Last Supper was extraordinary! I saw many famous painting this trip, however, this was a best. We were lucky to make a reservation two days before. It is so hard to make reservation so, book in advance. Don't miss it when you go to Milan!

Not a massive art fan, but definitely appreciated the last supper. Yes its old, and you have to book massively in advance, and no photos. Blah blah. The 3D effect of the painting making the room look longer and the lighting put into the painiting is amazing. Also the painting opposite is good but makes the last supper look even... More

The L'Ultima Cena is the most interesting attraction to be visited in Milan. Definitely it is something that everyone must have the opportunity to visit. The experience itself is not perfect. The Italians in general are not very receptive and it happens in that site too. I can’t understand why it is not permitted to take pictures. I can understand... More

I had always studied The Last Supper in art books (art history major) but walking in and suddenly seeing it there was, literally, breath-taking. You are only allowed 15 minutes, but the guide gives you information while you're looking at it; you are not allowed to film or take pictures. A warning: buy tickets as far in advance as possible....

I called just few days in advance and managed to get two early morning tickets without a problem. 15 minutes with a masterpiece. It was well organized, no crowds, no cues. We felt satisfied with overall experience. Don't think it would be the same if we had to pay some overpriced tour. It is worth a try to call regular... More

We visited Milan for 1 week in May. We booked in April from the UK via the website which takes you to vivaticket to allow booking of multiple tickets. The site does not like aol so give a non aol email address when setting up account. When we booked only one time slot on one day had availability. It is... More

For me this was the best place to visit in Milan. It is impressive to see how big is this fresco. Make your reservations in advance in order to get a place and pay less. Worth a visit.

This painting is absolutely fantastic and known worldwide, but seeing it is an experience apart. I booked a ticket with a guide on the official site, it didn't cost much more, i think 2,50 euro, but it worth it 'cause you can ask questions and learn details otherwise not displayed. Due to the maintenance of the painting, you are allowed... More

My husband and I have travelled the world and have seen a lot of art, including some the most famous pieces of work. This is by far the most amazing piece of art work I have "experienced". My husband and I debated whether it was worth 80 euro for a 15 minute viewing and ultimately chose to include it in... More

I was in Milan in 1995 and the Last Supper was closed for renovation. Our guide was excellent even given the short time she had to explain, and made sure to have a few minutes at the end to sit in silence contemplating Leondardo's masterpiece fresco. The direct internet booking site gave us some difficulties, so we ended up reserving... More
