See Piedmont’s elegant capital city

You’ll start from the historical center of Turin, famed for once being home to the Italy’s former Royal family and thus home to some of Europe’s most elegant palaces. The Palazzo Reale, one of the six royal residences in Turin, is a must-see while in the city, with its beautiful gallery and gardens, as well as the famous Musei Reali di Torino that is attached to the palace.

Then onto to discover and taste some of Turin’s specialties: chocolate, bicerin coffee, Vermouth, and of course that classic Italian tradition of tasting delicious appetizers while enjoying an aperitif at dusk.

Discover the treasures of the Italian countryside

Uncover hidden gems like the picturesque Medieval towns like Saluzzo, a community surrounded by majestic mountains. Stroll down the narrow streets of a place lost in time, experiencing all of the palaces, castles and abbeys along the way. Another option is to go trekking across the beautiful alpine landscapes while visiting typical stone villages to sample local dishes.

Travel to local farms and markets to see how popular regional dishes are prepared, or choose from a variety of local wine districts to see, including Langhe, Barolo, Barbaresco, and Roero. Discover the centuries-old tradition of winemaking with your knowledgeable private guide.

While touring this beautiful region, don’t forget to stop in a tiny café to see how the Piemontesi live and eat.

Taste the local favorites of the region

Why not indulge and try dishes made by the region’s best cooks? Want to dine in a castle? Done! Or turn the tables, and spend the day learning how to make some regional dishes!

Also, if you visit Piedmont between October and November, you should absolutely go hunting for truffles. This region is famous around the world for this culinary delicacy. If you are visiting at another time of year, you can explore the spumante cellars – where the Italian ‘Champagne’ we use to celebrate all festivities is made.
