10 days in Turin Itinerary

A city of technology and industry, Turin is in northwestern Italy, a one-hour drive from the French border and slightly more than that from the Mediterranean Sea.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Santuario della Consolata and Centro storico. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Turin: Piazza Galimberti (in Cuneo), Castello della Manta (in Manta) and Mondovi (Giardini del Belvedere & Funicolare). And it doesn't end there: don't miss a visit to Chiesa di Santa Maria del Monte dei Cappuccini, take an in-depth tour of Museo Egizio, pause for some serene contemplation at Santuario Basilica di Montis Regalis, and step into the grandiose world of Castello e Parco di Masino.
