GroupVerified bookingJul 20265/5A thunderstorm rolled in, and we weren't allowed to go up the Duomo. Two hours later, the staff at the entrance recognized us and let us in to climb it. It was a really cool and amazing experience. The Duomo was the highlight of our trip to Milan.LLundy Z

CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5This was by far the most incredible place I have ever been. Going to the terrace is an absolute must, because even though it is spectacular from the outside, that alone doesn't do it justice.IIris W
