As you walk along the Navigli canals, pause for the perfect Instagrammable shots on iconic bridges while unraveling the secrets of Leonardo da Vinci’s hydraulic genius. Step into the legendary Vicolo dei Lavandai, where you will visit a painter’s studio tucked away in a historic courtyard. This is a true “hidden gem” moment, offering an intimate glimpse into the bohemian heart of Milanese art.

Continue your stroll through history, passing the monumental Piazza 24 Maggio, the ancient Basilica of Sant’Eustorgio, and finally arriving at the majestic Columns of San Lorenzo. Here, under the shadow of Roman ruins, conclude your experience at a refined restaurant.

Enjoy a curated signature plate—a sophisticated selection of traditional Milanese excellence paired with a premium Piedmontese wine. To conclude, a strictly homemade dessert (no industrial products) will provide the perfect sweet end to your journey.
