8 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 Chiesa di Santa Maria del Monte dei Cappuccini and Giardini del Belvedere. Venture out of the city with trips to Santuario Basilica di Montis Regalis (in Vicoforte), Cuneo (Piazza Galimberti & Centro storico) and Castello della Manta (in Manta). Next up on the itinerary: take in the awesome beauty at Colline di Torino, stroll around Parco della Burcina, take a stroll through Via Roma, and admire the striking features of Villa della Regina.

In April in Turin, expect temperatures between 59°F during the day and 47°F at night. Cap off your sightseeing on the 15th (Mon) early enough to travel back home.
