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.

Take a break from the city and head to River Rafting & Tubing and Lake Orta. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Basilica di Superga and Castello di Fenis. Explore Turin's surroundings by going to Reggia Di Reale (in Venaria Reale), Piazza Motta (in Orta San Giulio) and Cantina Fontechiara (in Borgomanero). The adventure continues: see the interesting displays at Museo Nazionale del Cinema, don't miss a visit to Piazza Castello, admire the striking features of Palazzo Reale Di Torino, and take in the spiritual surroundings of Duomo di Torino e Cappella della Sacra Sindone.
