15 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.

Get out of town with these interesting Turin side-trips: Orta San Giulio (Spiaggia Miami, San Giulio Island, &more), Aosta (Parco Regionale del Mont Avic & Parco Nazionale Gran Paradiso) and Castagnole Monferrato (Ferraris Agricola & Cantina Sociale di Castagnole Monferrato). There's lots more to do: get engrossed in the history at Museo Egizio, examine the collection at Civic Museum of Ancient Art (Palazzo Madama), see where the action happens at Juventus Stadium, and stroll around Parco del Valentino.
