Explore the beauty, history, and culture of Northern Italy with a day trip from Milan to Turin and Genoa. This self-guided bus tour takes you to two remarkable cities, offering an ideal mix of art, architecture, and stunning landscapes.
First, arrive in Turin, the refined capital of the Piedmont region. Known for its grand architecture, Turin features highlights like the Royal Palace, the stately Piazza Castello, and the iconic Mole Antonelliana. Take a leisurely stroll through its wide boulevards, enjoy views of the Alps, and savour a coffee at one of its charming historic cafes. If time permits, you can visit the world-renowned Egyptian Museum or indulge in Turin’s celebrated chocolate.
Next, head to the seaside city of Genoa, Italy’s largest port and the birthplace of Christopher Columbus. Wander through the narrow streets of the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and soak in the atmosphere of Piazza De Ferrari. Take in the Renaissance splendour of the Palazzi dei Rolli and enjoy stunning views of the Mediterranean from the Old Port, home to the famous Lanterna, the world’s oldest operating lighthouse.
After a full day of discovery, relax on the comfortable journey back to Milan. As you travel through the picturesque Italian countryside, reflect on the day’s adventures, arriving in Milan in the evening.
