The experience

The Royal Palace of Turin sits at the heart of the city as the former residence of the Royal House of Savoy. You meet your guide in front of the palace and skip the line at the door with your priority entry ticket, heading straight inside to explore the opulent rooms. The palace interior holds the royal apartments, ballroom, throne hall and gallery: each one furnished and decorated in the style of centuries of royal occupation.

The Chapel of the Holy Shroud is part of the palace complex, and the tour includes time there before you walk through the beautiful palace gardens. The whole experience takes 2.5 hours. Your guide speaks English, Spanish, Italian, French or one of two additional languages, and children from age 3 can join. The palace is wheelchair accessible throughout, and public transportation options are available nearby if you need them.
