Go behind the scenes of Milan's famous opera house on the La Scala Theater & Museum Guided Experience. Follow your guide through costumes, instruments and portraits, then look into the auditorium from a box if access allows.

📖

Full description

This guided cultural tour covers La Scala's museum of costumes, instruments and portraits of major figures such as Verdi and Toscanini, using the objects to explain the theatre's history and its performers. When the schedule allows, views from the boxes reveal the neoclassical auditorium and its chandelier, and a rehearsal may be visible, though neither is guaranteed.

It is a tour, not an opera ticket. Reviews are mixed on the delivery: one visitor found the guide exceptionally knowledgeable, while others struggled with quiet commentary and buzzing headsets.

Check the booked language and format before you go.
