Located in the heart of Milan, the La Scala Opera house and museum are part of one of the most charming art forms. With our tour, you can see behind the scenes this fabulous world, stroll through the incredible theater area and enjoy the auditorium, the cabins, the place of the orchestra and the stage itself.
You will also visit the theater museum and the library, where you can admire the paintings and musical instruments dedicated to the great Italian composers, and learn more about the history of opera. See portraits of famous Italian masters such as Giuseppe Verdi and Arturo Toscanini.
While walking through the theater and museum, you will have the opportunity to see how much work involves producing an opera in this famous place, where some of the best singers in the world have performed for more than 200 years.
Good experience. The experience was overall pleasant, but it was not quite what I expected. I have attended other opera house guided tours before, and the information provided there was much more focused on the opera itself, the history of the building, and the theatre's cultural significance. In this tour, a large part of the presentation focused on topics that felt less relevant and unnecessary for visitors. We left the group to walk in the theatre ourselves.

An absolutely awe-inspiring visit! La Scala is one of the most iconic theatres in the world and the museum tour did not disappoint. The guide was passionate and knowledgeable, sharing wonderful stories about famous performances and artists. The interior of the theatre is breathtaking. A must-do in Milan!
Marcella war eine großartige Reiseleiterin. Sie war sympathisch und lustig und wir haben es sehr genossen, uns mit ihr zu unterhalten, während wir auf der Tour waren. Sie war sehr gut informiert über die Tour und auch über Paris im Allgemeinen. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit!
