About this experience

This tour showcases the Navigli canals, which were partly designed by Leonardo da Vinci and historically used for transporting goods. The Navigli district is known for its vibrant atmosphere, featuring bars, art studios, and trattorias. The tour includes an optional aperitivo with one drink of your choice, such as a Spritz or Italian wine, along with a selection of snacks like olives and bruschetta.
