About this tour
This session covers San Siro from the outside, the stadium shared by AC Milan and Inter Milan. You see the spiral ramps that wrap around the ground and hear how it has grown since 1926, then reach the museum entrance, where shirts and trophies from both clubs are visible through the windows. It is a football history session built for anyone who cannot get to a match in the city themselves.
We start with a sound check outside the main gates, since the area can be busy on the way to the museum. I move around to the entrance for the second stop and answer questions about either club's history as we go. A short list of matchday traditions follows by message afterwards.
It suits anyone with an interest in Italian football, whether or not they support either club. It also works well as a quick session for fans with limited time in Milan.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included

The camera circles the stadium's distinctive spiral ramps, and I explain how the ground has been rebuilt and expanded since it opened in 1926 to hold two rival clubs at once.

-
A short list to keep 4 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Ossobuco and Navigli, worth a slower look.
Good to know
