About this experience
At sunset, the mystical and elegant Turin acquires a special charm. During a walk through its ancient places, you will hear about iconic palaces and squares, historical cafes. By climbing the hill, you will admire the city and the Alps 'like from a postcard,' and in a non-touristic little restaurant, you will end the evening with the best local aperitif.
What to Expect
First Capital of Italy, or Little Paris
You will learn why Turin is called the most French city in Italy, hear about the times of ancient Roman construction, and discover the secret of the black and white heart of the first Italian capital. You will see its postcard - the experimental tower Mole Antonelliana, get acquainted with the architecture of Palazzo Madama and Carignano, the Royal Palace, and the neoclassical church Gran Madre, see 'Mussolini's Finger' and historic cafes, as well as stroll along the river Po and through the Royal Gardens.
Secrets of Turin
On the way, I will tell you why Turin is considered the homeland of chocolate, where so much mystique comes from here, and what impressed Nietzsche and Alexandre Dumas here. In addition, we will talk about the significance of the kilometer-long arcades of Turin, the animal-symbol of the city and the fate of the once strongest football club Torino. And by the bull bringing luck, you will be able to make a cherished wish.
'Postcard' view of the city and the best aperitif
In the second part of the program, you will climb the hill from which you will see an unforgettable panoramic landscape of Turin and the Alps in the rays of the sunset. And in conclusion, I will take you to a restaurant where tourists practically never go, but the locals adore. Here you will taste drinks of excellent quality - wine or a cocktail - accompanied by a large tray with various snacks. At the end of the meeting, I will give you a checklist with the best locations of Turin for further independent travels around the city.
