Turin — 2 nights

City of Magic

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.
Step out of Turin with an excursion to Reggia Di Reale in Venaria Reale--about 32 minutes away. Next up on the itinerary: get engrossed in the history at Museo Egizio, don't miss a visit to Piazza Castello, pause for some serene contemplation at Basilica di Superga, and steep yourself in history at Duomo di Torino e Cappella della Sacra Sindone.

Plan my trip to Turin with suggested itineraries provided by Inspirock.

Valletta, Malta to Turin is an approximately 5-hour flight. You can also do a combination of bus and train; or take a bus.

Bordered by the Alps on three sides and often overlooked by casual tourists, the Piedmont region is famous for its wines, including Moscato D'Asti, Barolo, and Barbera, to name just a few. Piedmont's cuisine is renowned throughout Italy. Its exotic white truffles--a precious ingredient used in first-class restaurants around the world--are often compared to gold because of their staggering cost.
