9 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.

Museum-lovers will get to explore Museo Egizio and Galleria Sabauda. Get a sense of the local culture at Museo Nazionale del Cinema and Castello di Grinzane Cavour. Change things up with these side-trips from Turin: Sacra di San Michele (in Sant'Ambrogio di Torino), Orta San Giulio (Lake Orta & San Giulio Island) and Forte di Bard (in Bard). And it doesn't end there: examine the collection at Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile, catch a live event at Juventus Stadium, take an in-depth tour of Museum of the Risorgimento, and contemplate the long history of Palazzina di Caccia di Stupinigi.
