Turin Underground Evening Tour

Turin, Italy

If you want to be captured by a secret Turin you can take part in a guided tour of underground Turin. Beneath the hectic and bustling city of Turin lies another mysterious and unknown world where time seems to stand still. Fifteen meters below the city, the tunnels of the citadel and the sub-cellars of the Baroque palaces are waiting to let you discover their mysteries, on sites of ancient murders which have never been solved.

The journey goes down into an air-raid shelter and includes the Royal ice depots of Porta Palazzo. Just another way to show you an unusual and exciting historical aspect of our city!

Excellent English speaking guide who told a good story and kept us engaged. The transport and organisation was fine too. BUT! The tour itself is arguably not worth it as you can see two of the four sites elsewhere for cheaper: the Pietro Micca museum (excellent); and the small ice deposits are substantially available to view in a carpark near the central market. The underground church is of minor interest (and the special performance there is only relevant to Italian speakers) and the air raid shelter is just a room, though unavailable elsewhere and representing just 30 minutes of the entire tour. Go for the story from the engaging guide, but the sights seen are not worth the price. Further, our tour started at 20:00, which meant it was very difficult to arrange dinner in an Italian city as most restaurants do not open until 19:30. A 20:30 or 21:00 start would certainly make eating arrangements easier.

It was great having a guide that really spoke English. Most tours have guides that think they speak English but we can not understand them. The tour was great. They really know what they are doing and we learned a lot about the city and its history. Definitely a great tour.
