The one day private walking tour begins with your official guide collecting you at your hotel in Milan, and together will reach the Sforza Castle. Originally a Visconti fortress, this iconic red-brick castle was later home to the mighty Sforza dynasty, who ruled Renaissance Milan. The castle’s defences were designed by the multitalented Leonardo da Vinci; Napoleon later drained the moat and removed the drawbridges. Today, it houses seven specialised museums, which gather together intriguing fragments of Milan’s cultural and civic history.
