This below piece will will help.

        UIWebView webView = new UIWebView(View.Bounds);
        View.AddSubview(webView);
        var documents = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments);
        var yourWonFolderPath = Path.Combine(documents, "YourWonFolder");
        var localDocUrl = Path.Combine(yourWonFolderPath, TicketInfo.TicketNumber + ".pdf");
        webView.LoadRequest(new NSUrlRequest(new NSUrl(localDocUrl, false)));

Well, at first, you need to add two views.
On the first view place a button. Connect this button to a second view(create a modal segue)
On the second view you can place a label or something different, it doesn't matter.

Zoom out your storyboard(in Xcode storyboard editor, "-" icon), select and set the second view class, for example, "view_two". Save and return to Xamarin Studio. Restart Xcode. Now, in Xamarin Studio select Your class file(in this case - view_two.cs) and open it. Then, insert this code in the "center" of the document : 

public override void ViewDidLoad ()
        {
            base.ViewDidLoad ();

            this.webView_login.LoadRequest (new NSUrlRequest (new NSUrl ("http://vk.com")));
        }

In the View's ViewDidLoad method:

string url = "http://vk.com";
webView.LoadRequest(new NSUrlRequest(new NSUrl(url)));
