Milan holds many treasures, but none rivals the emotional power of Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper — a masterpiece so studied, so imitated, and so shrouded in mystery that five centuries later, it still leaves visitors speechless.
Step into the very refectory where Leonardo painted, beside the breathtaking Basilica of Santa Maria delle Grazie, and let us guide you through the history, the myths, and the secrets few visitors ever discover.
This isn't just a painting — it's a frozen moment of pure human emotion. On our guided tour, you'll learn to read what Leonardo himself pioneered: the "movements of the soul" captured in every glance, every gesture, every trembling hand around that table. Fear. Betrayal. Loyalty. Disbelief. It's all there, hidden in plain sight — and we'll show you exactly where to look.
Don't just see the Last Supper. Understand it.

Excellent Tour, not rushed
VTAndy, October 2026
Excellent guide equipped with ear phones for all...very easy to hear & understand. She was super knowledgeable and gave us a lot of background & history before our scheduled time to enter. No crowds as system only allows a small number of people at a time. After the Last Supper visit she took us on a walking tour to see other highlights close by.

Maria is a treasure!
winterross, October 2026
Maria was an exceptional guide deserving of 12 stars! She was incredibly knowledgeable, articulate and interesting. Standing in the refectory opposite the Last Supper while Maria spoke of the setting depicted in the piece, the relationship of the apostles to one another and the emotion being conveyed by them via the artistic use of color, context and lighting was extraordinary. Maria is a very gifted art historian and guide and a true treasure to her clients!

Perfect Experience!
michellecT9458ZZ, October 2026
This tour was absolutely phenomenal! Our guide, Elena, was wonderful - she was very thorough and engaging. I had no idea just how cool this tour would be, and it exceeded all my expectations. The church was beautiful, and the experience of viewing the Last Supper was probably my favorite thing on our trip. LOVED IT!
