Highlights

Our local guide will share Turin’s significance in shaping Italian identity. Known for its chocolate, the city thrived as royal families indulged in tastings. Begin at a historic café with the original Bicerin, a drink enjoyed since the 1800s. Stroll through some of the landmarks and discover hidden gems. Then, in a cozy setting, start a lesson about chocolate, with insights given by the guide, by tasting exceptional dark chocolate made from just 10% of the world’s finest cocoa. Then, sample traditional chocolates like Gianduiotto and Cremino. The Gianduiotto, named after Gianduja, blends finely ground hazelnuts with chocolate—originating in 19th-century Turin when cocoa was scarce. All products are 100% organic and “bean to bar.” Pair your chocolates with Barolo Chinato, an aromatized wine from the Barolo area that complements the chocolate flavors perfectly.

  • 5Excellent Chocolate experience

    Started 1030am and our palate was ready. Guide Fabio started us off w Bicerin at Cafe Elena , a beautiful street side cafe. We got some history the proceeded down the block to a private chocolate experience, paired w a borolo. We were only 3 which added to experience. Time slipped by our guide but he never rushed, in fact he called to say he may be a few moments late for his next tour. I’d give 6 stars if possible

  • 5Enjoying delicious new tastes.

    We enjoyed tasting the chocolate and learning how cocoa beans are made into chocolate. Fabio was very knowledgeable about the chocolate-making process and history and made the experience fun.

  • 5I loved that Fabio...

    I loved that Fabio considers this an experience rather than a tour. Indeed his own knowledge of chocolate and the nuances of different chocolates made it so. Gracie Fabio!

About Turin

Turin is the elegant Piedmont capital below the Alps, a city of arcaded avenues, royal palaces, a famous Egyptian museum, chocolate and vermouth.

Turin was the first capital of unified Italy, from 1861 to 1865, and before that the seat of the Savoy dynasty, whose baroque palaces and wide arcaded streets still define the centre. Piazza Castello holds the Royal Palace and Palazzo Madama, and Piazza San Carlo is a grand square with twin churches. The Mole Antonelliana, a tower topped by a spire, houses the National Cinema Museum, and the cathedral keeps the Shroud of Turin.

Top-ranked sights in Turin: Grinzane Cavour Castle, Piazza Castello, Piazza San Carlo.
