The Turin Chocolate Class & Tasting
Is this experience for you?
Tour Highlights
Full Description
Stroll through some of the landmarks and discover hidden gems. Then, in a cozy setting, start a lesson about chocolate, with insights given by the guide, by tasting exceptional dark chocolate made from just 10% of the world’s finest cocoa. Then, sample traditional chocolates like Gianduiotto and Cremino. The Gianduiotto, named after Gianduja, blends finely ground hazelnuts with chocolate—originating in 19th-century Turin when cocoa was scarce.
All products are 100% organic and “bean to bar.” Pair your chocolates with Barolo Chinato, an aromatized wine from the Barolo area that complements the chocolate flavors perfectly.

Piazza Vittorio Veneto is a large and historic square in the center of Turin, surrounded by Baroque buildings, cafes, and restaurants. It is dominated by the Church of Gran Madre di Dio and offers a vibrant and lively atmosphere, especially in the evening.
At the heart of the square stands the equestrian statue of Emanuele Filiberto, Duke of Savoy, a prominent figure in Turin's history. Flanked by twin churches, the Church of San Carlo and the Church of Santa Cristina, the square is a stunning example of baroque architecture.
Piazza San Carlo is not only a picturesque destination but also a hub of activity. Locals gather here to socialize, enjoy a coffee at one of the many cafes, or simply soak in the beauty of their surroundings. It's also a popular spot for events, festivals, and cultural celebrations, adding to its allure as a dynamic focal point of Turin's city life
