Branca Tower (Torre Branca) Tours and Activities

"Behind every great city there's a garden", stated Swiss architect Bernard Tschumi in the Seventies. Milan, the most European of Italian cities, does not make an exception: Parco Sempione lies at the North-Wester edge of the historical centre as a precious green lung, being a focal point for Milanese leisure. A private guided tour will lead you across the park, discovering the artistic and architectural beauties hidden among the trees. Finally, you will gain a breathtaking view of the whole skyline, reaching the top of Branca tower: who even knew that Milan had its own Eiffel tower?

Enjoy a private guided walk that starts from one of the most visited places in the city: the Sforza Castle. Visit the courtyards of this beautiful palace, an oasis of art and culture, while your guide will tell you all about its fascinating history and the artwork it hides.
