3 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 some cultural insight at Basilica di Superga and Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile. Popular historic sites such as Reggia di Venaria Reale and Duomo di Torino e Cappella della Sacra Sindone are in your itinerary. Explore Turin's surroundings by going to Parco Naturale del Monte San Giorgio (in Piossasco) and Zoom Torino (in Cumiana). There's still lots to do: explore the world behind art at Egyptian Museum of Turin, examine the collection at Museo Nazionale del Cinema, make a trip to Piazza Castello, and steep yourself in history at Palazzo Reale.
