Listen to the history and curiosities of the most mysterious and cosmopolitan city in Italy. Pedal towards Piazza Castello with the Royal Palace, walk through the alleys of the oldest part of the city, the Quadrilatero Romano, the heart of Turin's nightlife. Do not miss the view of the Mole Antonelliana, symbol of the city and home to the National Cinema Museum, a place of worship for lovers of great cinema. Pedal along the Po and enter the Valentino Park, the green heart of the city where you can see numerous species of birds, trees and squirrels. Visit the Medieval Village, for a dip in the past. On the way back, admire the imposing Great Mother of God, a church famous for its connection with esotericism and the legend of the Holy Grail.

This tour is the perfect choice if you like baroque and landscape art, history, royal mansions, medieval castles and want to enjoy the riverside, squirrels and ducks in the most ancient public park of Turin. The Valentino park is a must to see in Turin and you will appreciate it even more with someone who has been living in the city for 44 years that will show you with knowledge and humor (why not) also more hidden spots, in addition to the main features. It's also nice to walk alone, but with an insider's explanation, without missing even a corner and in good company, it will be another story! The park hosts the Rock Garden (crossed by paved paths, little streams, water features, terraces, contemporary sculptures), a French style baroque castle owned by the royal family, a charming Medieval Village with its artisan shops and drawbridge, the impressive Fountain of the 12 Months and much more. Plus, each season has its own charm and you won't be disappointed even in the cold months!

Turin is one of a kind, built at the foot of a hill that preserves almost 700 km of pedestrian paths in its woods exclusively dedicated to trekking and hiking. The proximity to the historic center and the setting of the hill itself make this experience in contact with nature unique. Through easy trekking with moderate elevation gain, you will have access to two of the most famous points of interest in the Piedmontese capital. You will reach the Basilica of Superga and the Victory Lighthouse at Colle della Maddalena. Sinoira snack in a typical Piedmontese restaurant.
