Important information

What you should know

  • Check your email the day before the tour.
  • Please note that the number of attractions depends on the selected option. Skip-the-line tickets to the La Scala Theater Museum grant you on-time entry, without waiting in line at the ticket office. Admission is for the museum, and not the main opera building. You can see the stage from third-level boxes, but only when rehearsals, performances or events open to the public are not in progress.
  • Fast-track tickets to Duomo are reserved for a specific time, but you can’t skip the line at the entrance and security checks. Entry during masses and special events is restricted. Ascend to the rooftops is via lift, but due to renovation works, descend may be via stairs (250 steps). We apologize for the inconvenience.
  • The 3 and 5-hour options include an estimated 1-hour round-trip transfer from your accommodation. We will arrange a standard car (sedan) for 1-4 people, or a larger van for 5+ people and more. You can book a 5-people tour for a larger car.
