“This was a lot of fun! I did this tour with my granddaughters and we all enjoyed it! Great way to see the “untouristy” Milan. However we did experience extreme difficulties in downloading the information and even though I paid for three “tickets” we could only get it to work on my phone. Disappointing as the girls would have liked access to the game afterwards.”
