Alex did a wonderful just explaining the history and architecture of Torino to my wife and I during our 2-3 hour walking tour. He also provided us with a Vermouth tasting (not generally part of the tour) at a local shop.

Our guide Lina Brun was outstanding

We saw the most beautiful the most beautiful buildings Art Deco (Liberty style). We saw the ones in the center beginning with the Subalpina Gallery and then took the tram to see the others (the best ones)

Discover Turin’s historic past!

Carlo was wonderful! He took me to significant historical locations as well as great social gathering places. The cafés were amazing! He shared how they played a part in the history of Turin. I also had the opportunity to enjoy a beverage of chocolate and coffee! The dark chocolate I purchased was delightful! Turin is definitely a gem in the rough. The pace here is much more relaxed than Rome or Florence. It still has a significant role in Italy’s history. The tour is a must!

Fun and Informative

Because of the holiday weekend, my husband and I had a personal tour of Turino! Stefan was a great guide and a wealth of knowledge. He took us to a wonderful local market and gave us a great tour. His recommendation of location for a place to eat was the best! We had so much fun visiting Turin and taking this tour. Thank you Stefan for making this day special!

Guide was great! Very knowledgeable, fluent English, passionate about Turin and Italy, personal with tourists. We went inside of many churches, visited central city, old Roman city, and open market. Great intro to the history and architecture of Turin.

Sorry for dragging Stefano out through the rain, but the tour was great!! He personalized everything about the tour for us and was extremely knowledgeable about the city and it’s history. Hope to return someday for the Chocolate Tour. Sounds like it will be amazing!!

Tina P, Oct 2017
We really enjoyed our tour with Stefano. He emailed and texted us ahead of time to make sure we knew where to meet. It turned out that we were his only clients that day so we basically had a private tour. He is very knowledgeable and happy to share that knowledge with us. We also had a nice chat over coffee at a local bar. I liked Turin a lot. It was not crowded with tourists and there are many interesting things to see there. I would definitely recommend booking this tour.

Kathryn G, Oct 2017
The walking tour was a good intro to Turin, which is a flat city, set out on a grid and made for walking. As well as showing me the main sites, my guide Stefano also told me about the Torinese drink Bicerin and where to drink it, explained the city's superstition involving a bull's private parts the bull is the symbol of the Turin, and lots more not covered in a guidebook. Definitely recommend this tour.

Lovely Turin! It was a very informative and delightful walking tour. It was a very small group, just a couple and myself. The tour guide -sorry I don't recall his name- did an amazing job. Turin is underrated, many things to see. This is a great way to learn about Turin. It is a walking tour, so plan accordingly, comfortable shoes! Hope you enjoy the market. Highly recommended!

Stefano was really knowledgeable about the history of the city and buildings. He was very friendly and pleasant. There was only the two of us and Stefano so we had a very personal tour. I would definitely recommend him personally as a guide.

This was an amazing walking tour.Our tour guide Stefano took us, we were only two, to many historic sites. I would say he showed us all the sites and he also explained the history of them. We enjoyed the Porta Palazzo Market, the visit to the church of the Holy Shroud, the piazzas,churches, and the Royal Palace at Piazza Castello which is beautiful. We walked during three hours and ended this tour at the River Po bridge in front of a beautiful church. Stefano was very polite, clear in his explanations in English and pacient with me who likes to see everything in detail, even he re-scheduled my tour. He also suggested us names of typical foods. This was a very special walking tour!

I loved our walking tour. Stefano our tourguide did an amazing job not only showing us the sites, but answering questions and going the extra mile to share the wonders of Turino with us. I really loved this city and i am sure that it had alot to do with our walking tour with Stefano. I would highly recommend seeing Turin using a walking tour. Thank you Stefano.

This was an amazing tour with an even more amazing tour Guide Stefano. He was patient, spoke English fluently and knew the city like the back of his hand. His history about Turin and the monuments was complete and this is one individual who needs to be recognised by Viator!

Heather C, May 2017
The small group walking tour of Turin was wonderful! Stefano our tour guide was super knowledgeable and friendly. It was only my husband and I on the tour so it was very personalized. We saw many of Turin's main sites and we stopped and got a coffee at a coffee shop, which was honestly my favorite part. He also recommended great places to eat and visit in the area. The tour was around 2 - 2 1/2 hours, so wear comfortable shoes. It was a great start to our trip and a good introduction to Turin. Great tour!

DREW_M, May 2017
The guide was very friendly and informative and took time to answer our questions. We saw the highlights of Turin plus some areas we might not have seen ourselves such as the Roman area, and the guide gave us all the historical details of each area. The group was small and the tour was very relaxed and informal. I would highly recommend this tour.
