Milan tour

Thank you Mr Sze for the lovely tour of Milan. You were very friendly and knowledgeable of the history of Italian fashion. I enjoyed your use of local boutiques to visualize the process of Italian tailoring and its uniqueness. Although I unfortunately did not have much more time in Milan, I appreciated the many recommendations for additional places to visit and will keep them in mind for the future. Your tour felt personal and considerate of my specified interest, and you showed a genuine effort to connect with me as a person. I wish you success in your endeavors in Italy and hope to visit Milan again in the future. Grazie!

A MUST-DO TOUR!

You can tell that fashion is Sze's passion. He was able to bring together history, art, and architecture together to contextualize the journey of how Milan became so pivotal to fashion. With Sze's knowledge, you learn how to recognize quality beyond just brands. It's also worth noting how pleasant and flexible and pleasant Sze is. We customized our tour by adding Villa Necchi and Sze was even able to provide the tour in Mandarin to accommodate my parents!
