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.

Popular historic sites such as Castello di Grinzane Cavour and Castello di Issogne are in your itinerary. Get some cultural insight at Santuario della Consolata and Castello di Serralunga d'Alba. Venture out of the city with trips to Lillaz Waterfalls (in Cogne), Castello di Verres (in Verres) and Castello di Fenis (in Fenis). Next up on the itinerary: pause for some serene contemplation at Santuario di Oropa, relax and float downstream with a rafting and tubing tour, take in the spiritual surroundings of Sacra di San Michele, and explore the ancient world of Teatro Romano.
