Italy, 8 Days · Tailor-made by car
Route through the House of Savoy's Piedmont Region
A trip for foodies and lovers of cities packed with history, stunning scenery and spectacular palaces
Set out on this incredible road trip to explore the picture-postcard landscapes of northern Italy, from the ever-vibrant Milan and the idyllic surroundings of Lakes Como and Maggiore to the elegant city of Turin and its breathtaking surroundings, dotted with villages famous for magnificent House of Savoy palaces, fascinating mausoleums, hunting lodges and characterful historic quarters. It's also a tour for lovers of great food, as this area of Piedmont is famous around the world for being the birthplace of the "slow food" movement. What's more, Piedmont cuisine and its array of premium-quality products has been wowing gourmands outside Italy for decades now. En route, you'll get to savour the delicious chocolate of Turin, the famous truffles of Alba and the excellent wines of Barolo. And work off excellent meals at renowned restaurants with relaxing walks and bike rides.

Destinations Visited
Important remarks
- Triple rooms in Europe are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.
- Check-in time at the hotel on the day of arrival depends on each establishment, but in no case will it be before 3:00 p.m., unless otherwise indicated.
- The proposed excursions and tours for each day are purely suggestions, as you can tailor the trip to suit your times, tastes and needs.
- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.
- Hotels usually have cots available. Otherwise, babies will have to share a bed with an adult.
- To pick up your rental car, you'll need a credit (not debit) card in the name of the person who made the booking, who must also be the named driver of the vehicle.
- Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.
