Tour description
Turin is Italy's most underrated major city: the first capital of a unified nation, the cradle of the House of Savoy, and a place of grand boulevards, miles of porticoes, and magnificent Baroque squares. On this walking tour, your local guide will reveal a refined, aristocratic Turin that most visitors never take the time to discover.
We will trace the story of the Savoy kings, admire the famous Mole Antonelliana soaring above the rooftops, and step into the world of historic chocolate shops and marble-clad cafés where Italian unification was once plotted over espresso. Add a touch of Turin's occult mystery, and you have a walk that is elegant, delicious, and endlessly fascinating.
