A Week In... Italy's Hidden Wine Country

Set in one of Italy's most beautiful – and often overlooked – regions, a week in Piedmont unfolds among rolling vineyards, hilltop villages, and timeless landscapes where food and wine are a way of life – an immersive experience for those who appreciate both flavor and a true sense of place.

Spend two nights in the elegant capital city of Turin, birthplace of the Fiat and inviting with refined architecture, tree-lined boulevards and culinary treats of chocolate, Barolo wine and more. The house of Savoy and centuries-old palaces welcome you to Venaria Reale, dating back to Roman times and opulent with treasures royally inspired, and a slow food lunch, truffle hunting and wine tasting celebrate the bounty of the Langhe landscapes. Enchantment awaits in Stresa, nestled on the shores of Lake Maggiore in the Gulf of Borromeo, where private cruises showcase opulent villas and a feast of freshly caught seafood for Tauck guests only.
