I can only recommend Georgio as a guide, he really knows his city. Lots of little details that cannot be found in any travel guide. You really get to know Milan with him. Thanks

nice tourist tour on the roof of the cathedral

It's okay, actually a tourist must. The cathedral is nice, a tour of the jesta is a dream, you don't have to go to the castle.
