Description
Meet your guide at the entrance of the palace and start exploring the halls and rooms where the Savoia, the Italian royal family used to live. Learn about the secrets and the legends around the royals and discover their golden treasure: a stunning palace celebrating luxury. Visit the amazing throne room, a brilliant example of the Italian baroque style. Gold and gemstones embellish the magnificent hall, symbol of the opulence of that period. Enter the royal office where the king signed his coronation documents, and many other fascinating and luxurious chambers, such as the ballroom or the apartments.

Guide was knowledgeable but very lively and interactive. Perhaps too focused on the furnishings for my preference but others were more interested. Nevertheless a professional and relaxed guide made me glad I had taken the tour

What a great experience visiting this palace! It is a Little Versailles! Very baroque and rococo but impressive. The guide Djada was exquisite in her knowledge of the House of Savoy and its players. A wonderful visit!

Grazie mille Dario! Siamo felici che tu abbia apprezzato la visita e la preparazione della guida. Un piccolo gruppo permette proprio di vivere il Palazzo Reale in modo più coinvolgente e piacevole. Ti aspettiamo presto per un’altra esperienza con noi ⭐️
Nadia did a fantastic job explaining the history of the palace and the Savoy dynasty. It was our second tour of the day with her and we were delighted she was our guide. A very interesting tour. Highly recommended.
Thank you, Neil! We’re so pleased to hear that Nadia made your visit to the Royal Palace memorable and that her explanations about the palace and the Savoy dynasty enriched your experience. We’re happy you enjoyed both tours with her! 😊
This was an awesome tour. The palace is big from the outside, but hidden behind its plain walls is a grand experience of wealth and history. Our guide was absolutely lovely and passionate about the history of the palace. I’m not going to pretend I had a lot of context going in, but I’ve now got a base understanding of the Savoys and how they ended up ruling Italy. Definitely looking forward to learning more! Overall, it’s a gorgeous building with lots of art, armor and design that anyone would find interesting. Intersect that with history from our guide and it was a ton of fun.
Thank you so much for this amazing review! We’re thrilled that the tour helped you discover the hidden treasures behind the Royal Palace’s impressive walls and gave you a deeper understanding of the Savoy dynasty and Turin’s history. We’ll be happy to welcome you back for more discoveries! ⭐️

What a magnificent palace! If you have time for only one place - this is it. Chiara gave us a fantastic tour - explaining all the highlights and the history. After the tour, you can stay and delve deeper into what interests you. If you are short on time - this is perfect!
Thank you so much, Irene! We’re really happy you enjoyed the Royal Palace and that Chiara made the visit so engaging with her explanations and storytelling. It’s great that you also appreciated having time afterwards to explore at your own pace. Hope to see you again soon in Turin! ⭐️
