Day 2 - The Last Supper and the Brera District
In the morning, meet your private driver for the transfer to Da Vinci’s Last Supper.
Upon arrival, enjoy a visit to this beautiful masterpiece.
The Duke of Milan commissioned the wall painting for the monastery. The Duke, Sforza, was a patron of the arts, specifically Leonardo da Vinci. Leonardo completed the painting in three years. When it was finished, it was immediately named a masterpiece.
It depicts the dramatic scene described in several closely connected moments in the Gospels, in which Jesus declares that one of the Apostles will betray him and later institutes the Eucharist.
The painting has deteriorated throughout the centuries and has been restored numerous times because Leonardo didn’t use the usual technique to create the fresco; instead, he created a unique way to do it. That’s why, despite all the restoration efforts, the painting remains fragile.
After visiting the painting, enjoy a short visit to Santa Maria dell Grazie, one of the greatest examples of Renaissance art associated with the name of Leonardo da Vinci.
At the end of the visit, stop for lunch at a suggested restaurant.
After lunch, meet again your driver for the transfer to Brera District to continue your guided tour of some of Milan's highlights.

At the end of the visit, return to the hotel accompanied by your private driver.
