What are people saying about Shroud of Turin

Very informative and interesting
I am a Lutheran believer without any strong views of relics. The Turin Shroud is still more than a relic, it is such a well-known part of the history even without taking any stance as to its actual provenance.
The museum was very good and it was nice to see so much angles and facts. The private guide was wonderful, thoughtful and very informative.

Very informative and inspirational. Marella offers a wealth of knowledge that you won’t get by just visiting the museum.

Eugenio, our guide, was very knowledgeable and passionate. He helped bring to life the history of the Savoy royalty, the architecture, and the context of the paintings and relics. The Holy Shroud is not exposed. You will see the beautiful chapel and the box where the shroud is kept.

Donatella was prompt and very kind. She spoke my language perfectly and very clearly is very knowledgeable about the topic of the Shroud of Turin. She answered all of my questions thoughtfully and gave me time to absorb the information. She was kind enough to show me things that aren't usually on the tour but she thought I would find interesting during my visit to Torino. I do recommend this tour!

Very enjoyable tour!
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour. Our ability to interact with her, ask questions and rearrange the timing of some of the stops was a real plus as we had other commitments that afternoon. Loved it!
