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.

You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Col di Sampeyre and Antica Torroneria Piemontese. You'll visit kid-friendly attractions like Room Escape Games and Sacra di San Michele. Venture out of the city with trips to Castello di Grinzane Cavour (in Grinzane Cavour) and Giolito Cheese (in Bra). There's still lots to do: examine the collection at Museo Nazionale del Cinema, stop by Claudia Lotta Sweet Designer, and indulge your taste buds at Mercato Centrale Torino.
