You’re spoilt for choice in terms of what to see and do in Milan – and there are many innovative ways to experience the sights that make the city so unique. Let Culture Trip’s curated list of original tours and experiences take you to the very heart of Italy’s northern powerhouse.

There’s so much to explore in Milan, but even more to discover through a local’s perspective. The Milanese do things a little bit differently: theirs is a world of revving engines, strong espressos, and parties that go on long into the night. They’re bolder and more bombastic than their counterparts in Rome or Florence, and as such, they present all manner of ways for you to explore their city. Here is a selection of six of the most daring and original experiences the city has to offer, so you can learn not just about the sights, but about its character, too.
