Hello and welcome to Turin! As a guide, I am driven by the passion of sharing the heart and heritage of Piedmont—a land I have loved and explored since I was 14, when I first set out on my 50cc motorbike to uncover its hidden treasures. Even today, I am still discovering new natural and man-made wonders at every new trip. I was raised on the farm of my grandfather, who taught me in the traditional language the ancient art of winemaking, together with the deep connection between this land and its people. Through my tours, I offer you an authentic journey into Piedmont’s ancestral heritage, where culture, history, and nature intertwine. As a trained political scientist, I also bring a unique perspective, helping you understand Piedmont’s rich historical and geographical significance, in its human connections across the Western Alps and its historic maritime gateway to the world, Nice. Last but not least, I have a professional background as a diplomat. I’ve lived and worked in the Caucasus and Central Asia, lands whose rugged landscapes wonderfully echoed Piedmont’s beauty, reminding me daily of home. This experience honed my skills in organizing group tours, managing arrivals, and briefing international guests. During my postings’ vacations, I took great joy in introducing foreign colleagues to Turin’s rich history, culture, and culinary traditions. Over the years, I also became a proud father of three, which also helps me to be a friendly guide, engaging travellers of all ages with patience and humour. Let’s explore Piedmont together. Through Turin’s baroque palaces, sharing the secrets of local winemaking, or leading you off the beaten path, I will ensure that this land and its way of life will provide you with insightful and unforgettable experiences —slowly, deeply, and with passion. I am a professional tour leader for Italy I can customize every journey according to your interests and expectations I am an author about travel experiences ('Storie dal Mondo' - https://mn.kel12.com) I am an experienced driver and I can also of course accompany you in your vehicle or arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Turin tour

At the beginning of the 18th century, the House of Savoy rose to prominence as a major player on the European political and cultural stage after being elevated to royal status. The dynasty’s newfound prestige was reflected in its patronage of art, urban planning, and architecture. As a result, magnificent buildings emerged around Turin, designed by renowned architects such as Filippo Juvarra. Trained in Rome and at the Spanish court, Juvarra brought a distinctive vision that blended grandeur with refinement. This tour offers the chance to explore the most exquisite gems of the "Corona di Delizie" (Chain of Delights)—the House of Savoy’s royal residences, designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
