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.

Let the collections at Il Bucintoro dei Savoia and Museo Egizio capture your imagination. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Castello e Parco di Masino and Castello della Manta. Venture out of the city with trips to Castello di Aglie (in Aglie), Basilica di Sant'Andrea (in Vercelli) and Castello di Serralunga d'Alba (in Serralunga d'Alba). And it doesn't end there: pause for some serene contemplation at Basilica di Maria Ausiliatrice, take in the spiritual surroundings of Chiesa Maria Vergine Assunta, step into the grandiose world of Castello di Verres, and contemplate the long history of Pont-Saint-Martin.
