Overview of your Turin tour:

The Royal House of the Savoy left their own mark through some dazzling and unusual baroque architectures, regarded as some of the best in Italy. The city, in the 17th and early 18th centuries became home to two genius architects, Guarino Guarini and Filippo Juvarra. Discover the grand history and the visionary style of the baroque buildings through a walking tour in the historical centre, followed by a visit to the magnificent Chapel of the Holy Shroud, where you will experience how a baroque masterpiecce comes together. Discover Turin with a Torinese guide to have an insider's perspective on the art, the history, but also the everyday life in the first Italian Capital.

Your Turin tour itinerary

The exact itinerary can be customized to fit your interests. - We'll start from one of the most elegant and peculiar squares in town: Piazza Carignano, where you'll admire the wavy facade of the Palazzo Carignano. - Then we'll get then to the Church of Saint Lawrence to admire the dome from the inside. - We'll follow with an entrance to the Royal Palace complex to visit the Chapel of the Holy Shroud (Shroud not visible - not kept here anymore), where philosophy, art, religion, maths, theatrical illusion and architecture come to life all together. - We'll finish visiting the Consolata Shrine and, if you like, we'll have a Bicerin tasting together in the place where it was invented. The tour runs hail or shine. Takes place half outdoors and half indoors, the path is partially covered under the arches. The Royal Palace is closed on Mondays, ticket is 15€ per person.
