7 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.

Shop till you drop at Galleria Sabauda and Reggia Di Reale. Museo Egizio and Palazzo Reale Di Torino are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Get out of town with these interesting Turin side-trips: Zoom Torino (in Cumiana), Serravalle Designer Outlet (in Serravalle Scrivia) and Castello di Fenis (in Fenis). There's lots more to do: examine the collection at Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile, contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Duomo di Torino e Cappella della Sacra Sindone, do a tasting at Az. Agr. DEMARIE Giovanni di Demarie Aldo, and take in the exciting artwork at Mostra Steve Mc Curry.
