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.

Venture out of the city with trips to Abbazia di Santa Maria di Vezzolano (in Albugnano), Reggia Di Reale (in Venaria Reale) and Lake Orta (in Orta San Giulio). There's much more to do: get engrossed in the history at Museo Egizio, make a trip to Piazza San Carlo, examine the collection at Museo Nazionale del Cinema, and test your problem-solving skills at popular escape rooms.
