Outstanding. Would do it again. Followed another review that suggested going up around 3.30 to see the sun going down which was a great tip. Took the stairs and did not book the cathedral as someone said you will be taken back down through the cathedral to the exit. This was also magnificent to see and enough for us without booking it as an extra

Full description

Avoid the hassle of buying an entrance ticket to the Milan Duomo on the day by picking one up in advance. By far the most unique feature of the cathedral is its vast terraces, granting a panoramic viewpoint over Milan and a birds-eye perspective on the church itself. With options to challenge yourself by mounting the 250 stairs up to the terraces, or to take a ride on the convenient elevator, the terraces are accessible to all with a desire to see this iconic sight. Once you’re on the terrace, peer out over the city from over 150 feet (ca. 46 meters) above street level while taking in the characteristic rows of white marble spires. An enduring symbol of Milan, the cathedral broke ground in 1386, only to be finished in 1965. Built of stunning marble quarried from the Candoglia region, there are few better examples of Italian Gothic architecture in existence.

Very good, a lot of stairs so be wary. It didn’t include church access but even on this booking you still get to go into the church, but just a smaller area of it. Would also recommend booking at sunset too!
