Turin Small-Group Guided Bike Tour of City Highlights
Make your own way to meet your guide at the designated point in central Turin. Begin with a safety briefing and introduction, then start exploring on your bike in Porta Nuova. Ride by commanding 19th-century squares and buildings where Italy's royal kingdom originated. See elegant cafes and traditional shops from the Belle Epoque, and the Royal Palace of Turin, before entering the oldest part of the city, which contains the medieval quarter and Roman ruins. Pedal along the Po River, a major river in Italy, and roll into Valentino park, where the Royal family once spent their summers. You'll also stop by landmark buildings including Mole Antonelliana (home to the Museo Nazionale del Cinema), the Neoclassic-style church Gran Madre di Dio, and the Egyptian Museum. Your tour ends after 3.5 hours with return to your starting point.
