Informative, if basic - As a theater lover, I was especially excited to tour the space. Guide was informative and kept things moving. Good to know that a view from the box isn't always guaranteed -- we were lucky to witness a few moments of a rehearsal. Pro-tip: there's only one bathroom and it's on the third floor.

La Scala guided tour - The headphone sound was very poor quality, cracking and buzzing throughout. The guide was not engaging and seemed bored in his job - for such an incredible building and such a rich subject this was disappointing. The museum, costumes and art work was very interesting, the video displays were enlightening and the auditorium was breath taking. We loved our visit but only after we went our own way. We left our guide after 20 minutes feeling very disappointed with the experience. In hindsight we wished we had just booked an entry ticket.

Poor customer service - bait and switch - I booked (and paid for) a tour with a private guide. When I arrived at the meeting point, a Viator coordinator checked me in, then shuffled me off to a group of 20. When I told the guide I’d booked a private tour, he shrugged and said he could do nothing…and said no one else could help me. After the tour, I reached out to Viator requesting some of my money back. They refused and offered no explanation nor apology.

Disappointing experience - There was a rehearsal in the theater so we couldn't see him when that was the important part of the visit. These rehearsals are planned in advance and Viator is not expected to sell tickets at this time. The band was very angry and I hope now that Viator will be professional enough to refund us with an apology for this missed afternoon. We left Milan the next morning, we'll never see La Scala.
