Delve into the darker side of Turin and explore the city's links to magic and the occult. Whether you believe in magic or not, the Black and White Magic Evening Tour of Magic Turin is a fascinating look at another side of the city. Come and discover Turin in a very unusual way. For 2.5 hours you will be plunged into the darker side of the city.
Turin has two souls: one linked to white magic, the other to evil-black magic. You will explore them both during a "magical mystery tour" starting from Piazza Statuto, the "hearth of darkness" of the city, a part of the city that Romans, who founded Turin, considered an unlucky area and used as a burial site.
At sunset you will drive past scary stone monsters, sinister architecture, unusual statues adorning ancient buildings and a small strange detail of the Duomo, which houses the famous Holy Shroud.
Even if you have never believed in magic, come and discover the place considered by the guru's of occultism as one of the worlds capitals for both black and white magic.
It was a good tour and our guide was very friendly and informative ... even changed the drop off point to accommodate our Hotel location. The only thing was we were the only 2 English speaking people on the group so we had our own guide while we were walking, but while on the bus the announcements were in Italian and we had a ONE ear bud to our English guide and VERY difficult to hear.. If we had been advise in advance, we would have brought our own TWO ear buds with better sound quality ... a little thing, but would have made a world of difference.

It was awesome. Turin is the coolest city. We were in a small Anglophone group of four and our guide was superb. We had radio contact as the main group was Italian-speaking.

I enjoyed the tour very much. Out guide was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. In the tour she incorporated both mystical beliefs and history of the city. She showed us signs and told us their meanings. She also told us what to look for during our own journeys around the city. Can't say that there were some really strange things but the stories were very intricately told and engaging : There were only five of us English speaking people so we got a lot of attention from our guide Manu.

We were the only two English-speaking tourists in the group and had the pleasure of our own private guide. She was amazing, super knowledgeable and friendly. The information and stories concerning Turin were interesting and sometimes a little spooky! Altogether a great time and an interesting introduction to an often missed destination.

The guide was good, but the rest of the tourists on the bus were Italian, so we could not hear anything the English-speaking guide said on the bus. The tour should have been equipped with audio devices like other Viator tours. The content of the tour was interesting, nevertheless.

Sites shown were not really that unusual. The tour guide made it interesting though.
