5 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.

Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at Casa del Miele and Mondovicino Outlet Village. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Marchesi di Barolo - Sede legale, magazzini e spedizioni and Castello di Issogne. Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Turin: Wine Tours & Tastings (in Neive), River Rafting & Tubing (in La Salle) and Castello Reale di Sarre (in Sarre). There's much more to do: look for gifts at Salumificio Maison Bertolin, do a tasting at Azienda Agricola Fratelli Aimasso, take a stroll through Via Roma, and take in the spiritual surroundings of Santuario Basilica di Montis Regalis.
