“The stadium & what we saw was great & very interesting. But we were shunted to Self guided as 'too hot' - maybe if we booked direct we would have made a group. They said we could ask questions & staff were all very lovely but in Australia we don't have football clubs like this & we wanted to try and understand the history & the other religion that is football in Europe. Yes we saw & read the museum timeline of the stadium & of the players of inter & ac but some context would have made it worthwhile. Also it is this time of year that the pitch…”

Tour La Scala in Milan with a guide, see its auditorium and orchestra pit when available, then explore costumes, instruments, portraits, and opera memorabilia.
“We never got into the theatre. We saw a minute or two of a ballet rehearsal through a plexiglass window in one of the theatre boxes. However, the theatre and boxes were dark. Never saw the theatre decor, red velvet or any part of the theatre except for a foyer. The tour centered around a small museum full of miscellaneous opera related items. The guide did her best to be informative and engaging. Over half the people left mid tour. Very disappointing. Don't waste your monies.”
