8 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 Cervino Breuil-Cervinia Ski Area (in Breuil-Cervinia), Reggia Di Reale (in Venaria Reale) and Forte di Bard (in Bard). There's much more to do: explore the world behind art at Museo Egizio, don't miss a visit to Piazza San Carlo, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Basilica di Superga, and test your problem-solving skills at popular escape rooms.

For traveler tips, where to stay, more things to do, and more tourist information, refer to the Turin trip planner.

If you are flying in from The Netherlands, the closest major aiports are Malpensa International Airport, Turin Airport and Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport. In February, daily temperatures in Turin can reach 5°C, while at night they dip to 0°C. Finish up your sightseeing early on the 22nd (Fri) so you can travel back home.
