Celebrate the cultural and historical offerings of Milan and see one of its most iconic images, Leonardo da Vinci's magnificent The Last Supper, housed in the church of Santa Maria delle Grazie. Begin with a scenic motorcoach ride from port to northern Italy's most fashionable city and embark on a walking tour of its city center, the Piazza del Duomo, a showcase for the world's largest Gothic cathedral. You'll see the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, a gallery with shops and restaurants, and the pretty Piazza della Scala. At the church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, step into the refectory to behold The Last Supper. Marvel at the fresco's impressive size at 460 x 880 cm (15 x 29 feet) and stunning beauty a result of a painstaking restoration that took more than 22 years to complete. Conclude with a picturesque ride to port.
