It was wonderful, I really loved it. The atmosphere was incredible – I would love to come back and spend more time to take everything in more thoroughly. I recommend it to everyone; the last paintings in particular were absolutely breathtaking. Thank you.

It is very clear that the guide is extremely knowledgeable but also has great pride in the level of artistry that has been produced by the great Italian artists of her nation. I had visited the Brera several times in the past but never with a guide. The guided tour provides much education and art enrichment that you could not obtain on your own. The guided tour provides a deeper understanding of the artist and the times within they existed. It is well worth your time and there is also an added bonus of a quick neighborhood tour of the Brera.

I like to visit Milan every now and then, especially to check out cultural and artistic events. Yesterday, along with two friends, I went to the Pinacoteca di Brera, which we reached on foot from the Central Station. At the entrance, I showed the reservation number I had received via email. I was a little hesitant since, for the first time, I didn’t have tickets—just a code—and my friends were counting on me. Everything went smoothly. Within minutes, we found ourselves immersed in the wonderful paintings of great artists from the past, and we were also able to admire the stunning Giorgio Armani dresses on display in some of the galleries. A truly enriching experience!

Lock in timed entry so your gallery visit fits into your day, letting you enjoy the collection without handling tickets on site there.

On the day, arrive for your timed entry slot, show your booking at the entrance, pass security checks, then walk straight into the galleries to begin.

Once inside, move freely between rooms, choosing the path that suits you, pausing when something catches your eye or picking a quicker circuit.

Shape the visit around your interests, giving yourself space to look closer, step back, chat with your group, or simply sit and absorb the mood.

Add an audio guide to deepen the visit, listening to commentary in Italian, English, French, Spanish, German, or Russian as you move through rooms.

Upgrade to a guided tour of the gallery plus a walking tour of the Brera neighborhood, with audio headsets included for groups of more than eight.

Explore Palazzo Citterio, the restored extension of the Brera museum complex, and see more works from the collection beyond the main Pinacoteca di Brera galleries.

La Pinacoteca di Brera merita assolutamente una visita anche per chi, come me, non è particolarmente appassionata della pittura del periodo. Il mio suggerimento è di seguire il percorso delle 8 opere da non perdere, vale la pena anche solo per il Caravaggio,
