4 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 Parco Nazionale Gran Paradiso and J Museum - Museo Della Juventus. Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Turin: Centro Storico (in Alba) and Castello di Grinzane Cavour (in Grinzane Cavour). There's still lots to do: take in the spiritual surroundings of Basilica di Superga, take an in-depth tour of Egyptian Museum of Turin, don't miss a visit to Piazza San Carlo, and examine the collection at National Cinema Museum.
