Description

Our local guide will introduce you to Turin's role in Italian identity and its culinary heritage shaped by 800 years of Savoyard rule. The tour begins at a historic café where you'll enjoy Bicerin, a traditional chocolate drink still loved in 19th-century cafés. As you visit key landmarks, you'll discover the city's history. Next, you will move on to a cozy place, where you will have a lesson about fine chocolate, with exquisite dark chocolate made from just 10% of the world's finest cocoa, all 100% organic and “bean to bar.” You will then sample traditional chocolates like Gianduiotto and Cremino. Gianduiotto, made from finely ground hazelnuts and chocolate, has a rich history dating back to the 19th century when cocoa was scarce. Then, you will enjoy a wine tasting featuring two iconic Piedmontese wines, paired with an organic meat and cheese platter. Your guide will teach you about the aromas and nuances of each wine for a professional tasting experience.

Good chocolate, wine, meats and cheese. We loved it.

Fabio is extremely knowledgeable in wine and chocolate. He combines this with his skills of tasting chocolate, meats and cheeses alongside good wine to give an entertaining and educational couple of hours. His task was made harder by the incredible heat being seen in Italy. We really enjoyed the session and had to try some more of the excellent Roero red wine after he'd left us in the atmospheric Bistrot Turin.

Operator response

Thank you for sharing this wonderful review! It sounds like I delivered with an engaging and educational session. It's a shame about the heat we're having and I'm glad you still enjoyed it. Trying more of the excellent Roero red wine afterward must have been a perfect way to keep the experience going. I'm happy to hear you had such a memorable time!

He was the perfect host and a must do if you’re in Turin!

Fabulous tour

I had such an amazing experience at the chocolate and wine tasting! It ended up being just me on the tour thanks to some cancellations from other groups, so I learned a lot! Fabio was an amazing tour guide and I am happy to have gotten recommendations for other places around Turin that I didn't expect. Grazie Fabio!

Operator response

We’re so glad you enjoyed the tasting and that Fabio could share great insights and recommendations around the Turin area. Sometimes a small group makes the experience even more special—grazie for joining us in Torino

Great way to spend an afternoon.

Nice relaxing walk through the plaza, followed by the chocolate and wine tasting. The guide was very knowledgeable and super pleasant about n his presentation. Definitely worth the price, both in $ and in time. And the white wine that was presented was really remarkable.
