Milan Greeters
‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎ Free Walk with a local

Discover Milan through a free walk with a local

Milan is truly fascinating because of its contrasts: bustling and modern, yet rich in history; lively and vibrant, full of art, fashion, and Italian style. The Duomo will captivate you with its external splendour, its interior is just as breathtaking, and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele will impress any potential shopper, but that’s not the real Milan. Experience the city up close, discover its best-kept treasures, and get to know the city like a local by taking part in a walk with a Milan Greeter.

Milan Greeters are volunteers who give an authentic insight into life in their city. They are not city guides. For guided tour of monuments and museums, please visit tour guides website. The meeting focus on the dialog between guest and greeters. All guests can expect the kind of walk you would take with friends, a conversation at eye level about life in the cities where guests and greeters live.

Remember: A Greet means meeting a local resident to walk around town with you as new friends. The first step will be to talk to the Greeter about the details of your personalized tour. It's not about taking part in a standardized tour, but about exploring the city with an expert volunteer .

Maximum six people!

Our core value #2 reads "Greeters welcome individuals and may serve small groups of up to six people."
The reason is that each Greet should be an opportunity to talk to each other and that seems impossible in bigger groups.
Also important: we do not mingle people from different requests but serve only you (and your friends).

Meet a local volunteer

Our core value #1  reads "Greeters are volunteers, a friendly face for those visiting a city."
It's true: Our Greeters love their city or town and they are proud to share this with guests.
How could you better discover the most interesting spots of a place?

Free service, no tipping

Our core value #3 reads "Meeting a Greeter is free of charge."
We do not follow a "give what you think is ok (but please give)" strategy. Greeters honestly do not like any tipping because what they give comes from their heart not because of any tipping expectation.
If you would like to support the Greeters as a whole you are welcome to donate to the International Greeter Association here.

Roberto’s friendliness, helpfulness, kindness and his passion for Milan is undeniable. We would highly recommend to meet with Roberto who knows this City intimately. We would never have known the city and it’s unknown secrets without Roberto‘s help. He went over and above and we loved every minute. Thanks Roberto.

We had the most amazing morning in Milan with Dino! We were told about the interesting history and culture of the city and saw some beautiful buildings and streets. Dino introduced us to some Italian treats which were delicious and recommended us a great place for our lunch. I highly recommended Milan Greeters!
