A day dedicated to the great landscapes of 19th-century Piedmont, among noble residences immersed in nature, historic gardens, and villages of authentic charm.
With a comfortable minibus transfer departing from Turin, you will reach the evocative Castello Reale di Govone, a splendid Savoy residence set on the gentle hills of the Roero. The guided visit leads through the castle’s majestic Baroque halls and its elegant historic park, where nature unfolds in perfect harmony: monumental trees, shaded avenues, and panoramic viewpoints accompany the experience in a refined and relaxing atmosphere.
Strolling through the gardens and park, you can fully appreciate the charm of the former aristocratic summer residences, once cherished by the nobility for their tranquillity, landscapes, and proximity to nature.
The day continues with lunch at a traditional Piedmontese restaurant, featuring a regional menu including a starter, a first or second course, water, and coffee.
In the afternoon, the itinerary continues to the historic village of Pollenzo, a site of extraordinary historical and cultural charm. Originally a Roman city and later transformed in the 19th century into a royal estate by King Charles Albert, Pollenzo still retains an elegant and timeless atmosphere, with Neo-Gothic architecture, historic courtyards, and the magnificent complex that hosts the University of Gastronomic Sciences.
A walk through history, nature, and local culture, discovering the most authentic and refined side of Piedmont.
