The experience

You meet your guide in front of the Royal Palace and walk straight in without waiting. The priority ticket is already arranged. Inside, the tour moves through the royal apartments, ballroom, throne hall and gallery, stopping to take in the ornate decorations and furnishings that mark this UNESCO World Heritage Site as one of Turin's most opulent sights. The Chapel of the Holy Shroud is part of the route, and the walk ends in the palace gardens.

The group stays small, which means you hear the guide clearly and move at a pace that lets you actually look at the rooms instead of filing past them. Two hours is enough to see the main spaces without the day becoming a marathon of marble and gilt.
