatre lit up however the theatre staff were very accommodating and we were allowed to visit the theatre during a rehearsal break. Highly recommended for any visit to Milan

Must see - We could not benefit from the visit in French, cancelled at the last moment. Rehearsals in the room did not allow us to access it, too bad it is a wonder. The guide was great, thanks to her

Very poor - Badly organized. Host late. Guide was charming but material boring. You would only go if you had to see the inside of a box and the stage.

Don't waste your money! - My heart sank when the guide turned up with 10 seconds to go to realise it was the same guide I had for my Duomo tour. Uninterested, monotone voice and constantly checking his watch to see when he could make an early get away. The theatre itself is beautiful but I have learnt nothing about it. I asked a couple of questions and he muttered that he didn't know. With the right guide this could be a great tour, but with the wrong one, as I have now had twice, it's just plain boring.
