This tour is the perfect choice if you like baroque and landscape art, history, royal mansions, medieval castles and want to enjoy the riverside, squirrels and ducks in the most ancient public park of Turin.
The Valentino park is a must to see in Turin and you will appreciate it even more with someone who has been living in the city for 46 years that will show you with knowledge and humor (why not) also more hidden spots, in addition to the main features.
It's also nice to walk alone, but with an insider's explanation, without missing even a corner and in good company, it will be another story!
The park hosts the Rock Garden (crossed by paved paths, little streams, water features, terraces, contemporary sculptures), a French style baroque castle owned by the royal family, a charming Medieval Village with its artisan shops and drawbridge, the impressive Fountain of the 12 Months and much more.
Plus, each season has its own charm and you won't be disappointed even in the cold months!
I'll be also at your complete disposal for any questions about Turin/Italy: what to visit, where to eat, transport, culture, language, etc. to make your experience as useful as possible. Consider me like your LOCAL FRIEND, not a guide!
∎∎∎ DON'T BOOK IF YOU HAVEN'T CONTACTED ME FIRST: the tour can be in different languages/times to be agreed together (NO calls, please)
W.App: +39 33 94 60 48 85
MINIMUM 2 people required.
*** Some areas of the park (i.e. the medieval village) are closed and will reopen in 2026, but the tour is still very enjoyable.
We will go inside the Valentino park and we will see all open public spaces focusing on their history, beauty, function, past and present, in a relaxed walk. We will not enter the castle or any other building/ museum (otherwise the tour will last too long).
Consider that even the Turinese themselves book the tour to really get to know the city in a new way or even as a gift for boyfriends, family, friends. Who are punctually enthusiastic about it, because living in a city is not enough to get to know it thoroughly and in an intriguing way. I will be at your complete disposal for any question: what to visit, where to eat, transport, culture, dialect, life in Turin... ∎∎∎ Unfortunately we do not receive notifications of questions written here on the site, so always contact me on the W.app number +39 33 94 60 48 85 before booking!
You will make your own way to the meeting points
