Begin your tour by boarding the new electric boat. As the boat sets off along the canal, see the "case di Ringhiera", typical houses of the working-class districts of Milan. Cruise towards the popular 13th-century church of San Cristoforo while listening to informative commentary from your guide. See where the delicious Marscarpone cheese is said to have been invented as you float down an alley of cheesemakers.
Come across the historic headquarters of the Canottieri Milano Olona, one of the longest-running rowing clubs in the city of Milan, with a history of over 100 years behind it. Pass by the famous Vicolo dei Lavandai, an architectural wonder that in the 18th-century was in charge of washing the linen of wealthy families.
Cross the Scodellino bridge and reach the modern Darsena, an area of entertainment on the water, full of busy bars, restaurants, and clubs. It is still today one of the main centers of Milanese nightlife.
Float towards the Trophy bridge and finally come to the Conchetta designed by Leonardo da Vinci. Experience the 14 navigation basins of the Conchetta that connect Milan and Pavia. It is still operational five centuries after its construction.

Tutto molto bello e organizzato nei tempi previsti. L ‘ unica pecca era l’ audioguida scaricata con codice QR sul proprio cellulare che non funzionava bene.
The driver was nice and the boat had plenty of room. The QR code scan to listen to the audio wouldn’t work so it was basically just a boat ride
It was good. Nice boat and friendly staff
Trip itself was fine. no guide so cant comment. unfortunately not very interesting sights. on the plus side if we hadnt booked this we wouldnt have been in this area at all. it was a lovely day so chilled in one of the pizzeria with a wine for a while after which was nice .
